Robo Hamsters

[Dreamincolr]

Hi guys!
I was wondering if anyone with robos would like to tell me what it is like. I have read some places that they are "sit and watch" pets. And other places that say though they take more effort to tame they are very friendly once tame. But can you hold them at all? And, how fast is really fast?
Just any info on robos as pet would be helpful. Thanks again!

WE are talking about dwarfs right? Well if you are than if they are really young you can start handling them right away! My robo is a sweet little guy, I would practicly rough handle him(not that I would) and he would be like keep it coming! He's never bit me!

SO can you hold him?!? how young is really young....like under 6 months...or under 4? or ?? not sure
Thanks so much for the quick reply :)

Of course you can hold him just be gentle put your hand in front of him and see if he'll walk onto your hand. He'll relax more if he see's that your not a threat!

oooo im sooo excited. I wanted to get one from petsmart (because i havent been able to find any breeders). The only petsmart that is near me has one female that they knew is under 6 months...but thats all they can tell me.
Is that young enough?
Should I wait to get two so I can have a pair? Or will flying solo be ok for the little fella?
Thanks for the replies :)

Its so much better to get more than one if they are females becase they are very social
