UPDATE! my newest hamster cage makeover video includes a lot of the concerns you guys have been commenting on, so feel free to check it out :) ua-cam.com/video/n13ItdY_iVc/v-deo.html i’ve been getting a lot of questions so i thought i would clarify- her tank is a 40 gallon breeder so it’s 650 sq inches! i have the tank linked in the description as well! also she is a robo hamster :)
@@lilyrecker i got it on a website like craigslist for $100 :) you could also wait for petcos dollar per gallon sale! i’m not sure when it is, but the tanks will be on sale and a 40 gal would be $40!!
I love watching these types of videos even if there years old. It makes me so happy to see. I have like so many lizard and hamster packages that won’t deliver for 2 or more weeks and this just makes me even more impatient for them!!
My hamster was the same way with chewing and how I fixed it was I took his favorite treat and blended it up with a little water them spread it all over the chew then wiped it all off so the sent was still there it worked wonders hope this helps!
i ABSOLUTLY I LOVE AUDREY SHE HAS HELPED ME NOT BE BORED WHEN I QUARENTINE AND SHE MADE ME ABLE TO GET A HAMSTER CAUSE MY MOM WATCHED her vids after i asked for one and my mom knew i know a lot about hampsters cause of her so she thinks im responsible YAY LUV U GURLIE
Heyy! Just as an advice from my personal experience. Make sure that if u out sand like that I’m sure bedding will get in it as burrows/digs. Cuz when I first got sand I put it just like u did and trust it was a big mistake. When my hamster would dig in sand the sand will be all over the cage or A BUNCH of bedding gets in it and yeah.. I recommend using a small like box or anything where u can put sand and then yk the bedding is like at the level of the box(or even a bit lower) so that u don’t get bedding in it or sand all over the cage. Hope this helps!
i really enjoyed this video ...you bought some awesome things [ loved the little bridge ] and the cage setup turned out real cute and i'm sure cream puff will love it .
Full clean outs, or cleaning out more than a third of bedding. Next time maybe just replace a section every week or two until the whole cage is the brown color. You should also use some nontoxic School glue and glue on some reptile or hamster moss into the cracks of the bendable bridges so that lambs won’t get caught. Also you could get away with putting much more bedding into the brown section. I also don’t know how big that wheel is, but if it’s only a 6.5 inch, I would recommend an 8 inch wheel. No wheel is to big as long as the hamster can control it.
hi! so as a hamster owner you did say you would change it every month and great job on keeping some of the bedding and only spot cleaning but hammys are very teratorial animals i think i said that wrong lol but even changing the "furniture" can stress them out a great deal and the reaso she comes out in those times is because hamms are nocturnal and sleep in the day and are VERY active at night hope this helps someone also their are lots of youtube vids on what hamsters like and dislike
a tip for chew toys! spread a very very thin layer of peanut butter on her toy and she should love it! make sure to only use a really tiny bit and not do it really often because it’s not super healthy for them. you do want to make sure she is chewing on stuff regularly because those incisors (front teeth) of hers will get really really long and can cause major discomfort and other issues in the future. other than that you’re doing great and cream puff looks really happy!!
i love your cage!! I have heard of people keeping their hamster chews in the food mix for a few days before giving it to the hamster to encourage chewing!
actually,they don't, they do get stressed when you change their bedding,but when oyu change their set up,it actually gives them enrichment,so that is actually good for them
That is so cute. I went to the dollar tree and found a long bin that might have held spaghetti so I put mine at the end of the cage for their sand. That way I can clean that out weekly. It starts out clean but both girls use their sand after they have fun bathing in it with new and clean then they will wind up using it for their potty too. I also got long plastic bins at Target. They are see through so my chihuahua absolutely is in love with them and as soon as she hears their hamster wheels going she comes out to see them. Thanks for all the ideas.
Love this but just a few concerns on your comment! Do you have 2 hamsters in 1 cage? If so, that is very dangerous they can fight and possibly kill each other! Get them seperrate cages. Also make sure your not cleaning all the bedding out weekly it stresses hamsters out. Clean only some of the yucky parts out at a time. Also make sure your dog is away from your hamsters it could stress them out! I hope I don't seem like a Karen I just want your hamster(s?) to live a happy life!
Tip! If you still have those wimsy chews for Cream puff try smudging a bit of peanut butter on her chew and rinsing or wiping it off, Cream puff will most likely smell the peanut butter and chew at it!
