To those who are wondering; Those tiny white insects are springtails. They are harmless to pets but they are very beneficial to plants and soil. They break down materials and recycle them. Some of them do eat young roots though.
I wonder if Cotton is the happiest hamster in the world. He’s got a good owner, a natural setup that gives him lots to do and utilize his natural instincts but with no predators.
Very interesting how despite being in such a natural set up he’s still very trusting of you. You would think he would almost go wild, but he still has the temperament of your average pet hamster. However you can still see his wild instincts kick in when he’s digging and foraging for food.
Actually, hamsters often go wild/untrusting when you provide them with an improper enclosure. A happy hamster in a good enclosure, like this one, doesn't experience stress and therefore is more trusting of his owner.
I'm so happy you give your hamster real food! So many hamster owners think seeds are a hamster's natural diet. SO WRONG. They are omnivores and require meat and plants (which seeds are NOT) to live longer! You are a fantastic pet owner!
B!TCH you DO realize omnivores eat seeds too right??? Omnivores will eat literally everything that is *edible*. Squirrels are omnivores and eat a lot of seeds and do fine. We are omnivores. Of course hamsters need a varied diet, do you think the youtubers that know how to take care of hamsters don't? Jesus you are so brainwashed.
@@Mellanii.always No, it is not. Fruits, sprouts, plants, mealworms, etc, are good for them; not seeds. This is the same mistake some parrot/bird owners make in mass (literal animal abuse). DON'T FEED ANIMALS SEEDS. Seeds aren't even good for humans! There's a reason things made out of seeds make us sick; they are filled with toxins and phytic acid, which binds with essential nutrients (making it so that a diet of only seeds or too much seeds leads to malnutrition, since it deprives the body of the nutrients it should have gotten)!
meat?? what hamster in the wild is eating meat lmfao they’re smaller than the palm of your hand so what would they hunt?.. They’re omnivores meaning they need protein so Insects yes, meat no.
Wow. This is the first time I have seen a hamster in this kind of ultranatural habitat. I am amazed and touched by your expertise and dedication.

Same, and that's how it should be like. It doesn't matter if it's a rat, fish, hamster or a reptile. They should have their habitats naturalistic. It helps them live much longer.
The last hamster I had, I used to take him outside when my dogs weren’t out there. My hamster always went to the same tree in the middle of the yard. He chewed the wood near the roots and he discovered rolliepollies! I noticed he would also eat them lol. He also would “hide” in the grass but it was too short. Ace was a good hamster
Little guy is in hamster paradise. Has his own perfectly maintained territory to live his best hammy life with zero predators and food delivery. I wish I could be this happy!
I remember seeing the original video thinking it was so cool but worried if the hamster would turn feral, but it looks like Cotton is still really nice to you. Kinda crazy how buff he is. You can really see his musculature from all the digging. Anyway thank you for the update!
I would think that any hamster if well habituated and certain it is safe would actually thrive in this set up because it definitely would feel more natural and therefore be less stressed then also being more likely to relax with the human. If it felt threatened in this environment it would likely go feral but none of those seem to be the case here.
