Another tip: if you need to remove a soiled food hoard, replace it with clean food so they don't return to an empty hoard. And I usually try to do this when my hammy is out in her playpen so she doesn't get stressed about a giant hand reaching into her nest to steal her food!

lucky! my hamster pees in his BURROWS and no not just the burrow entrance, he does it right at the corner of the cage which is the least accessible place for me, and then proceeds to get super angry when his burrows are destroyed. like bruh thats on u for peeing so far in. oh and he also pees on his wheel so much to the point where i have to wash that every 2-3 days.

I'm SO happy I found your channel. I just purchased a winter white dwarf and your videos are what made me quickly fix the mistakes I made (like too small of a cage, wired one, and so on). Now I am trying my best to provide my baby with everything she needs and hopefully, we end up forming a strong bond.

I am so grateful for this channel. I watched so many of your videos before getting my little Portia, (named by my daughter) times have changed since i had my hamsters as a child some 20 years ago. I am guilty of having those generic hamster cages you buy at the local pet store that gives them no space and no depth to burrow. I now have a 50 gallon tank for our little dwarf and she seems to love it. Im proud of her enclosure and all the enrichments we provide her, but im grateful for the knowledge i can pass to my 6 yr old daughter on the proper husbandry these cuties need. She hides little treats in portias enclosure so portia has to "hunt" for her favorite treats besides her food. So from my little family to you, thank you. Here is to a healthy life for our little girl and lots of love for any future rescues we may have. ❤

In my case, it really helped to put up a camera so you can keep an eye on the times they are awake. My hammy will wake up for a while at around 12 - 1 pm, so i often use this time to do a quick spot clean if i can't do it in the evening 😊

I'm so lucky that our current hamstergirl Peanut mostly pees in her sandbath and sometimes the wheel - easy to clean places. I barely have to spot-clean at all. And she's not learned that hamsters sleep during the day, so she's often awake by herself during the day and wants to get picked up... so we don't have to wake her to clean the cage. I clean it every about 8-9 weeks, keeping up to half the bedding and mixing that with new bedding. Then the cage is redone, usually like it was before, so she doesn't get too confused, although as any hamster, she hates that we clean the cage. She's such a sweet girl 🥰

She’s so cute and I’m getting my dwarf hamster a much bigger cage and given her much deeper bedding and she has burrowed a nest underground instead of her plastic nest box on a high shelf in the cage and have scattered her food around the cage instead of putting it in one bowl on a shelf. Your reels are fab. Thank you xx

When your parents call you lazy and a bad pet owner for doing exactly what you just explained in the video. I tried to tell them multiple times how stressful cage cleaning can be for them, let alone how much it would cost to remove all the bedding every single week, but there's just no way to reason with them. They also always yell at me why I didn't disinfect the whole cage, when there is really no good reason to. I can't show them your video, since they don't understand english. We also don't have any dedicated hamster channels that would be in language they could understand. However, I myself am happy that I found your channel year ago. It really made me better hamster owner. Thank you for your hard work ❤

What I struggle with spot cleaning is there is so much bedding that poop seems to be spread out and I literally cannot even find wet spots. It’s just in random spots in small amounts. I just bought a large vista enclosure and tons of options from Niteangel to place before we bring our new love home and I’m so scared about missing dirty spots in all that lol I will try changing out quadrants every week and keep and eye out for any spiked corners or spots.

The problem I keep running into with leaving a hoard of food is mold mites. I’ve had several issues with mold mites. I spot clean and don’t do a big clean out until 4-5 weeks have past. I will keep some old bedding for smell but if they get a breakout, the entire cage must be cleaned. They aren’t harmful to hamsters, just gross.

i had ants and any leftover food soon became the source of infection; either molt of other gross stuff. so i'd be VERY reluctant to leave any food debris mixed with bedding anytwhere. it's just not hygenic. when i had a hamster 40 years ago i cleaned his cage thoroughly DAILY. do you leave your food debris lying around in your apartment? of course not. food rotts.....

I think the way she's doing it in the video would work well for a skittish hamster. A skittish hamster might prefer to stay in the cage, hiding on the side that's not being cleaned. Or you could lure it into a hide that can be picked up and moved to a play area or spare cage until cleaning is finished. But disclaimer, I've never actually had a skittish hamster, this is just an educated guess based on what I've read of hamsters plus my experience with skittish guinea pigs.

Thank you so much for this vid. I was struggling a little about cleaning my hamsters' cages but gain a lot of tips from you. Only regarding the sand, as you said if they are not peeing in the sand, there's no need to replace much. But how long that can be? Im still using the same sand (but sifting it every week) for about 2 months now. There is no smell and no clumps. They seem to use it well still, just how long is long? Haha. I wonder this especially when I read on Bucastate instruction on the packaging says to change the sand regularly (in days 😂).

Since you only clean the sand bath if they pee in it, is that the same for the dig boxes? Do you just leave the substrate alone, or does it need replacing every so often? Thanks so much

How do you move your hammy when you're trying to change their enclosures? I don't really wanna stress mine out but I want to upgrade into a better bedding and stuff for her in general..

Do you find that wooden hamster enclosures stink more than full glass ones like fish tanks? I don’t know which to get- wood or fish tank
@VictoriaRaechel
@VictoriaRaechel Жыл бұрын
It would depend on how you seal the wooden enclosure, if you use nothing and they pee on the wood then it will smell more than a tank.

Hi, im thinking of getting a hamster soon. I found a video for i DIY cage that seemed quite easy and im wondering if a cage that was 120cm x 60 cm is big enough and how much floor space square inches is that? :)

I make that 1116 square inches. 😊 I guess that is the external measurements though and you would need the internal ones.

How often do you do this? I have been spot cleaning my hamster once every week. I will only remove the soiled bedding and leave everything else. I see some people spot cleaning daily, but I know this would really stress out my hamster. He's a little shy and likes to hide in his burrows, so when I spot clean I have to remove him from his cage into a playpen/deep tub (he chews through big fabric playpens) which he really really doesnt enjoy no matter how many activities I give him to busy himself with. Food doesn't distract him, neither do toys or hides, so the whole time I am cleaning he's pretty much doing laps around the tub looking for a way out. So ultimately, I think I already stress him out a bit with doing it weekly. Am I doing it too often, too little, or the right amount? Thanks for the advice!

I do it as often as I need to :) If you can spot clean daily that's fine since you aren't removing all of the bedding at a time just the dirty spots but you also don't have to spot clean daily. You know your hamster best so I think your method is just fine :)

Is it ok to use a older cage in a bigger cage because my hamster loves to sleep underneath it and has more room to burrow and run on her wheel. I had a hamster before her and she would go potty in her bedding in a box but my new hamster only goes in sand and makes a mess! But she is a lot more calm and just likes to hang out while my old hamster would love to explore and climb and escape from her cage to run around! She was so close to death like 5 times but somehow survived everytime 😂. The cage I have in the bigger cage is metal from the older cage until I found about a bigger cage and just made it to climb on.
