    • @nickyyrenee
      @nickyyrenee  4 года назад +1

      Personally I would not use art sand for hamster sand baths, as I'm not too sure what they make it out of and it could irritate your hamsters skin or be harmful if ingested. Just to be safe I would stick to child play sand. ;)

    What kind of sand should I use for a hamster?

    • @Sam-eo1mh
      @Sam-eo1mh 4 года назад +3

      There are a few options on what kind of sand you can use. One is children's play sand. Make sure it's heat treated and if it's not then bake it in the oven. Also make sure to sift it out to get any bigger particles. You can also use reptile sand with no added calcium, minerals, or dye. You can also use chinchilla bath sand although it's not the best because it can be dusty and is pretty expensive. Please stay away from anything that says dust. If you would like to watch a video I recommend watching Victoria Reachels video all about sand baths. Hope I could help :)

      @Chissy1984 2 года назад

      How deep is your bedding? They are burrowing animals and basically live underground in the wild so if the bedding isn't deep enough than they won't attempt to burrow. You should make the bedding as deep as possible. Depending on the type of hamster will determine how deep the minimum is but a good rule of thumb is the deeper the better. I watched a video that showed a study where Syrian hamsters were placed into different enclosures with either 30 inches deep of bedding, 16 inches or 6 inches (I think I have that right) and out of all the hamsters in the 30 inch deep bedding enclosures showed no bar chewing and significantly less bar chewing for those with 16 inches of bedding. Something to consider. Also I'm sure you learned this stuff by now but thought I'd mention it in case anyone else was reading through the comments like I was and wasn't aware of how crucial deep bedding is to the overall care and health of your hamster. Hope all is well with you and your hamster!

    This isn’t hate but, you shouldn’t be making these types of videos if you don’t have the proper knowledge of hamsters. The slipper you showed and said that it was good for a “cuddle thingy”. *absolutely not* this is so unsafe for hamsters if they try to chew them and can be toxic. And I do not recommend buying that. Wrapping paper is a big *no*, because your hamster will try chewing it if it’s inside the cage and will die from the toxic coloring and toxic materials in the wrapping paper. If you are using it around your hamsters cage, that wouldn’t be necessary because you are covering and creating a dark area around the hamsters enclosure which is not recommended. *no* 😐

      Agree but for the wrapping paper i think she meant backing behind the cage, just a background on one side. But yea the slipper is a big no no hamsters chew everything and they couod easily die from eating the slippers
