Default Re: Cage Accessories

My 3 hybrids have bendy bridges (these are really good for hiding under or replacing platform ladders depending on the cage), ferplast tunnels, wheels and flying saucers, sand baths, burrowing areas, a maze, a coconut, and various boxes.

You can make dwarf hamster mazes from cardboard egg cartons. Just cut an entrance hole and place it upside down in their cage. I've made a lollipop house as a hideout for my youngest hybrid, and my older pair have a cardboard house (glued a few boxes together and cut out holes at various heights). You could also section off an area of her cage for her to burrow in. You can also give her tissue roll tubes with a bit of tissue still attached (they love tearing the paper off to use in their nests).

When you buy things like hamster wheels I find that if it's marketed for dwarfs it's actually too small so go for the 'Syrian' sized option (usually to small for Syrians tbh).
