Lyra’s main “toys”, substrates and set up are switched out weekly/ biweekly as she tends to get bored easily. We didn’t add in her chew toys as I simply forgot to when filming. I can do a boredom breaker video if anyone is interested?
maybe put the granite tile with the water dish and the sand bath (plus anything heavy) on some sort of platform/stilts so if she burrows under it she won’t get crushed. (i learned this the hard way)
@@tionistone5037 my robo made a huge burrow system under his sand bath (which at the time i didn’t know about), one night i heard him screaming because he got stuck under the sand bath and ended up breaking his leg :(
I love this cage although I would recommend putting some sort of tunnel or cork log in the most empty place and maybe some grapevine wood since hamsters are prey animals and like to be covered. But other than that amazing cute, natural hamster cage!🐹🐹🐹
Thank you! I’d love to be able to add more plants to it but I’m unsure about what’s safe for hamsters. She has her pride rock blooms petals that she loves. I completely forgot to film that too 😂
Hayley Vnn I’m the same way! I’ve watched videos of safe plants for hamsters, but still not sure I want my hamster getting into the dirt and roots in case there’s anything unsafe. Maybe I’m just paranoid 😂
@@ataliedukes4591 definitely 😂 I’m so paranoid about sand too! I’m constantly researching it and changing what I use. I know some sands can contain toxins
As a chinchilla owner, I could NEVER own a hamster. I get overwhelmed just thinking about all the supplies and cage cleaning, as well as trying to find your hamster if they had burrowed down in the deep bedding. Respect
Yay your back ! Lyra is very cute and looks similar to my past hamster Willow ! I would recommend making her cage a bit more crowded as hamsters are prey animals and like to have lots of coverage to make them feel safe so that if they get spooked they don't have to go far to hide ! Other than that her setup is great , loving the neat but natural vibes it gives !
Yay! 🤗Another vid after a long wait. 😎Very sorry to hear about Bandit (R.I.P.)😭, I too lost Little Miss Muffin on Nov.23,2020 after only 19 days...😭😭 Bandit looked very much like my very first hammy named Hammy (a Golden Banded). I really like the all natural look of the cage, especially the cute floating plastic carrot in the water bottle! 😁 I use a 20cm diameter by 5cm deep ceramic planter (bamboo theme with 4 little pandas on top) for a sand bath & 4cm deep playground sand in it. My fave part of the vid was when it looked like Lyra had a little coconut hat on, hehe...oh, so cute! 😄🤗🥰
nice setup , although a tunnel or cork log would fill up some of the empty space and provide more hiding room.i really liked the glass bowl you used and the sprays for foraging .
I think I will get a few. She has just some basic logs I rotate and heat treat every so often and she loves them. I’ve never tried her with cork logs though so I’ll definitely try that x
Hi I love the cage and thank you for doing your research!!Try adding tubes under the bedding recommend toilet paper rolls. Add more branches,toys and some items for your hamster too bite and more fun stuff for your hamster. Also I recommend watching “Victoria Raechel” but nice job on the cage.
If you're good at DIYing, I'd recommend adding another platform low enough where you can put the wheel and still close the top, and keeping all the other heavy stuff like the sand bath, the stone slab and the food/water bowls all on the platforms, since the hamster's digging can make those things fall on them. I would also recommend adding more bedding and compacting it (without the hamster inside the cage) so it's stable to dig tunnels in. Right now it looks difficult to build tunnels in it.
Its very nice cage, i would recommend nineangel maze with 6 room. it gona look perfect with your cage . im using it with 3 of my hamster and they are all like it a lot
Your cage looks so pretty! I would just recommend adding more bedding, though, because the platform is so tall and your hamster might walk off it easily.
@@seastars2604 It IS better than 90% of hamster owners cages so it is obvious this person cares about their hamster. Because they care about their hamster I am sure they would like to prevent their hamster from getting hurt and they can't prevent that if they don't know about it.
I love the cage and your hammy but next time you clean it I would recommend only cleaning out half the cages bedding or once a week you can go around and look for soiled bedding and take that out but don’t clean the entire cage because you are removing all their scent ❤️ but other that that you did a great job and you cage is much better than mine 🥰
Can you share where get some of the supplies? I can’t find anything like the flax or moss near me really. Or maybe I’m not looking in the right stores.
Came to comments to see if this had already been asked, I've been hunting for something to use as a sand bath as my hamster destroyed the edible one in a few days haha
Yes I want to know because we’re on vacation and we go back home from vacation in a few weeks and my birthday present from my Mom and Dad is that I’m getting a hamster and she is going to be a girl and she is going to be 10 months old and what do I give her if she is cold because we live Chicago Illinois white eagle Naperville so it snows for us so she is going to be cold what should I put
quick suggestion, you should really crowd the cage because hamsters do better in crowded environments. thats probably why she’s getting bored so easily.
Great cage! I'm a new subscriber! Maybe just add a few sticks and twigs and clutter the cage more with little hideouts and tunnels but otherwise amazing cage!
Helo! Im plannin 2gt a hamster :3 i love the styl of ur encloser n all the enrichments tht come w/ it! i was wondering what did u buy to build the cage, or what r the measurements? or sq inches is it? i wud luv2 recreate this thank u once again :3 if u bought online may u send links.

