Awww he is adorable Pinkneon!

and I quite like Duck haha I would've never thought of that name

I think it may be too soon to tell the colour, I'd wait it out a little bit. Cupcake was literally black when I got her, then she became brownish and then she was light brown and black and Souffle confirmed she is indeed a Yellow Black. But it took a few months before her colour enriched and stabilized

@ GIS yes Sables have eye rings.

Aw, Duck looks adorable. So glad you have opened your heart to a new furball.

I think we are all different in our grieving processes and only we can decide when we are ready for a new little angel. After Fluffy passed, I actually got Cheeto only a week later. But when I saw her, I just knew she had to be mine and I am thankful for her every single day. But with Roxy, it has been different. She has been gone about a month and I haven't been able to get someone new yet. I've looked and whatnot but it hasn't felt quite right yet.

Anyway... I can't wait to see more of your new addition! xx

Hello there little Duck-ling! He is sooo cute!

The time is right when your heart is ready to share a new little ones life. Congratulations on your new baby - he is adorable. You will soon have him nice and tame I'm sure. He will soon grow a name as you get to know each other. Beau? Prince?
edit ...oh he has a name! Very cute Duck

He is gorgeous! I don't think it's too soon everyone is different. Pebbles I got the day after Poppy passed & Daisy a couple of days after Cookie (she'd been unsold in a Pet Shop for 6 months!). It just felt right. The soonest I ever got a new one was Penny. I was asked to rehome her the day I lost Huxley. I didn't want too & was not ready but I took her on, it hurt like mad to be honest, as Huxley was my first ham. However I don't regret it at all now, as she is one of the most sweetest hamsters I've ever owned.

I'm sure this little fella is going to be so much fun.

I must admit I know when the time comes for Fudge, although I do NOT want to think about it, I think I would have to get another ham quite soon after unless it really didn't feel right. When I lost my last mouse back in May I went out and got 3 more the next day. I'm one of those people that needs small furries in their life and I can't stand the sight of the cage sitting there empty plus I know I'd be giving another little one a good home.
He does look like he's going to be lots of fun when he's settled in, can't wait to see how his colour develops as he gets older

YES. I'm exactly the same way.
