Storing Hammy Treats... - Page 2

I use the box the cage came in to store loads of little tubs containing their food/bedding/treats etc. It saves cluttering up the cupboards with tubs and it keeps it all in the same place.

I got a whole bunch of Rubbermaid containers in Matallan recently and transferred my goodies to them. Before that I had a variety of old tubs (butter, ice cream etc.) and Tupperware but I found with repeated washing and opening and closing nightly they wore out eventually and became less airtight. The new containers with locking lip sides are great and I use larger ones with holes drilled for transporting hamsters.

I did think about that type but I just went for the cheapest ones I could find...at 39p a tub they're cheap enough to throw out and replace. I do use the locking lid type at home and find that in time they don't close up too good as they become a bit slack.

I've not started using mine yet as the treat bags remain unopened at the minute but I intend to give a treat today so will start using them soon
