Default Re: My young hamster is a weirdo??

It was typed on my phone so may have been a bit garbled with typos! It is all about allowing them to have normal behaviours and it really does affect their behaviour! They visibly look happier when they can busy themselves getting organised They often build mountains out of the substrate as well. I reckon it's to insulate the house in winter, but they are also clever enough to build a mountain they can climb up and escape out the top!

What cage do you have? Often people get sold unsuitable cages which doesn't help. The more floorspace the better. Tall cages have fall risks but that can be sorted with shelves or a full level. So lower wider cages are better.
