Great work on this litter Hekomi. From start to finish! They are all so adorable and will all be in homes where they are loved. That's how to breed hamsters! I am so looking forward to your hamstery growing and benefitting hamsterdom. When Arya grows up and has litters I may take a ride up North and grab one, especially if it looks like her. She really is something else.

Awh, thank you! I'm still biting my nails a bit over houses, as one of the potentials hasn't emailed me back in a few days. We'll see how it goes, and if we hold onto them for a little while longer that's fine. I sent her an email last night, I just don't want to pester.

I have a feeling when Arya has her litter, she'll have a bit of a waiting list... haha! If only I can guarantee her babies will be as splashy as her!

The pups are all doing well - the three girls being rehomed are in spare cages with bars... and oh gosh, the bar chewing. x_X I remember why we use bins and tanks! I'm doing as much as I can to discourage it. SO and I are working out tails off on the bins, but we're waiting on a few hardware orders.

I weighed our keepers last night - Arya was smallest at 109g (she just got her 8'' WW so I think that would be why), Dusty at 110g and Amaretto at 112g. They've passed Chai in size. Big babies, but they're solid and lean. Dusty got to explore the bed last night (I brought him in to see my SO and he leapt out of my hands onto the duvet). I can't wait until they're in their permanent bins.

All in all, while there were a few bumps in the road, this was awesome. And I certainly couldn't have done it without Nancy! Once all the pups needing homes are in homes, I'll breathe easy.

Haha, me neither! I'm still not sure who is next - if we'll choose Darissa and Biscotti, or wait for Pekoe and Amaretto.

Mini-Dar goes to her new home today, where she will be made a princess in her fantastic new digs. Her humans are calling her Soska (I think that's the right spelling). Almandine and Raggie go to their new home tomorrow, together, which will be really nice.

I'm already feeling the "ALL THE BABIES ARE GONE" feeling. Hah. SO says he is glad to have his bathroom back - Almandine, Raggie and Mini-Dar were in it.

I have updates from Mini-Dar, we shall see how Almandine and Raggie get on today. They'll be on their way to new homes in an hour
