Hello everyone

[flower pot]

Last week I got hybrid hamster from P@H. I used to have syrian hamsters as a kid, so I know a little about looking after them.

Ludvik is silver-grey male and seem to be very courious. It behaves comepletely different than syrian hamsters - is quicker, do much more climbing and burrowing and doesnt use his cheek pockets as my previous hamsters.
It is really fun to watch. Quite courious, when I put a hand to cage to replenish food - takes the treats from my hand, sometimes climb over my hand. And tries to bite it - doesnt jab it but tries to nibble it gently.

I will pop now now and again, to ask for some advice. Also, I think the photos of your pets from other threads are lush

Hello and welcome,

Sounds like he is a very energetic little chap!

Hello and welcome to HC!

Love the name Ludvik. He sounds lovely and the nibbling is normal. He's probably checking for something to eat and should grow out of it as he gets older and gets handled more.
One of my dwarfs did eventually accept that i am not edible and quit the nibbling.

You could add a photo of Ludvik because he sounds lush too.