Hi Hayley, yes, please do a boredom breaker video. Thank-you. 😁🤩🤗
yesss!
I would love to see a boredom beaker video
Could I get a link to that ADORIBLE WATER BOTTLE?! It’s so cute and I keep seeing it!!! Love all ur vids!
Lyra is living her best life :D!
Omg I love the part when your hammy is covered in the coconut fiber 😂!
It’s her favourite area in the cage 😂
maybe put the granite tile with the water dish and the sand bath (plus anything heavy) on some sort of platform/stilts so if she burrows under it she won’t get crushed. (i learned this the hard way)
Aww I hope your hammy was ok and thanks for the advice I got some today for mine x
@@tionistone5037 my robo made a huge burrow system under his sand bath (which at the time i didn’t know about), one night i heard him screaming because he got stuck under the sand bath and ended up breaking his leg :(
Could you possibly do a video about where you get everything for your cage? LOOKS AMAZING BY THE WAY!!!!!!!
Whoa the cage setup is gorgeous! I especially love the wheel!
Finally, somebody who actually acknowledges the sand baths and dig bowl!! the cage is soooo pretty-
Omg this is literally the greatest and cutest cage I’ve ever seen!!
I love this cage although I would recommend putting some sort of tunnel or cork log in the most empty place and maybe some grapevine wood since hamsters are prey animals and like to be covered. But other than that amazing cute, natural hamster cage!🐹🐹🐹
Definitely will do! I used to have some in my late hamsters cage but it’s something I’ve not purchased again for Lyra x
@@hayleyvnn4320 Yeah, I just got a cork log for my hamster Bob Ross's instagram.com/happyhamsterhood/ and it's his new favorite thing!😂🐹
@@hayleyvnn4320 you can use a toilet paper tube 💖
@@monikafhr Toilet paper tubes may be a little too small for Syrians
@@sophiaandherhamster3830 cutting one with scissors and stretching it works for me and my syrian !
Lyra is so cute! I love how natural it looks too 💕

I find chinchillas harder to care for intact I recently sold my chinchilla to get a hamster lol

Wooow i love it🤯 😍😍
I like how natural and simple it looks 🤍😍

Amazing cage!!😍 so lovely
wow i love the cage nice creativity i wish i had a cage like yours exactly
Very aesthetic ;) I feel like your motto is “there’s a place for everything and everything is in its place”.
The hamster house is pretty. Hamsters are cute, too. I enjoyed the video. Thank you.😍💗💕
To make things stand more stable I recommend putting some paper bedding on the top. (I use carefresh or kaytee)
If you're good at DIYing, I'd recommend adding another platform low enough where you can put the wheel and still close the top, and keeping all the other heavy stuff like the sand bath, the stone slab and the food/water bowls all on the platforms, since the hamster's digging can make those things fall on them. I would also recommend adding more bedding and compacting it (without the hamster inside the cage) so it's stable to dig tunnels in. Right now it looks difficult to build tunnels in it.
For square items like sandbath just adding dowels can do without wasting some space for the platform
The hamster is so cute and lovely. I'll enjoy watching the hamster
Yay! I have been waiting for this video for ages!
Awesome Hamster House ..👌👍
wow it's a nice cage you made and a mega cute hamster
Great decorating & cute hammy! 💕
Lovely I really want a hamster and have finally got to the point where I have the resources to proper care