I see nothing but benefits in keeping dwarf hamster species in this manner, but because it is a closed system as with any natural biotope it does have to have some maintenance requiring some knowledge, research and experience. So while this is most likely the best way to keep a dwarf species of hamster especially in reducing its overall anxiety and therefore increase its friendliness with humans, this kind of setup cannot simply be set up and left alone requiring some intervention and observation that of which you are quite good at executing as evidenced by how healthy Cotton is. I wouldn't recommend this for the beginner but certainly for anyone willing to put in the time and effort to learn as well as perform the necessary maintenance. That said I think this is one of the best examples of how to properly keep a critter healthy and happy in captivity. Cotton must be the happiest hamster on RUclips in this incredibly well done and maintained setup. I love the fact that you added a pond as I've always thought that for a hamster a water bowl or bottle to be unnatural and potentially less sanitary than this setup. Water treatment plants used all the techniques that you used to create a safe drinking supply. I kept waiting to see if Cotton would actually go in the water and was disappointed but not surprised that they didn't. Anyway bravo!!! You get my standing ovation and my subscription now and thanks to the RUclips algorithm for bringing me here! Even though I'm completely in love with hamsters and in particular several of the dwarf species, I have avoided keeping them and in particular dwarf hamsters after a few poor experiences in a sterile more typical setup but plan on trying it again in this one thanks to your success. i think i'd even go so far as to add a few fish to the pond! I'd love to see an attempt at keeping a colony of the more social species of dwarf hamsters and I can't remember its name I'd have to look it up again because in a more sterile artificial environment you still witness some of the fighting and cannibalism that you wouldn't necessarily see in the wild even in that species. It requires a large naturalistic enclosure to be successful especially when they're not siblings.... also I'd love to see long-term statistics concerning the longevity of these critters living in this setup and I guarantee that it would be longer than both the regular more traditional sterile captive setups and certainly longer than in the actual wild. And one last thing I was curious if you ever tried keeping isopods in there as well and excuse my laziness for not looking this up myself but wondered if they were safe for the hamster to eat or if they would even eat them. I asked this question cause I think they'd be great in breaking down hamster waste. Also some of them are pretty cool looking. I love the fact that critter keeping is moving toward more bio active setups. Once these systems are well matured and maintained especially during the initial stages, in almost every case you have healthier happier and longer lived critters as well as less maintenance overall... Because nature and the hamster takes care of a large part of it just as they should. Anyway again BRAVO!!! Please give Cotton a little pets for me.
I love the Winter White Hamsters. They are by far the friendliest, most social, interactive hamsters I've ever raised. Will never have another breed again. Thanks for sharing this.
@@ClipCoyote yeah. I've had chinchillas too. And they weren't sociable at all. I had Teddy Bear hamsters growing up, and they were always very finicky. They'd be nice and all of sudden bite or nip. Winter White hamsters are great. We allowed our pain to have one litter of babies and the mother was great with them. Both of ours (Male and Female) lived almost 4 years which is long for a hamster. When I had Teddy Bear hamsters they only lived for 2 to 2 1/2 years at most.
i feel like you and ppl like you without needing to say anything or advocate show us how animals are actually supposed to be cared for, the level of happiness and consciousness in the hamster is obvious, i’ve known ppl to keep hamsters in a petsmart cheap cage and they’re always assholes(biters/not friendly) makes me think twice about how i care for an animal and how they should be cared for depending on what type of animal, thank you for showing us how to truly care and love our animals. They’re all scared until they feel love
I love that you have him a solid wheel and a little drinking pot but not a whole pond or anything. Too often in setups like these, there isn’t a wheel for the hamster or there is too much water in the enclosure. Lovely!

This is awesome, I have bioactive enclosures for my frogs, toads, chameleons and few of my inverts, and they’re always fun to watch the progress of. Never thought of this and might consider picking up a Hamster myself.
It's very sad that much like fish, hamsters are treated not like animals with needs but toys. This makes me incredibly happy to see. You take very good care of your pets
이게 왜 학대인지......... 희한하네.. 보통은 베딩에 키우지만... 햄스터 입장에서는 저곳이 천국일텐데요. 풀도 뜯어먹고.. 햄스터가 좋아하는 흙에.. 햄스터 키웠던 예전에.. 얼마나 순했던지 손바닥 안에서 자던 모습이 아직도 생각이 납니다. 남자친구도 저도 매우 그 햄스터를 귀여워했죠. 가급적 만지지 않고 키웠지만 3년 살고 떠났어요. 햄스터는 대략 2주에 한번만 만진듯.. 보기만하고요 ㅎ
Had few hamsters myself as kid. Never have I thought of making something like this for a hamster. Metal cages were what all friends used to keep them in. Thanks! I'll make sure my kids would have one of these.
was expecting just hamster stuff. but I am instead blown away by the surprise time-lapse footage of poop turning into fertilizer!! 😮. amazing stuff. You & KumaQQ are the best hamster channels 👍👍
Nice to see such a beautiful enclosure for a dwarf hamster, very rare to see, they usually get put in small plastic boxes with some bedding and a wheel,
its really cool you take this to a whole other level. i like seeing how people are meticulous & detailed @ caring for things, how id like to do it but more ambitious than i.
