Our winter white dwarf hamster (Nova) is around 9 months old now. We always had problems with keeping our last winter white’s weight up, as she was never excited about food. Now we have the opposite problem! Nova loves her food, and I’m wondering if she’s overweight. She’s 41g, and I’ve seen healthy weights stated as anywhere from 30-60g. Is there any way we can tell if she’s overweight for her size by looking at/physically examining her?
