Hi guys!
This is something I spiral every now and then about but I think its just me being paranoid.
My little George sadly didn’t come from an ethical background, I got him from a random guy who was selling Syrian hamsters but at the time I wasn’t aware of things like this. He wasn’t a lisenced breeder so I’m unsure on his ethics so I can’t comment on that.
George always had less hair on one side of his face
Depends on the photo angle sometimes it’s not noticeable at all in photos or real life but when he fully turns to that side you can see I more (especially someone who checks my hamster constantly for health checks)
From this angle there is nothing.
He had that since I got him and I thought at first it could have been due to his previous cage being maybe too small and wired? And he could have rubbed off it but the hair never really grew back at all. I tried giving him more protein but nothing at all happened. I gave some time to see as I know I panic easily but nothing really happened since.
I was thinking mites before but he doesn’t seem to scratch himself constantly, and his hair doesn’t fall out anywhere. It’s just that part of his face doesn’t grow much hair. He could just be like this but I wanna hear everyone’s stories maybe I am missing something?
Also additonally George has 6 fingers on one foot So this made a conclusion to me that the breeder wasn’t ethical at all once I learned more about hamsters.
My boyfriend noticed the 6th finger so props to him! But it doesn’t seem to affect my hamster in any way. Just his little quirk
Here you can see his extra finger on the foot. It’s also on the same side as where he has less hair
