He's looking lovely, he's quite a bit lighter looking that the others but very handsome. He's very speedy in the video but not quite as speedy as Zen was throwing her sand everywhere the other day lol. He looks really sweet in his private corner, very dignified of him

Jaska won't do anything in public so we gave him a modesty screen (half a tissue box lol) for his bath. They all have their own ways

Zeki's a dom spot BP, so white with darker markings, the others are all normal/agouti.

Bless Jaska with his modesty screen, that really made me smile

I think they all enjoy a little privacy spot somewhere!

Ah thank you for explaining that Cypher, I'll get there one day I hope with all the different colours

Chinesey's are a lot easier than all the other species with only three colours normal, dom spot & the rare black eyed white (bew) so I'm sure you'll soon get to know them.

Wonderful photo of the handsome Zeki, he is such a beautiful colour. Lovely watching him enjoying running in his wheel in the video and appears he also enjoyed his seed rewards in the photos. He looks adorable having a groom in private corner - Pumpkin likes to groom in the privacy of her grass nest.

Eek & squeak at zeki, what a little cutie, his colouring is blooming lovely!

All that is available in the US is normal color that I know of. Seems like somewhere there would be dominant spot but not anywhere near where around here.

Zeki has a beautiful coat

Thanks SKB, Lizzy & CB

I think I nearly gave myself a heart attack this morning! Zeki had been out for a run in his wheel & his daily extras, stuffed his pouches & gone back down his burrow to stash it all as he usually does, I knew he'd be gone for a little while then pop out again to see if he could wrangle any more out of me by looking adorably cute so I went off & left him for several minutes, walked back into the room & realised the cage door was still open!
My sweet little man was just running in his wheel as if nothing was different at all bless him

As soon as he saw me he came running to the door to greet me & got some extra seeds, I was probably too shocked by what I'd done to resist his charms lol!
I did once leave the top door of Zephyr's cage open for a few minutes but never in all my ham years have I left a front door open, I think I spent half the day going round checking they were all secure, again & again!

Things were a little more relaxed when he came out in the evening & I gave him a little pot of sprouts to enjoy

He's rather more refined about it than Zen but still tucks in enthusiastically.

Been there, done that one cypher and it is certainly a heart attack moment when you realise. I did it once overnight....and found Mocho nearby, all he wanted to do was to get back home. I was so lucky. Now I use bulldog clips so I can't forget!

Awww he's so soft and squishy looking in those pics, just want to pick him up and give him a cuddle

The same thing happened to me this morning too, though it was Boris escaping from his ranch! (still not sure how he did it). I was sorting some stuff in Artie's cage who decided my finger was just the treat he was looking for and he bit me, then i see Boris running across the hamster room! So there I am with a bleeding finger trying to scoop up Boris lol, felt like I was in a carry-on film!
