At first i wondered how shitty the parachute must’ve been, but then I remembered that I had dwarf hamsters as a kid, not normal ones.
Also for some reason my mom made the mistake of getting a boy and a girl and they did exactly what you’d think. Except that the cage was too small for that many critters and the momma started eating the babies out of stress…
I had that parachute action man, and I remember chucking him down a flight of stairs. Shitty, shitty parachute. The doll itself was surprisingly well made (I guess it was drop tested a lot during production?) but weighed a ton and the parachute was hilariously too small for it
Dont worry she didnt eat all of them! I think we had like 3 or 4 generations of inbred hamsters before we finally got a second cage and segregated them.
… as an adult i am staunchly against any “pet” that has to be kept in a cage or enclosure.

Yeah rodents have interesting behavior like that. They have absolutely no qualms eating a friend or their own offspring if they need the resources.
I once had two mice. The next morning, I still had two mice, but one of them was missing its head.

Oh! The hamster mom. Not your mom.
Ok, that’s a bit less horrifying.
I witnessed the other side of that phenomenon. The babies ate the mom.
We had one pet rat then my mom let me get another one of the opposite sex. Anyways we had really bad rat infestation before we sold that house.
