My hammie Nolan whom is a few months old and has a 5 story jw pet cage chews on the bars a lot. I understand this is a sign of hamster boredom? I have tried switching out toys in his cage, buying him new wood chews and a wood kebab. He is let out to play every night til he gets too excited. I have noticed if I give him carrots before I go to lay down for the night he gets noticeably more active than normal. His cage is well equipped with toys and things to play with yet he still chews. Any suggestions?