동생이 햄스터를 3년 정도 키웠는데.. 그래도 이층 케이지에 옆에도 리빙박스로 또 통로 만들어주고 화장실과 욕실 따로 해주면서 별로 사람 손으로 스트레스 주지 않으며 꽤 잘 키웠다고 생각했거든요. 정말 이 영상 보면서 솜이에 비하니 울집 뽈이 얼마나 답답한 생활을 했을까 생각했어요. 정말 대단하십니다
Thank you, I felt incredibly stressed until I watched that, you’ve distracted me, just what I needed. The stress isn’t completely gone, but it’s helped a lot. I didn’t even know I need med to watch that 😀 it was a random suggestion.
This is truly my dream paludarium 😭 A bioactive setup home to a hamster with naturally growing plants, a variety of hardscape, and a planted aquarium stocked with fish?? Amazing 😭💕 But I wonder, how does the hamster deal with the humidity? I thought they need dry climates? I would love to recreate this in my home one day. Your video updates always bring joy 🥰
Please don’t, it’s not good as like you said it shouldn’t be humid and moist. The hamster may get to cold and die or suffer, just use normal bedding (which they can burrow in just fine as long as it’s deep) and make a big inclosure. This person is not an expert, and it’s kinda sad that so many people are praising them for putting there hamster in a cold moist inclosure, also they may get soaked going into the aquarium which can damage their coat.
@@simplygrace8393 Winter white hamsters are native to Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and Siberia. I don't the hamster will die of cold. Soils also naturally retain moisture; do you think the hamster is burrowing in aspen fiber in the wild? I think it is best to ask the hamster if they are healthy, and he seems to be active, alert, and calm.
Hamsters burrow, so they are exposed to humidity in the wild, since soils naturally retain moisture. In fact, hamsters are nocturnal so they would be spending their days underground to avoid predators. That's a lot of time in humid environments. Winter whites are more active in the day than most species, but the point still stands.
@@snekysneks @Jessica U will always find people like him complaining like they are hamster whisperer or something. The fact that the hamster is active and alive after 1 year just prove them wrong.. if the situation is not good for them they certainly will not survive 1 year in that environment.
I once bought 3 mice at a pet store. They were the size of a quarter, within a week they doubled in size and began fighting. Through the help of internet I was told I must separate the mice, so I did, I got two other aquariums. HOWEVER, I found that mice smell very bad and I was "seriously" having respiratory issues. I love animals, and it was my responsibility for the mices welfare, but I couldn't breathe having them inside my house. So I created a "natural habitat" for the mice, I put 2/3 level of sterilized dirt in each of the 3 aquariums. I put grass seeds in the dirt which grew inside their cages. Each had a home, food dish, water and toys. Each could see each other through the glass and smell each other in their lookout towers. I relocated my 3 mice (in their separate aquariums) on my second-story balcony. I bought $800 worth of small trees and shrubbery that I placed around their aquariums on the balcony for natural shade (I live in Florida so the temperature was warm). My mice lived 3 years!!
@@typicallyusual6984 kind of hard to explain but the best way i can put itnis just do some research. Their are certain conditions that can improve the structural stability of the ground for tunneling and its fairly complicated to look at but not that hard to implement
You could use an external cheap canister filter, a 40$ one has enough flow and is small and you have only 2 tubes going in terrarium. I use one in my turtle terrarium for cleaning up the water and i can create and control a small water flow to oxygenate the water and is also hidden under terrarium in the stand. is also not so loud and has UV sterilization and is way more efficient then any other pump and runs for months before it needs cleaning.
To those who are wondering;
Those tiny white insects are springtails. They are harmless to pets but they are very beneficial to plants and soil. They break down materials and recycle them. Some of them do eat young roots though.
I was just about to ask then I saw you already answered my question thank you :P
Ok, I was just about to ask if those were springtails or mites 😅

Yess!! Thank you for telling everyone!! Very useful little creatures, I always add them to my terrariums

I wonder if Cotton is the happiest hamster in the world. He’s got a good owner, a natural setup that gives him lots to do and utilize his natural instincts but with no predators.
