Hamster Weight
Hi there,
We managed to weigh our dwarf hamsters (Boris and Pasha) for the first time today, but are a bit unsure what the healthy weight range is. We have a couple of books with conflicting information.
The first book says that Winter Whites should be between 28-56g, with Campbells weighing in around 28g. The second book says that Winter Whites should be between 21-24g with Campbells around 30-50g.
The little guys (or big guys!) are around 12 weeks old now, and are both around 40g. We are wondering which book is correct, whether they are overweight, and whether they might not be Winter Whites at all.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
