Something wrong with him?

Question
I am sorry to bother you with such a stupid question, but my mother would like me to find out if there is something wrong with my new hamster. So we took him from Petsmart and my mom said : Why is his butt a weird shape. My Mother seems to think that his butt is weird. I have to admit it is a little different. It is kind of triangle shaped, as in at the end of his body it doesn't really become round. The only problem is that his butt drags on the ground when he runs in his wheel and walks around. So, is there a problem?

Answer
Hi Catherine,

Chances are his testicles have just recently 'dropped' lol and  in males hamsters they do become very large, so this is nothing to worry about. However, should you notice a change in your hamsters behavior such as not eating/drinking, being lethargic, take him to a vet for a check up.

Thank you for your question :)
