It is... they were running around so fast, its hard to get a good focus! The shot was underexposed and very blurred. The focus point was at the wheel axis above his head. Don't wanna waste this shot coz his experssions is so cute! So did lots and lots of USM!

Hahaha! Mines' on slimming diet...
I dunno, actually that's about as big as they grow as I understand. They are not the normal type of hamsters which can get quite big. I feed them about once in the morning when I go to work and once before I sleep.

They are on a healthy diet of mostly wheat. And the occational hamster mix. They seem to like sunflower seeds but I am not giving them v.often as I heard that its fattening. OTT, they also love those red star thingies found in some hamster mix.

Its a packet of cheap wheat I get from NTUC. They seem to love it. Cheaper than getting from a pet shop.

Huh?? This is not the sunflower seeds (sunflower seed fattens them)... its the wheat stuff... its supposed to be healthy.
Anyway, they seem to like to excercise. Always see them running round the wheel. They seem to love that somehow... ur... dunno wat is so fun abt that... but they love it.
