Toy suggestions for Pedigree Campbell Dwarfs?
I'm hopefully bringing home 1 Campbell Dwarf from a Hamster Show in a few weeks. I got the cage all cleaned and set up today. So far it has a Wheel, cardboard and toilet paper Tubes, the P@H Igloo, the Top of a Rosewood Climbing tower (I have misplaced the rest of it somewhere.), a water bottle, a Lava Ledge under the bottle and a reindeer fabric house from P@H.
I need toy ideas because the cage looks bare ;-; , preferably ones not off Amazon as they need to be here before Feb. 18th so ideally ones I can get in a store. I can't get to a Jolleys, B&M or an Ikea and our Poundlands do not sell Hamster stuff only dog and cat stuff. (My town is awful -.-)
I'm just suck for ideas that a Campbell would like because I'm mostly used to Chinese Hamsters (which love to climb) and Syrians which tend to not play with much and need giant toys, lol.

Re: Toy suggestions for Pedigree Campbell Dwarfs?
Egg boxes & coconuts are two of the favourite things with mine, small terracotta flower pots are good too, simple & free things usually seem to work best!
Do you have a sand bath? They do like a good size, fairly deep sand bath but you can use anything, ceramic bowls, plastic boxes, whatever you have to hand or can get easily that will fit in the cage.
If you can find a nice wooden house without a base that would probably be preferable rather than a plastic house.

Re: Toy suggestions for Pedigree Campbell Dwarfs?
A non see through house might be better. A few bendy bridges, a see-saw (open type or tube type) wooden block with the holes. P@H have all of these. If your one doesn't you may be able to buy online for store pickup.
A whimzee chew and other types of chews would be good. You won't know if they will be chewed until you try them though.

He/She will have a sand bath once I finish making it I've been making his/her sand bath for 4 days now, lol. it's tedious.
I do have a wooden house already the Woodlands one. My Syrian had it for a little bit but was too big for it. I'll have to dig it out and clean it up and put it in from him/her Also, the Igloo doesn't have a base either, lol. It also has extra vent holes at the top so it's very well ventilated.

The Plastic Igloo isn't see through. I also have tons of Whimzee's already for my other 4 Hamsters. Do smaller hamsters use the seesaws usually? I have a wooden see saw in my Spare Hamster Stuff tub, my Syrian didn't ever use it so it's just sitting there! Thank you for reminding me I have it though Will put that in there for him/her and see if he/she likes it.

My Syrians and dwarfs preferred the tube see-saw, but would use both. Sometimes it would be in the cage other times it would be used whilst playing outside the cage.

Re: Toy suggestions for Pedigree Campbell Dwarfs?
I used to have a see saw in the play pen but none of mine were very interested unless it had some food or treats on it!
I think your ham would definitely be happier in the woodlands house than in the igloo.
