Pushing away all the bedding from her house??

[jenny_]

I have a Russian dwarf hybrid and have her for 10 days and I made her a carboard house and she obviously sleeps in it but she pushed all the bedding out of the house which is weird because isn't she suppose to bring a lot of bedding into the house? Or is this normal?
Thank you

Every hamster has its own weird habits. I'm pretty sure it's perfectly normal

Is your house really warm? It may be that she just doesn't need any extra insulation in there right now.

They put it in, they take it out, they move house then they do it again lol! Basically anything goes with hams & their nests

Thanks dave
It is pretty warm but not like it's summer, it's maybe around 25 degrees Celsius inside. And she is sleeping now and she is not in the house lol well it must be that is too warm then
Cypher LOL

Yeah it's sounds like she's just warm, especially if she's sleeping outside her house. You can try putting something cold in there for her to lay on to cool off, like a ceramic mug or a flat rock. Both of my hamsters have a piece of polished granite to cool off on if they need it.

NiceCrocs yeah lol
I will try putting something like a rock in there thanks

There's also the possibility that she wants a fresh change! CB will do that sometimes- push everything out, and when I put fresh bedding outside her hut, she'll pull that in

A fresh change? Why, those cheeky lil fuzzbutts.......talk about spoiled rotten?
