A couple of people have mentioned yes when measuring the cage you will want to measure the very bottom, when I was demonstrating the measuring I already knew my bin was going to be too small so I forgot to show measuring at the very bottom.

I swear by bin cages for hamsters, I’ll never buy anything else. I love how I can just dump the bedding into the dumpster and it’s so much cheaper than buying a big cage.

One don't has to clean a hamster cage very often. They need their smell to feel protected. I only clean the areas where my hamster pees the most

It will only stress the hamster too when cleaning it too often. Do you clean out their house? Because you shouldn't do that either. Also bin cages imo are too small, the biggest bin cage size doesn't even meet the requirements in my country (80x45x40 was the biggest I could find). My country is in Germany and if the requirements are different: Germany attaches importance about animals well being so the requirements might be stricter here. It's always better when the sizes are bigger I work with centimetres and the minimum size here should be 100x50x50 (length, width, height) and not a single centimetre smaller! If you want to make your hamster happy you should consider that. My cage is 120x60x50(I have an aquarium because they're better than bin cages. you can even observe your hamster crystal clear) Don't EVER look at the price but only to the well being of the animal that'll live there for it's entirely life. Your hamster will be thanksful. A small cage is never better than a big cage.

OMG NO my Long-haired Syrian got out of hers, I woke up today and got out of bed and I kept her cage on the stand on the end of my bed and when I went around to see her, I had a panic attack she was out on top of her cage and I swear I screamed very loud, but luckily I caught her so don’t worry, the cage had a weak top anyway, so now we taped her cage and put it back together, hopefully it doesn’t happen again.

I seriously want to make a comment about doing research before getting a pet of any kind, especially one you have never had before. 3 nights ago, I said to my family that I wanted to get a hamster. I looked at cages online on petsmart and it was the Kaytee style ones and I didnt realize how big they were. I wanted to go the next day and get everything all at once and have it set up for the hamster before i went to work. I watched videos and started doing research that night and have been ever since. My plans completely changed and I have been looking around at different stores for different things before getting the hamster. I now understand that they would need a bigger cage obviously and that its ideal to have the cage set up before you get the hamster so that they have to wait less time in their carrier. Research is important because I almost wasted a lot of money with a small cage, incorrect bedding and food and possibly a breed of hamster that I might not have wanted as much

I've also been noticing the cage we have it's not really good he keeps falling and just climbing to other floors he also makes a HUGE mess for example kicking all the bedding out. My dad will be super good at making this I hope my hamster will enjoy.Im so happy because I'm on a low budget and can't really afford anything. He also hurts him self from digging because our cage is not deep.I appreciate this and I will definitely be watching more of your videos.

In the 90s I had a hamster with a multiple habtrail setup (the original habitrail designs) which was pretty cool. I have been thinking about getting a new hamster and I googled habitrail and was shocked to see how different their products are now. The cages are tiny! There's no way I would buy them now when a bin cage is an infinitely better idea.

Not saying that wouldn't have been a good home, but I *might* have promptly cancelled that and then went to Target and spent $20 instead on something I can move a lot more easily. Thank you! I've had my Syrian for 4 weeks and your videos are so, so helpful and encouraging. I've felt limited to what's on the shelf at the pet stores and online, but seeing stuff like this shows me that the options only begin there (and probably shouldn't be chosen.) My hammy thanks you.

I had to come back to this video and say thank you. I got my first hamster, and first pet, two years ago. She was a robo hamster, and her name was Missy. I watched some of your videos before getting her, so by the time I got her I already knew what things to avoid, and how to properly take care of her. I remember telling my family, who were pretty excited about my baby girl, to give her some space to let her get used to her cage. I learned from you that hamsters get stressed easily, and that I needed to have patience. The two years that I spent with her were full of love, respect, and happiness. Sadly, she passed away a few days ago. So while watching some of her old videos, I decided to come back to where everything started: your videos. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I’m not sure if I’ll ever get a hamster again, since I’m still grieving, however if I do, I’ll make sure to come back here :’) God bless

They are much happier now :) I have had 7 hamsters before, and had two Favola Hamster cages, but I did not think they were big enough, before that, (a few years ago) I had a crittertrail and a tiny tales cage, my dad thought the crittertrail was fine and the only reason why he disliked the Tiny Tales was because it was hard to clean. My mom thought the tiny tales was fun for the hamster. I don't think my parents understand that a big bin for 20-30 dollars is much happier for the hamster then a $50 crittertrail or an $150 Tiny Tales cage. A waste of money. 😕 I hope more people can understand that a hamster is a living thing and has feelings and emotions too!

thank you for this video and others hamster videos. by watching your videos. I got rid of all of my Habitrail cages. By watching and learning from you. I will become be best hamster owner. Right now I don't have any hamster, because they past away by natural causes. I miss them, but I have to wait. When I first I was in mourn mode when I first saw your hamster video about bin cages. I decide you are right about those Habitrail cages. They are too small for hamster. Now I am saving up, so I can make and get a large bin cage and large wheel and other things that I need for a hamster. I am so ready to get another hamster now. Once I get the correct bin cage and wheel and other things that I need for a hamster then I will get a hamster again. It feel empty when you don't have a hamster in the house. Thanks for all of your advice. You taught me things that I didn't know. I wish I had your advice when I was child. There are things I would do different. I have hamster since I was child. My mom bought me my first hamster. Since then. I had hamsters all my life. There are things I didn't know that you show me in your video. Like whey they chew on the bars (cage is too small) and why they stop running in the wheel (wheel is too small) and hamster ball (they are dangerous). Thank you for showing me what I did wrong. I am correcting all my mistake. Becoming a better hamster owner. Once again thank you for your advice and tips. You are the best.

i'm so glad there's a way to make large cages for pretty cheap, because i just got a hampster from one of my friends a few days ago, and he's in one of the Tiny Tales cages. He's been climbing on the bars and biting them a lot and I feel so bad because I just want to get him out of there and give him the space he needs. (p.s. your videos have been so helpful tysm)

Well hamster's are nocturnal/crepuscular so they should be sleeping during the day. It also may not have enough hideouts/toys to fill the cage.

I made a bin cage for the first time. It took about 2 hours and it turned out well. This is a great alternative for people who already have the tools. The bin was about $20, but then I bought a Dremel $49, Mesh wire $10, and wire cutter $10. Thankfully I already had a drill tool, tape, and zip ties. I paid $90 +. It’s about the same price for a Prevue 528. However, if you will be making multiple bin cages, then in the long run it does come out cheaper.

Manva Wali it’s depends how long you had him. Take it slow Erin’s animals has a great taming video. Start by putting you hand with treats in on the time on the other side of the cage and don’t move and wait until he gets too curious and comes over. Be patient and don’t get annoyed at him
@VictoriaRaechel
@VictoriaRaechel 6 жыл бұрын
I have a taming video which is the process that I use for all my hamsters and I would recommend watching it, Your hamster may be biting because they are curious and don't understand why a foreign object is just coming into it's cage. You may want to transport your hamster using a cup or carrier to a playpen or a dry bathtub so you can practice getting them used to interaction.