@Travelbird it was a rhetorical question to make a point about how awesome a life this hamster has. I certainly wasn’t asking you.
It’s not good though
@@Timber-0000 He has a natural enclosure that's 3x bigger than what most people give them and plenty of healthy food, What is the problem?
@@captainkenzie6873 he's there alone just to pass.
The enclosure is a lil too small tho, could be better. This is basically the minimum you HAVE to give this animal in Germany.
Very interesting how despite being in such a natural set up he’s still very trusting of you. You would think he would almost go wild, but he still has the temperament of your average pet hamster. However you can still see his wild instincts kick in when he’s digging and foraging for food.
Hamsters have been bred so much they are like dogs in terms of feralness
@@richyket661 Average domesticated species.
Actually, hamsters often go wild/untrusting when you provide them with an improper enclosure. A happy hamster in a good enclosure, like this one, doesn't experience stress and therefore is more trusting of his owner.
I would imagine it would be less trusting if you add predators to the scene.
it isnt natural
His little kicks with his back legs when digging is adorable
"But here's the kicker"
Lol all my hamsters also do that kicking when they dig, they do that to remove the dug up dirt that is under their body
yea my hamster also does that when it digs into the sandbath

너무 귀여워요 ...... 기절. 거대한 벌레가 생긴건 너무나 충격이지만 자연적인 환경에 감동했어요 . 식물도 키우고 자연 연못도 만들고... 거기에 아주 귀여운 쟈근 햄스터... 와 저도 나중에 이렇게 꾸며서 키워보고 싶어요
항상 잘 보고 있습니다. 솜이 케이지 볼때마다 흙에서 키우면 주의해야 할 것도 많으실 거고 관리해야 할 부분도 많으실 텐데 정말 대단하다고 느껴요. 저도 언젠가 솜이처럼 다른 햄찌 친구를 행복하게 살 수 있도록 만들어주고 싶어지는 영상입니다 :)
That hamster is living so nice compared to other pet hamsters. Imagine an even bigger terrarium for him! xD
He died.
NO dont say that y-y@@hatecontent
알고리즘에 따라 들어왔는데... 벌레가 영양도 풍부하고.... 먹을수있는 식물도 꾸준히 주시고... 무엇보다 관리와 햄찌를 챙기시는게 눈에 보이네요 거의 반 야생인데 주인을 무서워하지 않는다니... 자연에서 살아서 그런가 몸짱처럼 보이기도~
Beautiful Hamster
@gusloth what the-💀 hamster is not human food💀💀💀
This is awesome, I have bioactive enclosures for my frogs, toads, chameleons and few of my inverts, and they’re always fun to watch the progress of. Never thought of this and might consider picking up a Hamster myself.
Whoooooa. I've never seen springtails feast like this before. What an extremely healthy environment.
진짜 이분만큼 햄스터에 진심인사람 못봄
성이름이라는 닉네임은 유튜브 댓글 볼때마다 참 이해할 수가 없는 댓이 많다. 성이름이 요즘 유행인건가? 걍 이해불가다..저렇게 까지 신경써서 키우는건 보통사람들은 못한다.. 돈도 들고 신경써줘야 하고 ..
It's very sad that much like fish, hamsters are treated not like animals with needs but toys. This makes me incredibly happy to see. You take very good care of your pets
골든키우고있는 집사인데 이영상보면 진짜 리스펙하십니다 대단하시구 ㅎㅎㅎ 햄스터 대부분 베딩 깔아주고 키우시는데 흙깔아주니 자연에서 키우시는 느낌이 나서 좋았어요 !!
when he gets covered in all the dirt he looks like an oreo mcflurry 😭💕
브금도 카메라 포커싱도 배경도 전부 햄스터 다큐 보는 것 같네요,, 이렇게 사는 친구도 있다니 신기하고 주인님이 가장 대단하신 것 같네요.. 벌레 친구들.. 아무렇지 않게 함께 사는거잖아요..
