Do you live in the UK?

If so, I'm hoping you get your hamsters from breeders - it really helps know what you'll expect in the litter. You should get a pedigree certificate with your hamsters, which will help see what your hamster could be carrying, for example if their great great grandparent was cream, then your hamster could carry cream too. I think Honey is Cinnamon+Yellow? (I'm not very knowledgable on yellow based colours). I'd give a go at trying to figure out the colours you could get but I don't want to give you wrong information so I'd wait until Nancy or someone else can help
