Or 8 weeks if a Southern show.
Though I have entered 8 week olds in Midland shows before.

I have got that right for Northern then BVH? I'm pretty sure thats what Ive always been told - but now Im wondering - feel free to correct me if Im wrong.

If not, I wonder why Northern are different? But then, they do seem different on a number of things!

I don't think the Northern have an official minimum age, but I may be wrong. Use your common sense though, you know your hamster and can tell when it is ready for the scary show world!!

i entered Orchid at 8 weeks old last week at Lymm and stated her age and no-one said anything was wrong

Mollz and Mollz mum, would Lymm not be a good one for you, as that is just South of Manchester. Much closer than Todmorden. If Todmorden is 3.5 hours, then Lymm will be about 2.5 to 3 i would imagine. Lymm is 50 mins from me, in Stoke-on-Trent, if that's helpful. Lymm is the furthest south Northern show and the only one on the West side. With you being in the SW, a NE one would be crazyily far.

p.s. i feel the same about going to a Southern! I'm thinking about staying over at Bath. I really wana see what it's like!

[Spuds Mum]

I'm going to have to find this out now, as Ive always been told 10 weeks I am sure
thanks for asking the question anyway ILMH - its got me thinking anyway!

The problem with Lymm is that this year it was the same as Romsey and BVH and BVMark were there on their own, so we felt it was better to help them out rather than go to Blenheim/Lymm and see other people.

We were thinking of Willington, but it seems that not many people from here are going and the whole point of us going is to meet a few more of you who are further up North.

There are 2 Lymms a year. i don't think the other one clashes.

i'm going to Willington and so is Holly.
