>>I don't dare try to pick up one of those devils right now LOL Are you implying a mouse weighs more? Thats interesting, The hamsters look so much bigger, couldn't be all fur could it?
>>Foot Hill Reptiles

If you are talking any sort of dwarf hamster they are easily smaller than mice. Probably by 1/3 if I were to guess. I don't have any to weigh right now. I also know that they are largely fur. I watched some of my ratsnakes eat them and the pelt slips all over and makes them awful to swallow.
