At present, the common hamsters are:
1。 Pudding (the most expensive, ranging from 60- 100, very close to the people, brown)
2。 Silver fox (40 is the highest price, silver with dark stripes)
3。 Golden fox (golden, is the product of pudding and silver fox. My family has raised six new ones, ensuring pure blood and reasonable price. Do you want it? )
4。 Old man (40 is the highest price, dark brown mottled, very scary, super adaptable! )
An unhealthy hamster:
Dull coat color
Ear breakage
Chewing gum
There is too little hair on the lower part of the body.
Often "chirp"
The lower body should be dry ~ it doesn't matter if there are fecal particles
Prepare:
Hamster box/cage (usually a cage made of plastic and iron paint, with wheels inside and several layers, that's what I sell. I suggest you buy warm colors, sometimes hamsters feel uncomfortable in cold colors)
Mushroom foam (spread by gopher box, you must buy it! )
Rat food (one of which is imported from Austria at present).
Appropriate amount of diced ham, milk, diced cucumber, melon seeds (hamsters love to eat), bread worms (supplemented by protein)!
water feeder
Bathtub (just a small box for sale)
Bath sand (hamster rolled in a box with bath sand, which was later used as a toilet)
Nest! Very important! There is a small house, very cute ~
Molar stone, the mouse is holding back, super cute!
If you want to keep a mouse, don't go to a pet store to buy it, or see if your friend's mouse has a baby to give away. But how do we choose a healthy mouse? Here are some methods for your reference.
If you go to a pet store to buy it, the first thing to do is to see whether the environmental sanitation of this pet store is unsanitary and whether the clerk has a good attitude towards mice. In addition, there are several important things to choose rats and mice:
1. Choose a mouse with eyes but no shit.
2. See if the mouse has a runny nose. If it does, don't pick it.
3. Whether the shape of the ear is intact and whether there are traces of being bitten.
If this mouse is too weak or sick, it can't be bullied and bitten by other mice.
4. Teeth will not extend outward. If so, it means that the occlusion is abnormal.
5, the coat color is shiny, no hair loss, no tumor.
6. The tail can't be wet, or it's not good to have feces and dirt attached to the anus, indicating that this mouse may have diarrhea.
7. When walking abnormally, there is no sense of stiffness, and physical health is also the focus.
If everything looks good, there should be no problem. Finally, choose a mouse you like. Besides its coat color, you should also consider whether it will be close to the people. Generally speaking, after a period of breeding, it is easy to get close to the golden vole and the Gakaria vole, but it is more difficult for the Campbell vole and the Roborovski vole, especially the Roborovski vole itself is a timid and sensitive animal, so it may take some time to gain its trust in you.
As for whether to raise a good one or a pair, basically, if it is Dorset, it is best to raise more than two.
If it is a golden mouse, it is possible to keep one. If you want to keep a pair, it's better to keep them separately. When you want to mate and reproduce, put the female mouse in the cage of the male mouse, and then separate after mating.