@@user-fgdgfsdr 혹시 왜인지 알 수 있을까요
이게 왜 학대인지......... 희한하네.. 보통은 베딩에 키우지만... 햄스터 입장에서는 저곳이 천국일텐데요. 풀도 뜯어먹고.. 햄스터가 좋아하는 흙에.. 햄스터 키웠던 예전에.. 얼마나 순했던지 손바닥 안에서 자던 모습이 아직도 생각이 납니다.
남자친구도 저도 매우 그 햄스터를 귀여워했죠. 가급적 만지지 않고 키웠지만 3년 살고 떠났어요.
햄스터는 대략 2주에 한번만 만진듯.. 보기만하고요 ㅎ
@@자연의왕윽빡이 그러게요ㅜㅜ 별다른 이유도 설명 안하고 무작정 학대라고 신고해달라 하는건 악의적으로 매장하려는걸로밖에 안보이네요

Had few hamsters myself as kid. Never have I thought of making something like this for a hamster. Metal cages were what all friends used to keep them in. Thanks! I'll make sure my kids would have one of these.
Wow,this hamster has an amazing set up!! Doesn't have to worry about predators,natural as urrounding and food. ❤
was expecting just hamster stuff. but I am instead blown away by the surprise time-lapse footage of poop turning into fertilizer!! 😮. amazing stuff. You & KumaQQ are the best hamster channels 👍👍
This is the best and cutest video ever. I’m so happy for cotton. He deserves the best as well as his owner
ハムスターがこんなにも生き生きしてるなんて！
完全に動物園の展示方法ですね🎉
こういった野生に近い飼育は素晴らしいです！
ハムスター本人が幸せそう😊
This is the most work I ever see anyone putting into work for a hamster cage
항상 볼때마다 귀여운 솜이에 1차 치이고, 환경을 만드신 주인님께 2차 치임 = 유튜브 보면서 항상 힐링하는 채널 힘들때마다 보면서 심신의 안정을 느껴요ㅠㅠ 감사합니다
Probably One of the few hamsters that won't commit die in a spectacular way
My late mom would have loved this. We treated my hamster like gold. I miss him.
I love the little hamster butt. Especially when the hamster digs. So cute.
I'm watching this at 3am 🤣 I love videos like this. This little hamster has the most incredible natural enclosure I've ever seen
햄뒷발차기할 때 궁댕이 미친 거 아니냐...귀여워...내 심장
이렇게 살아야 하는 아이들이었구나...햄스터뿐만아니라 인간들은 대부분의 동물을 너무 쉽게 생각하고 키우고 있군요.
I nearly cannot express how happy i am for this hamster ❤
1년전에 고슴도치 테라리움 지어줄려고 했던 사람입니다ㅋㅋ아직 시도조차 못해봤지만 늘 애완동물에게 자유의 맛을 보여주려고 노력하시는거 응원하고있습니다 저도 조만간 퇴사와 이직 중간지점에 있을계획인데 그때한번 참고하면서 도전 해보겠습니다 늘 감사합니다!
This is amazing!! Who would have thought that they could live in the wild like this!!
Wow. Your terrium realy came along! Love all the new things you''re trying! Great job.
Nice to see such a beautiful enclosure for a dwarf hamster, very rare to see, they usually get put in small plastic boxes with some bedding and a wheel,
커여운 햄스터를 보러 왔는데 자연의 위대함까지 보게 되는 유익한 영상😌
its really cool you take this to a whole other level. i like seeing how people are meticulous & detailed @ caring for things, how id like to do it but more ambitious than i.
very much enjoy your coice of music for some of these. some nice relaxing hamster footage ahhhh
こんな可愛いのが野生にいたら、確かに飼いたくなるんやろなぁ。って、自然にいる目線で見てしまった！😊
넘 귀엽고 행복한 햄찌네요❤ 흙 파는 모습이 넘 졸귀...
The editing feels like having a fever dream
동생이 햄스터를 3년 정도 키웠는데.. 그래도 이층 케이지에 옆에도 리빙박스로 또 통로 만들어주고 화장실과 욕실 따로 해주면서 별로 사람 손으로 스트레스 주지 않으며 꽤 잘 키웠다고 생각했거든요. 정말 이 영상 보면서 솜이에 비하니 울집 뽈이 얼마나 답답한 생활을 했을까 생각했어요. 정말 대단하십니다
솜이는 평화로운 동물 만화 주인공마냥 매일 행복하게 오늘은 뭐하고 놀까? 이러면서 살 거 같아요

Thank you for sharing it.

