Spartacus and Snapdragon
Introducing the new guys
Ham-dad had a fews days holiday last weekend so we wondered about the possibility of going to the show at Lymm and perhaps getting a winter white from a breeder.
It was all organised and we were going to collect two from Lilliput Hamstery at the show. It was an 8 hour round trip but it was worth it They are not brothers but their birthdays are only 4 days apart and they are coming up for 7 weeks old
One is a normal and one is sapphire. We struggled on names before we went down, and had a list of Russian names to continue the theme but nothing seemed right. When we were driving back home in the car I was looking at their birth certificates with all their anscestors names on it and reading them out. Ham-dad immediately decided he like Spartacus (he was the little normal’s great great Grandad, who was a champion) and we settled on Snapdragon after the little sapphire’s great great great Grandad.
Snapdragon seems to be the more outgoing of the two and loves climbing all over us and is happy to be picked up. Spartacus seems less sure at the moment preferring to screech at us from the safety of his cage but it’s still early days. I haven’t been able to get many pictures yet but here is a few of them on the way home.

Re: Spartacus and Snapdragon
Oh how exciting! They are both very handsome. I’ve always especially liked sapphire winter whites and thought if I ever got a WW it would be a sapphire - so I just love Snapdragon.

Re: Spartacus and Snapdragon
Hello Spartacus & Snapdragon, lovely to meet you both
They are such an adorable addition to your hamily BP, well worth all the time & effort it took to get them, what better way for hamdad to spend his holiday
They really are both such handsome little hams, I'm really looking forward to seeing more of them.
That photo of Snapdragon in his sand is so cute, he looks so teeny bless him! Good to hear he's settled so well already, I hope Spartacus soon follows his example & realises he has nothing to screech about lol! They are both so lucky to have found you

Re: Spartacus and Snapdragon
Aww what sweeties. I like the grosvenor cage. I also have the cute polka dot red bowl and the red corner litter tray.
Sparky and Snappy look lovely. My robos Flowe (rip) and Fairy came from Lilliput too!

Re: Spartacus and Snapdragon
Oh my God! There are so cute! Love the names! By the way, Spartacus is the name of Moscow's main soccer team, so you're still keeping the Russian theme
Hope that the others will accept two new members of their family

Re: Spartacus and Snapdragon
Congratulations BP to you and ham-dad for the 2 latest additions to your hamily. Long trip but worthwhile. Lovely boys indeed from an excellent breeder. Last 2 of Snapdragon in his sand bath and food bowl are super cute!
