soapdragon Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Following on from my last post we missed the Chinese hamsters by a whisker (sorry!) as someone beat us to it and took all 5 ! However we have just found 6 Russian Dwarf - like Fang our previous hammy - on Gumtree and are going to collect on Sunday! However, the boys would love one each but we are not sure which can be kept together 2 boys or 2 girls? These are siblings and so have been together since birth - if the worst came to the worst tho and they started to fight we'd get another cage but would like to keep them together. So, Omlet hamster keepers.....what will it be? 2 boys or 2 girls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I think my sister in laws kids had two boys. One ate the other so I would say 2 girls. Unless someone with more hamster wisdom comes along Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted April 4, 2014 Author Share Posted April 4, 2014 Well, I guess that saves on food bills tho not, of course, desirable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyhole kate Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I am another who thinks girls together are okay but not boys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 We now have Bob, a dwarf Russian, 6 weeks old! He is adorable and very friendly. The boys (and us!) are smitten! I decided that 2 together would not work in the long term - we'd be devastated if they fought and hurt each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
