Syrian hamsters are my specialty, however, I have kept Campbells,Winter Whites and gerbils in the past. I can advise on most subjects associated with hamsters, including housing, bedding, feeding, handling, new borns and catching escapees. I have had some experience of various health problems with hamsters and can offer my opinion and advice on basic health issues, however I am not a qualified vet and therefore cannot recommend drugs etc. My website is www.thehamstersite.comAvailable

I can answer most basic hamster questions, such as housing, safe foods, etc. If you have a question about breeding, I will try to help out as much as I can. Although I do not condone reckless breeding. So if your just starting out, don't get upset if I don't answer you with and answer you like. Breeding is a serious topic in my eyes.

I will not answer question about why your hamster died. I'm not a vet, so I could not tell you why.

If your question is a medical emergency, my suggestion is to call your local vet as soon as you can.

I don't know anything about gerbils, so please, don't send me questions about them. Thanks in advance.

My area of expertise is in dwarf hamsters. I can answer a few of the basics on gerbils and mice. I am able to answer questions from pregnancy, caring for the mother and babies, sexing, taming, housing, what to look for when buying, diet, and socializing. I have some experiences with illnesses and other health problems but I am not a vet. I can give you my best advice on illnesses and treating them but I recommend for you to take them to a vet. I cannot answer questions on cause of death, sorry. Available
