Well just to clarify djtj, I said I already had the tank, the $75 was for the supplies, i.e. food, bedding, water bottle, exercise wheel etc....and oh yeah the hampster.

yuck hamsters!!!

i fully and completely recoment female fancy rats, they are soooo smart, i had 2 and a white with red eyes (also cute) well i had only 1 fancy and the white (the other was my sis's) but u could tell that mine was well cared for compaired to my sis's, mine learned sit, stay come, jump, and a few others like kisses sit up i miss sweet heart dearly but she got a tumor and had to be put down the others had to go too my parents dident like them as much as i did but when i move im getting a whole swarm of em well... maybe one or 2 but i loved my sweet heart so much we used to go for walks all the time, also bike rides, although she dident like the basket i made so she took to riding on my shoulder but i never had to use a leash and i also potty trained her,

I had a hamster... The first one was Mr. Ed, the second was Mr. Ed. The third one was named Jim.

Sorry you had to take the other back, how is the new one coming along?

Nice Hamster. My dog ate my last one.

I used to have a hampster called cutie, but that's a fruity name.

!!

For the record most hampsters are anti-social to begin with. They take a long time to get used to you. If this new hampster begins to misbehave, I would hesitate before returning it. It might work out with time and positive reinforcement

Well we had to take Comet back as he was just too anti-social. Couldn't pick him up at all without getting bitten. We exchanged him for a Black European hamster...he's so cute and he will also be named Comet. I'll get pics on as soon as I can.

are they banned in australia?

LOVE the name! VERY cool idea!

Try not to give the wife too many ideas huh?

Are you going to put anything else in there? I think dwarf hamnpsters are social. You might be able to give him or her some company The larger ones can get very nasty.

No problem, just wanted to make sure I was clear.

I'm not saying anything about your tank, it looks very nice, Dude just asked about how much the setup causts.

Who is the Pet for?
Hamsters are very cute, but since they have a very short life span, getting attached to one can be very difficult to deal with, even when you do everything right.

It's a very old 20 gal. high that I was going to use as another fish tank, but because of it's age and appearance (it looks like it's been re-siliconed and not very neatly I might add)I decided to use it for a hamster instead.

Dude, they sell specifically made hapster cages for about half the price Jessnick paid, and you get the hampster for free.
