I can see that you have very good intentions from your posts and can definitely understand your frustration with commercial breeding mills. Purebred Campbells and WWs are also very rare where I am, so I sympathize with you in how hard it is to acquire good foundation breeding stocks. Perhaps you can contact some breeders in the US or the UK for advice or the possibility of shipping some hamsters to you?

Yes I can, but I don't have enough money to ship hamsters right now

I don't want to wreck your plans but am just very, very strongly against anyone knowingly risking breeding hybrids.

Sure, it's fine, that's why I tried to explain it is not my intention to breed hybrids.

So, this week I have had discussions with people from Egypt & Chile on this forum apart from lots of other members from countries we regularly see such as UK & USA. It's lovely to be so truly international, welcome

It must be very frustrating not to have the pure-bred animals available to you that you would like to have. Hopefully at some point some will be imported & you can start your ideal breeding programme. Here in the UK we can get pure-bred lines with just a little research & effort so it's easy to forget that this isn't the same everywhere.

Best wishes with your plans

Nice to meet you too. I came here because I noticed that you know A LOT I'm glad to receive advice.

Thanks to all who have showed emphaty with my plans and thank you too for being strict when it's required too
