Question!

How do you tell girl hamsters from boy hamsters? Because Lizziey left hers here (yes, I know, we're not thrilled about it either) and I want to know which is which... or, at least, what it means when both of them seem to have balls (but might not because they're hamsters and I don't know anything about them).

Show them When Harry Met Sally. If they scurry away... they're boys.

All the bot hampsters I've had have large male parts. Really large.

You've had cyborg-hamsters? Cooooooooooooooooooooool :0D

Male hamsters have a more tapered end, female are blunter.

A couple of years back I became an unwitting witness to a moronic scene in a pet shop. A middle-aged woman with her teenage daughter were inspecting rodents.

Woman (addressing the shop assistant): Um... This little hamster here seems to have a growth. Is that a growth, that?
Shop Assistant: No. It's a male.

(you'd have thought she'd be better aquaited with the mammalian reproductory systems... oh well.)

I think, that males tend to have a larger gap between their..male bits and their butt than the female. Or maybe thats guniea pigs..or both. Something like that anyway.
