what kind of soil?

[AmityvilleHams]

This is an old thread so posts might get deleted but actual soil is not safe for hamsters and should never be used no matter how many people try to call it safe. Even organic soil is still unsafe and shouldn't be used either.

The only safe option would be coconut fiber, but if used improperly(such as using too much, keeping it too wet, not having enough ventilation, etc) it could be a problem too - just nowhere near as dangerous as actual soil!
