Here's the easy answer, you have a Platinum Black Eyed Argente Campbells Russian Dwarf

Here's a link to photos of Black Eyed Argentes:

Here's a link to photos of Platinums. Unfortunately there is no photo of a Platinum Black Eyed Argente:
http://www.geocities.com/aaahamsters/Platinums.html

Platinums can range in white markings from having almost none (which is what yours looks like) to having enough to almost cover the entire hamster.

Here's the hard answer- how long have you had him? Does he tend to turn whiter in the winter and more colored in the summer? If so, then he's a Winter White x Campbells Hybrid. I suspect that he might be because of the places that he looks to have the white hairs. Their location is fairly typical of the way a Winter White will moult into its winter coat. If you don't notice a shift in color with the different seasons then he is a Platinum Black Eyed Argente as described above.

Unfortunately, hybridization between Winter Whites and Campbells has become a very big problem. The commercial breeders and pet stores are the ones creating the problems. There is nothing wrong with a hybrid, other than most will be sterile.

I would need to know how old it is, is it a dwarf or teddy hamster? Doesn't look anything like any I've ever sold. If you paid around $12 or more it may be (a robvorski) may not be correct spelling, one that I haven't ever sold. The hamster in parenthesis is known for being gentle and never bites. Sorry, this is all I can offer.

Haha! i think of bill is sturdy. Cockroaches (a million checklist) Cockroaches are quickly-working bugs frequently with wings. some nicely understand species have efficiently developed to exploit human dwellings and food factors. Sounds approximately suitable to me! LOL

As far as the species, I would say it is a normal syrian with a light color coat. I don't think it would be classified as a honey, but maybe a cream. I only looked at one picture becuse my compter takes forever to load them up (slow dial-up) but from what I could see that is what it is.

it looks like some kind of dwarf hamster, not sure on coloring though, looks like a beige/honey or cream colour.

****************
If you breed hamsters then why don't you call them by name? ie: black syrian hamster, satin, hairless, etc...etc... instead of "teddy bear"?
