We got a campbells dwarf hybrid on the 2nd July (Her name is Ruby), we were told she was roughly 9 weeks old at the time.

On July 5th she weighed in at 38g
On July 16th she weighed in at 48g

Is a 10g weight gain in 11 days normal for a dwarf hamster? She is looking kinda round.

Ruby has a large bin cage and seems pretty active on her wheel, flying saucer and playing with her toys.

When we got her she was being fed on P@H muesli but she is now eating Bunny Dwarf HamsterDream Expert like my other hamsters who i'm pretty sure grew slower than this.

Is she just being a piggy?
Is this due to the food change?
Expecting?

What do you guys think?
