bar chewing in detolf
hey!! i have my hamster in the detolf, and he always burrows down to the bottom part of the bars and chews on them, and it’s always in the same spot. he doesn’t usually burrow so i put the most amount of bedding above that section, but he burrows down there anyway to chew. he won’t burrow anywhere else.
not only is it loud and wakes me up, it can’t be good for his teeth. i have plenty of chew toys and things to do in his cage. i try to switch things around regularly to make sure he isn’t bored. i sprinkle feed, i use herbs, i’m not sure what else i can do. he hasn’t always done this, it’s only been in the recent couple of months so i’m not sure why he’s doing it. help would be great!!

Try to prevent him getting to that spot in some way. For example, you could put a clothing peg on the bar or you could rub something that they don't like on the bar like olive oil.

Re: bar chewing in detolf
I'd try to block it off, cardboard wrapped over it, wooded chew or stick attached.
Willow sticks are quite easy to buy, and he's going to chew there give then something good for teeth.
Hamsters are very odd but determined to do things, even when it's bad.
