I've Been Licked!
Hi all,
Just thought I'd ask if anyone else has a hamster that licks when they're half-asleep. I just gave my hamster a homemeade treat, so it's highly likely my fingers smelled a little like food when I held it out to him, but he started licking the treat and then progressed onto my finger!
This is not the first time this has happened, but it's almost always when he is sleepy and kind of out of it. Silly ham.

Scarlet did that when she got her first piece of chicken.

Re: I've Been Licked!
One of mine loves licking water droplets off my fingers. It's so cute!
Another likes biting my thumb nail after feeding time. My guess is there's some food residue under the nail that she's trying to get at, but she's very careful and hasn't (yet!) bitten my actual thumb.

Re: I've Been Licked!
P2 did this too when he was just weeks old and i fed him oats. Now he doesnt anymore and i miss it! Haha what he likes to do now is nibble on my fingers and my palm which im still trying to get used to because im scared he'd bite me. Cause thats how he takes treats from me--nibble, nibble here and there then bite and grab!

Re: I've Been Licked!
My old fluffball, Tori, used to gently nibble my fingers. It was so cute and I think it was her form of affection! My ratties love to lick my fingers whenever I have handled food and I find that it tickles!

Re: I've Been Licked!
Archie used to do that, it always made me laugh.
Twinkle does it if it's human food.
