	How basic as other than taking her out and letting her round around in her playpen, or in between my legs while my feet are next to the wall and she runs...

	They say to handle them 20 minutes a day to keep them tame. If she doesnt bite then hold her and pet her as much as possible. If she lets you reach in her...

	When I have my "kids" out (one at a time, of course), I let them crawl all over me, inside and out of my clothes. They like to sniff where the others crawled...

	I try to get Miles out of his "apartment" at least once a day for some play time. I usually just hold him and let him climb on me or on the bed, couch, or...

	Thanks to everyone for replying to my inquiry.Skeeter gets about 10 minutes twice a day out of her cage. So I guess that is OK for now. And thanks for the tip...

1859		Barb knottyceltic	Jan 3, 2005 4:19 pm
	If you scruff the hammy with enough of the skin (you need to take a LOT of it) then the mouth just naturally opens and bares the teeth. I've never had to do...

1861		John jakewc2	Jan 3, 2005 4:45 pm
	I would be really careful about scruffing hamsters. I've seen the results that can occur if you do it too roughly. It can prolapse the eyes. I rescued a...

	I have always scruffed my hamsters for nail-trimming purposes but I completely agree with your comment that it must be done very carefully and so that the...
1863		Barb knottyceltic	Jan 3, 2005 7:28 pm
	Hi John, Yes, when you scruff an adult the weight of the hamster will make the eyes bulge but that is precisely why you want to scruff and support at the same...

1865		hamster_mom	Jan 3, 2005 10:29 pm
	By looking at the photographs, I do believe that Skeeter is a dwarf. I have always had dwarfs, though, and haven't had any experience with syrians (but there...
