  1. chech them if one has a mark that the other doesnt have then u can tell i like chibi and robo


  2. It's spelled Roborovski. Yeah, it's pretty tricky to spell.

    The names are cute. I think you should stick with those.

    As of telling them apart, I've always thought about that too. Lol. I think you have to watch them and learn their personality. For example, Chibi is the one who runs faster than Robo or Robo is the one that sleeps a lot. Hope that helps.

  3. I had the exact same problem. Telling them apart.

    Once they get used to you, pick them up and look for different marks on their bodies.

    But don't make marks on them. Hamsters are extremely clean. So, don't put marker marks on them, because they will start to pull out their fur. (Seen it happen on a friend's hamsters. Not pretty.)

    You might be able to take them to a vet and get them tagged, but I'm not sure.

    And I like the names Chibi and Robo. :3

    They are cute!

    Anyway, good luck with your new hamsters!

  4. Cute names! :D Mine are Ricky and Renaldo. We had to tell apart by noticing markings on their ears, nose, and fur. All robos

    look alike. We tell ours apart by noticing that one's fur is always slicked back and it's slightly lighter. On the other one, they gray fur underneath shows more. Also, you can tell by their personalities. For example, Renaldo is more outgoing than Ricky. The best way to tell is look at their ears and see if there are any markings such as little black splotches or pink, and maybe one has smaller ears than the other, longer whiskers, etc. If there's any size difference, that would be the best way to tell :)  Have fun!

    P.S, it's roborovski (I think...) Haha good luck!

  5. those names are cute to tell them apart if you really need to you could put a drop of food coloring on one of them.
