With the colder months approaching I decided to do a half cage clean last weekend which went really well. I kept some of the old substrate that was still looking tidy to mix in with the fresh and it was great to sweep up all the sand that he’s kicked out of his sand bath.
Hams was in his playpen not too far from the cage as there was no one else about to watch him in another room and he was really funny, constantly meerkating and peering up to where I was cleaning. He seemed pretty happy when I placed him back home though and kicked around, dug in the deeper substrate.
His nest looks so adorable at the mo, really cosy. I’m thinking of lifting the top section off and replacing the bottom at the end of November as there are just so many poops. It’s a multi layered substrate of poops and food, poops and food, defo needs a tidy before Christmas
