  1. Some hamsters, if they are white and have red eyes, are albino. Not all white hamsters with red eyes are albino, though. Cinnamon and all cinnamon combinations normally have red eyes. The cinnamon gene dilutes the color of the coat and ears and also gives the hamster red eyes. Sadly, some hamsters with red eyes are blind. This should be easy to test in your hamster.


  2. If it is still hairless, red eyes are usually a tell-tale sign of albinoism

  3. it is really genetics

    if your hamster has white hair and seems really pale, then it is albino

  4. ITS ALBINO!! COOL!!!! :)

  5. y do most blondes have light green or blue eyes and most mexicans have dark brown???

    It dont mean anything

    i bet your hamster is albino!!!

  6. It will probably mean she's an Albino

    I have an Albino hamster and he is gorgeous <3

    I'm not sure if they change as they get older (I only got my Albino hamster 2 days ago)

  7. it doesn't mean anything, its just genetic, just like humans inherit different colored eyes, rodents often have pink or red eyes, especially white or light colored animals.  sometimes they're eye color changes as they grow, just like humans, but sometimes it's for life.  but it doesn't affect them.

  8. Nothing's wrong with it, it sounds like it's a albino hamster

  9. Its an Albino

  10. It doesn't mean anything... It is just the color of her eyes. Like, my eyes are green and the guy's eyes sitting beside of me is brown! Some people say that it is because they are evil.. But that isn't true.
