Small Animal Kennels
Dwarf Hamsters
White-Faced Robo
Mottled Male Campbell
In the late Summer/early Fall of 2004 something new
caught my eye. On the e-list I belonged to, there
had been a discussion about these little super
friendly typed Dwarf Hammies. They were called
Roborovski, Robo for short. A few weeks later, I
went to a local pet store and actually saw them for
the first time and thought that they REALLY were
cute and after handling them, found that they didn't
bite. So I grabbed a pair (male and female). Sadly, I
also found out that they are NOT the kind of hamster
that you want to hold. The little boy got away and we
never did find him :( But a couple of days later the
little female had some new company (in the form of
babies). I ended up keeping most of them.
The whole chain of events was set in motion by
those friendly little hamsters. I found a couple of
Winter White boys in another pet store very close to
the same time and brought them home as well. I
then got a super friendly set of females (Winter
White and a Campbell) from my friend Kat in October
of that year. Not to mention Helen, who was a
beautiful, sweet Winter White female.
Oct (2005) I picked up 7 more hamsters from PKK.
6 Campbell's and one White-Faced Robo (that she
found in Canada!!!)
That Boy was named Clown - I still have his son
Trapeze who will likely go with Lady or Gypsy this
Spring.
Double Star's current Dwarf count stands at 4.
