I noticed that Buster can eat solids now.
So when we give Blackie her snacks for the day (apple, peach, carrrot, etc...
We give buster a tiny slice, so yesterday I gave blackie a tiny piece of beef and buster a really tiny piece, blackie stuffed it in her cheek and while Buster was eating his piece blackie ran over and ate it.
This morning (or yesterday) my mom gave them some peaches and Blackie once again stole his slice.

Just now there was an apple slice at the bottom of the cage, and its been there for over 30 minutes, so buster found it and started eating it, at the time Blackie was biting on the bars and stopped.
I was watching her because the computer is right next to her cage, then she took a sniff and grabbed the piece right out of his mouth, how mean!!
Buster doesnt walk to well but he still smelled it and tried to take a bite but Blackie ran to the other side of the cage.
and she didnt even eat the whole piece!
Now I know why hamsters have cheek pouches because they like to take each others food. Tongue out

Blackie made me so mad when she did that, I read on a site that apples can prevent dehydration in hamster young, also cucumbers, i'm off to get some cucumbers tomorrow.
I mean she had her own piece but she put it up and then took his piece from him, she is too spoiled and selfish!!

I took blackie out and put her in the ball to run around, and gave buster a nice cold piece, and he loved it!!
It was cute when she first did it but now its frustrating.
I just wish she'd share even though she gets her own bigger piece.


Buster walks around the cage now, but not too well,.
I hope he makes it into adulthood.
I cannot wait till his eyes open!! he is soo cute
It seems like he will have a little brown in him, I dont see how because blackie is of course black and when I got her at the store the others was black with a little white, must trace back to ancestery.
(uh oh buster is eating the apple again)

Blackie is a good overprotective mother, when buster leaves the nest she will grab him up and put him back

I might set up a page it will be http://www.petsplaces.com/adorable_ani/ if nobody has that url

Why don't you put a partition in the cage when you feed them, like a piece of cardboard.
