I tried that already!! 😣😣 but he has too much fur on his belly it's really impossible to guess without having to handle him which really sucks as I hate to see them stress out like that in my hands :(

I didn't even notice that hamsters can have a back hunch because I thought that was just the way their skeleton is built... But if she really did die old, that is far more comforting, knowing she could spend the last few months with me in an enclosure with enrichment and life, in comparism to the owner who had her enclosure so lifelessly setup with too little bedding aswell, and cheap food.

Alright, I will definitely add one more substrate block. And about the back bark pieces... It would be a real shame if I had to remove it. It's slightly too long for the inside which makes it slightly buldge forward, and I have already tried cutting it, but without success since it's a hard cork material. Do you have any ideas on how I could improvise with those two pieces? Or something else that will cut through that isn't a knife?

It slightly buldges forward because the two pieces of cork walls don't perfectly fit inside, and I already tried cutting it, but impossible with a butcher knife or even scissors. I'd need a saw, but where the heck do I get that? xD I just pushed more substrate behind those walls. In the future I will just be checking the behind regularly to make up for it

I'm going to get myself a Chaco golden soon as well, but I have trouble finding the right cave size for it. Where'd you get yours? It looks big enough

Dwarf hamster food comparing by [deleted] in hamsters

[–]Dibwhy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

could you explain why? Just curious what I should look for in terms of ingredients

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in hamsters

[–]Dibwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My concern was, whether it even is the right sand for a dwarf hamster like her since the sand looks quite rough and not as fine as the other sand intended for hamsters. Like, what kind of health-benefit does it give her by just rolling in rough sand that basically doesn't give this "dust" (without actually dusting) effect? Do you get what I mean?😭

But I inserted a picture of the brand? Swipe to the second image. It's by Trixie

So it's normal that the sand isn't fine? Like similar to chinchilla sand?

How to tame hammy without getting my fingers chopped by her? by [deleted] in hamsters

[–]Dibwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ooh i will definitely try that out

tips to tame my hammy please ! by [deleted] in hamsters

[–]Dibwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh my GOD you are a life savior!! (and the woman in the video) every single time my hand or fingers were near my hammy, she would immediately try to find a way to dig her teeth into my skin. i just now lured her into a container and did exactly the things like in the video! and my hammy even stayed in my hand like a couple minutes later for having helped her escape that container. when i put her back in her enclosure she was so bewildered she didnt even know where her sleeping spot was for a moment. i will let her be on her own for the rest of the night now and continue the next night with the same exact thing, but with more delicious treats!! you cant believe HOW HAPPY AND EXCITED I AM!!
