Lol I laughed at "boy cushions" :P
Glad he still wanted his out of cage time. He obviously has his priorities right though food first, play after

Re: Newt's thread
The altered set up looks great. Glad Newtie approves. He is obviously more relaxed about changes and still wants to come out and play. No disapproving looks! Growing well too. He obviously wants to be able to adopt a well known male hamster pose!

Re: Newt's thread
Glad to hear little Newtie is coming on well and growing up to be a healthy cuddly boy. Real shame about the rodipet products and hopefully you are able to make use of them some way. Funny that he didn't seem to take to them and you'd think that hamsters would love a house like that. Still your setup is cool as always hamster paradise.

Re: Newt's thread
I know, I should stick to tried and tested! Yes I can use them in the playpen for now I wanted a very different set up initially rather than repeat Charlie's old set up and also his was for an older hamster. They do vary in their habits though I guess and also that long house isn't dark inside like some of the others. I am sure I shall be able to do a Heath Robinson with them at some stage The main thing is he likes the current set up. And it's nice seeing his little face emerge from the substrate each night. He blocks up the bendy bridge and there's a big heap of substrate in front of it which he sort of tunnels out of when he comes out at night. I don't think he realises the house roof comes off yet. I shall try not to peak too often at first in case he decides to decamp!

Re: Newt's thread
Well Newtie is a real tunneler and digger! This morning I noticed his rainbow bridge toppled over a bit and a big pile of Fitch under it. I wondered if he had decided to nest under there now, so investigated and moved the rainbow bridge and found this tunnel. Not sure where it goes lol. I then peeked in his house to see if he was actually in there and there is another tunnel hole in the corner of his house. That one won't go anywhere because the house is sitting on the base of the cage and half full of Fitch. He is sleeping in there, burrowed down as he moved a bit when I moved a bit of Fitch. He has also made a tunnel beyond the bendy bridge entrance, which he piled Fitch over and then burrows out of. Still not quite sure why he tunneled under the rainbow bridge (which is his ramp out of the door). Maybe he was looking for a way out lol.
Here's the rainbow bridge looking a bit toppled
Here's the tunnel underneath it
And this is the tunnel that leads under the bendy bridge entrance to his house, where his head pops out of in the evening.

Re: Newt's thread
Newtie is quite the little tunneler! I love trying to find where my little Kopi has made her most recent tunnel

Re: Newt's thread
It seems like Newt is quite the tunnel excavating expert! I think it is so precious that these little furry fluffballs create such extravagant tunnels and then peak out from their holes. I wonder what treasures you may find at the end of Newt's hidden tunnels?

Re: Newt's thread
Wow Newtie has an impressive tunnel network going on there. His tunnel holes look similar in size to Pasha's and he's a dwarf lol.
