Re: Adding hamster pipes?
I know it's tough when you have to change something. But you never know, she might really like the new one better! I think if it's a labyrinth house she will like it.

Re: Adding hamster pipes?
Do you mean nest bedding? Torn up strips of white toilet paper is best - a big pile of it so they can build a nest in the house. Not fluffy bedding - it's a big no no. It can wrap round their legs and even lead to amputations and can cause internal blockages as well if they swallow any after pouching it.
If you mean substrate or litter for the base of the cage, there's a range of choices:
Fitch is popular on here - it's like Carefresh but without the dust! - it's recycled paper. And a lot cheaper
Carefresh (Cellulose bedding)
Supreme Cosi n Dri (similar type of Cellulose bedding)
Hemp bedding
Aspen shavings
Kiln dried, dust extracted pine shavings - although some people try and avoid pine shavings altogether and stick with paper based or hemp or aspen.
I'm using Fitch now - bought a huge bag in bulk and it lasts for months and months and means I can afford to give a nice deep layer of substrate and fill the base of the cage with it.

Re: Adding hamster pipes?
You're welcome. Torn up white toilet paper is best for nesting. It's nice and soft too. They tend to pouch it and take it to the house to build a nest.
