Healthy Dwarf Hamster Weight?

[XRubyRoseX]

Okay hi everyone, I have two male hybrid dwarfs (listed as Russians at Pets at Home) and I've had them two weeks now so I'd say they're approximately six weeks old. I was just wondering what they should weigh roughly as I am going to weigh them both later as they don't seem to be getting much bigger (I know I've only had them two weeks but they're still quite small and don't seem fully grown) and also at what age do dwarf hamsters become fully grown?
One of the main reasons why I'm going to weigh them is I've been scatter feeding their food for the past week and a half, but I find most of it ends up buried underneath all of their wood shavings so I don't know how much they're eating, plus I know they store their food. Last night I put food in their dish and they didn't touch most of it, they're also really picky when it comes to their hamster treats and fresh food too. So this is just making me wonder if they're actually eating enough and if they're a healthy weight for their age.
They are also perfectly healthy and happy and don't seem at all stressed.
Any help/advice is appreciated

If you got your hams from P@H they're usually more like 8 - 10 weeks from what I've been told whenever I've been there. I got another last Friday & they said 10 weeks although I only take that as a rough guide. Mine looks a healthy size & weighed in at 37g yesterday.
I think they keep growing up 5 or 6 months but I'm not totally sure about that. An adult usually weighs somewhere between 40 to 60 grams but they can be more than that.
They're probably eating more than you think but it's always good to do regular weight checks just to keep an eye on general health.
I'm no expert so hopefully someone can correct me if any of that is wrong!!

Thanks Cyper and think they were 4 weeks ish they were still in the back of the shop but they were ready to come out for sale the day later so they let me get 2 of them. I'll post their weights later

It varies drastically I'm afraid. Our lightest is around 32g, our heaviest is closer to 70g... They are small and big examples but it shows how much it can vary.

My guy is about 40 g and is probably about 3 months old.

Weighed them, couldn't find the digital scales which made it harder but they are both around 40g.

I weighed Screech and she was 66 grams. She has put some pudding on since and I darent weigh her. Its too far to the nearest weighbridge. lol. She is a little plump but she is happy and still quick.

Well it was hard to tell the exact weight I had to use the non electric ones and the hamsters kept moving so it was hard to tell
But as long as Screech is still happy

I bought my wife some digital kitchen scales. I put a bowl on them then switch on and it starts at 0g. I put Screech in and it shows her weight and it does not matter if she moves. It does not affect the weight shown.

Both our boys are usually the same - about 56g everyday. However we had a rescue who was 43g on a good day.

It's really dependent on the ham. You'd have to compare them against their own body weight.
