I had never heard of it, but someone on Reddit recommended it. I bet if they smell you when you aren't around and they are safe in their home they will be much more comfortable being outside with you.

i used to raise syrians. great pets.mine loved sleeping in my shirt pocket or on my shoulder when i watched tv. i got my first two at woolworths dept. store, when i was 6. the person working said i could have two together. they ended up being males. being the most aggressive hamster species,they did what came naturally. they had a battle royal. herman lost an eye,and hector lost a testicle. hector made it to 3 and herman made it to 4. my syrians were my most beloved childhood pets. wish i could have some now, but i have small children and it would be best to wait until they are older. congrats, she's a peach.