Also learned that hamsters were omnivorous? Lol thought they were herbivores
@@guitarchick10 they’re basically rats. Ofc they’re omnivores

Thank you, I felt incredibly stressed until I watched that, you’ve distracted me, just what I needed. The stress isn’t completely gone, but it’s helped a lot.
I didn’t even know I need med to watch that 😀 it was a random suggestion.
This is truly my dream paludarium 😭 A bioactive setup home to a hamster with naturally growing plants, a variety of hardscape, and a planted aquarium stocked with fish?? Amazing 😭💕
But I wonder, how does the hamster deal with the humidity? I thought they need dry climates?
I would love to recreate this in my home one day. Your video updates always bring joy 🥰
Please don’t, it’s not good as like you said it shouldn’t be humid and moist. The hamster may get to cold and die or suffer, just use normal bedding (which they can burrow in just fine as long as it’s deep) and make a big inclosure. This person is not an expert, and it’s kinda sad that so many people are praising them for putting there hamster in a cold moist inclosure, also they may get soaked going into the aquarium which can damage their coat.
@@simplygrace8393 Winter white hamsters are native to Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and Siberia. I don't the hamster will die of cold. Soils also naturally retain moisture; do you think the hamster is burrowing in aspen fiber in the wild? I think it is best to ask the hamster if they are healthy, and he seems to be active, alert, and calm.
Hamsters burrow, so they are exposed to humidity in the wild, since soils naturally retain moisture. In fact, hamsters are nocturnal so they would be spending their days underground to avoid predators. That's a lot of time in humid environments. Winter whites are more active in the day than most species, but the point still stands.
@@snekysneks yes, but i doubt that the cage stays without the lid. The hamster would escape in a heartbeat. Also, some hamsters live in the desert.
@@snekysneks @Jessica U will always find people like him complaining like they are hamster whisperer or something. The fact that the hamster is active and alive after 1 year just prove them wrong.. if the situation is not good for them they certainly will not survive 1 year in that environment.
That's an awesome idea he has to be the happiest healthiest little hamster just living life.
Wow I can tell that you really love Cotton! It’s so pleasant and wholesome to watch you work on Cotton’s home :) and ofc Cotton is the cutest!
I once bought 3 mice at a pet store. They were the size of a quarter, within a week they doubled in size and began fighting. Through the help of internet I was told I must separate the mice, so I did, I got two other aquariums. HOWEVER, I found that mice smell very bad and I was "seriously" having respiratory issues. I love animals, and it was my responsibility for the mices welfare, but I couldn't breathe having them inside my house. So I created a "natural habitat" for the mice, I put 2/3 level of sterilized dirt in each of the 3 aquariums. I put grass seeds in the dirt which grew inside their cages. Each had a home, food dish, water and toys. Each could see each other through the glass and smell each other in their lookout towers. I relocated my 3 mice (in their separate aquariums) on my second-story balcony. I bought $800 worth of small trees and shrubbery that I placed around their aquariums on the balcony for natural shade (I live in Florida so the temperature was warm). My mice lived 3 years!!
Definitely recommend a slightly better tunnel-holding substrate but other than that…looks so freaking amazing!
What would be a better tunneling substrate? Out of curiosity if I decide to attempt this one day.
@@typicallyusual6984 kind of hard to explain but the best way i can put itnis just do some research.
Their are certain conditions that can improve the structural stability of the ground for tunneling and its fairly complicated to look at but not that hard to implement
I’m impressed by how your hamster stays so clean
Good work! I wonder, do you add some artificial rain from time to time and does the soil not drying too much to collapse on the hamster?
You could use an external cheap canister filter, a 40$ one has enough flow and is small and you have only 2 tubes going in terrarium. I use one in my turtle terrarium for cleaning up the water and i can create and control a small water flow to oxygenate the water and is also hidden under terrarium in the stand. is also not so loud and has UV sterilization and is way more efficient then any other pump and runs for months before it needs cleaning.
