Default Are lollipop sticks ok for..

Are lollipop sticks ok for making hamster toys? I have loads of them for my craft stuff and I would like to make maybe a house or something. I'm pretty sure it won't be toxic or anything but just making sure

I used tongue depressors, which are basically just wider lolly sticks, to make a "bannister" for a shelf. Dinah chewed them and suffered no ill effects

ETA: I would stick to plain rather than coloured ones, though.

I wouldn't let Josh chew it just in case of splinters, and definitely wouldn't use coloured ones. Plain lollipop sticks should be OK, yes.

Josh, hamsters are supposed to chew wood to keep their teeth down... your hamster does have something wooden in his cage to chew on, doesn't he?