. im using it with 3 of my hamster and they are all like it a lot
This is an awesome set up!
Where’d you get that cage? I’m interested in buying it :D
they made it! you have to buy the frames from ikea and the glass too the rest is just assembling the parts and putting the cage together :)
Your cage looks so pretty! I would just recommend adding more bedding, though, because the platform is so tall and your hamster might walk off it easily.
Su it’s fine better than 90 percent of hamster owners cages

Such a nice Set Up!
Can you share where get some of the supplies? I can’t find anything like the flax or moss near me really. Or maybe I’m not looking in the right stores.
where do you get the acrylic box you used as a sand bath? i love it!
Came to comments to see if this had already been asked, I've been hunting for something to use as a sand bath as my hamster destroyed the edible one in a few days haha
If you search up tilt bowls they’ll pop up. 😊
Where’s the cage from? It’s amazing! 🌟
Yes I want to know because we’re on vacation and we go back home from vacation in a few weeks and my birthday present from my Mom and Dad is that I’m getting a hamster and she is going to be a girl and she is going to be 10 months old and what do I give her if she is cold because we live Chicago Illinois white eagle Naperville so it snows for us so she is going to be cold what should I put
I think it is an IKEA Lennmon cage just look it up on RUclips it is a diy cage
Looks great 🌟 집 이쁘다...
it’s so pretty i really love it your hamster has a great life
Please can you post another video? I love your hamster care and content and will love it if you can post soon x

This*
It's looks great!!
Thank you xx
Ok, I see you everywhere😶
Hello! I loved everything, where did you buy the coconut fiber? And the acrylic pot that is under your wheel?💕
You can get coconut fiber in the reptile section of the pet shop.
quick suggestion, you should really crowd the cage because hamsters do better in crowded environments. thats probably why she’s getting bored so easily.
Hamster yang lucu 😍❤️
where did you find all of this stuff? and the cage as well :)
awww so cute 🥰!
Hey love your cage can I ask where you got that acrylic tray from or even what’s the measurements xx
Can you link where you got the stuff??
I got my hamster today I don’t have the room for a 75 gallon so I got him a 55 gallon he’s loving it he’s got a bunch of stuff coming on monday
i love this cage but i cant see any chew toys but reallly it is amazing and so natural!
There are literally tons of things for a hamster to chew on in that cage! 😆
What cage do you have or is it D.I.Y? xx
What a cute hammy 🐹
Where is your wheel from also really cute cage
You're hamster is adorable
YESSS
Hey I was wondering where the log house is from I love it and where did you get your flax from I've been looking everywhere for some
Where did you get the bowl and the sand bath bowl from?
Where did you get those platform/items from? is it Niteangel products? I love their items but it is often sold out.
I really love your wheel! Does your hamster pee on the wheel? If so, how do you clean your wheel since it looks like its made of wood?
Asome!
Hi! I have a question: what's the tiny carrot on the hamster water?
your hamster is so lucky
Hello, I greet you from Colombia, you made the wheel for your hamster? If so, you would give me a guide to do it. Thank you 😊
Which food mix do you use and where are you based? X
I love the set up you did but may be a little more toys
Great cage! I'm a new subscriber! Maybe just add a few sticks and twigs and clutter the cage more with little hideouts and tunnels but otherwise amazing cage!
Helo! Im plannin 2gt a hamster :3 i love the styl of ur encloser n all the enrichments tht come w/ it! i was wondering what did u buy to build the cage, or what r the measurements? or sq inches is it? i wud luv2 recreate this thank u once again :3 if u bought online may u send links.
What kind of wood did you use? good for a gerbil?
where is the clear sand bath tray from?
Where did you get all your wooden supplies from? Especially the glass bowl too?
I got a simair glass bowl from dollar tree
And the wooden stuff from pet smart and petco!
What size is your wheel? I'm looking into getting a wooden one
It looks like the 28cm trixie one, I've ordered the same one today and they seem to be very popular. You can find them on Amazon, I paid £25 for mine
Can you send links to the toys and little houses in the cage?
Where is the cage from so sorry to here about bandit
where did you get the wheel from?
Do you have links to the products?
I wonder why she never mentioned the items used and where to buy them I was interested in that fine coconut fiber used 😣
2:26

It looks like the diy linnmon cage VanillaHamHam made
Where did u get the cage?

I loveeee this cage🥰 can you tell me the measurements of this cage?🙏🏼
It's the Ikea linmon cage, vanilla ham ham has a tutorial. I think it's 100x60 or just under?
Super❤👍👍👍👍
