And baby wild hamsters of traditional colouring too
the wild hamsters have longer tails I noticed. But they are so cute.

They seem to spend quite a long time with the mother hamster, and are immature for a while, not quite strong enough to create a burrow of their own yet. There may be a big growth spurt suddenly when the hormones start doing the work and they get their spades 
Creating a tunnel must be really hard work and need huge motivation. Social rodents work in gangs, but hamsters seem to do everything themselves. I wonder if they steal burrows from other hamsters.
