Lol! He looks like a Syrian to me on that photo! But I'll take your word for it he's a dwarf hamster - hard to tell from that angle. Being heavier doesn't mean he's overweight - it means he's large. Hamsters come in varying sizes, within their species. For example a small Syrian might only be 100 to 120g. A large Syrian could be 270g! Average is about 175g

For dwarf hamsters the weight will vary hugely too.
