Suggested enrichment/boredom breakers for Syrian

[alpacassei]

Different areas with different substrates are good for adding enrichment (sand, eco earth, aspen, etc). My syrians love when I hide seeds in those wicker ball chew, they spend ages rolling them around trying to chew the seeds out. I’ll sometimes also stuff tissue inside a toilet roll so they have to work to get tissue out.

Whimzees are safe to give daily, there’s nothing harmful in the ingredients. Most people here make sure their hams always have access to whimzees. Treat sticks shouldnt be given often because of the high amount of sugar (most use honey to bind them together). As for wooden chews, my hamsters favourites are apple and willow. They cant stand any painted chews