Love the setup and cream puff is so cute but I really recommend getting a lid just for safety, my first hamster also a robo escaped because I didn't have a lid and my cats got him 😔
hey I love the cage but I really think you should upgrade the wheel since it's way to small and maybe some bigger hideouts :) but otherwise it's mostly amazing goodjob
I love the set-up! It looks so fun and happy! I have a few suggestions though: I would recommend expanding her burrow space and adding more bedding ( I know when sloping bedding it can be difficult but I would try to add a couple more inches) I would suggest adding a cork log or some grapevine wood somewhere because that adds a bit of a naturalistic look And my final suggestion is to add another hideout in the sand area so she has some privacy. Other than that I think your cage looks great! 🐹
this is amazing nothing is wrong GREAT hammy care!!!!!! also about the chewing thing my hamster is the same way you can put a slim of peanut butter on a chew and they'll go crazy for it
Hey, I have a few tips for you to make your hamster happier . I would upgrade to slightly bigger cage .Add a multi chamber hidey .Take out the blue bedding and just put sand in it ( kinda just wastes space for the hamster) .Add more of the natural bedding (recommend 8 inches but need atleast 6) . Since she doesn't have like 850+ inches of space I recommend not putting anything in where it's just for decoration since that is only pleasant for you and not the hamster . Add maybe a cork log or grape vine log This wasn't to be mean for someone tips to make your hamster happier, I think you are doing a great job
@Cornmac is Backroom they still need s lot of enrichment and Big stuff in the wild robos have the same amount as a Syrian and I know from experience that robos tend to love to borrow out of all the species of hamsters and appreciate the natural theme a lot.
@Cornmac is Backroom ALL hamsters need deep bedding, a large cage and a LOT of enrichment REGARDLESS of their species or size. It does not matter, Every hamster needs 6-10 inches of bedding. I have two tiny hamsters and they have the same bedding depth, enrichment quality and quality of life as my two bigger hamsters. She did mention since her hamster is tiny, but she is wrong in thinking that means they need less bedding. ALL hamsters should be able to burrow. As well as this, there is no such thing as hamster breeds, only hamster species. And all species of hamsters need bedding AND sand, not more sand than bedding. She has done research, but needs to do a bit more so she can improve on her hamster care. Please do your research before commenting as well.
Luv it!!! "HERMAN'S Cage wasn't as organized but she lived in my 🧤 inside the cage"Herm was a "Japanese 🐼 mouse" MY 11 year old daughter had 1look & "Herms address changed that moment from a 3 digit to a 4 digit one where he resided for many many years to come!" In the future 🔮 I have a few ideas to share in Rie Rie & Herman's books of virtue while living in the early 2000!!! Two thousands!!!! God,watch over them both in your many mansions in the sky!!! I luv & miss you both very, very much!!! Moma 🥀 will be with you in the 🔮. It'll be before you know!!! Luv Johna
I love it! I'm also doing a similar layout like you. So inspiring I love it! I'm a hamster lover myself. Sadly I can only have a 10 or 20 gallon ( I don't know which one it is ) because I don't have space for a 40 gallon! later in the future I will have a lot of hamsters.. I hope at least.. Btw your so pretty! And cream puff is adorable!
I love the end result! But I would recommend that you add a lot more bedding on both the blue and brown side. I would also get a plat form, cork logs, grape vines and a water bowl instead of water bottle since its more natural. 💚
What size is the wheel. You definitely need a bigger wheel 10 inches wheel is what I would recommend for a robo.And 6 inches of bedding for burrowing habits
Just make sure that the prey animals are in an area where your other animals cant reach them. My dogs love to watch our hamsters, which they can freely do without getting close to them, we are fixing to upgrade their cages, because we are going to be building a massive cage shelf to put in our living room for them. They are Robos and will each have their own 3ft long by 2 foot wide cage to live in, which is massive for a dwarf hamster. There will be 3 cages and the other one will be for our Winter White Dwarf when we get it. But making the cages, with a glass front, so the dogs can watch them if they want too, but not in anyway be able to reach high enough to get them. Also, our hamsters arent afraid of our dogs and one of them actually finds enjoyment out of taunting our Mini Dachshund.
omg im so jealous :( my parents won’t let me get a hamster because my dad doesn’t wanna take care of one when im at my moms house and he thinks they are gross and mean and then my mom wont let me get one bcz we already have a cat and a dog but she said maybe we can talk about in the summer time when school is over, so wish me luck!! Im gonna give them like a full presentation loll
Girl please me carefull with setting up bendy bridges on their side. They're notorious for getting little hamster feet and toes stuck in between the slits and possibly breaking or otherwise hurting your hamster. Stuff the slits with moss or toilet paper etc.
Your hamster 🐹 might just be awake when its quiet, personally i would have two hamsters and have them in a quite room where your other pets can’t go I am not telling you that you need to so this but if your hamster seems scared or lonely then i would suggest that P.s. please note that i know very little about hamsters, I do not have any and do not know if they can have a partner with them

thats a great ides just whould be scared of choking
@@tierraengel4832 you don’t serve it with the food mix….you just keep it in there so it smells like the food when you give them the chew
Omg I luv you pet videos you have great care also I luvvvvvvv the cage
Your hamster is so cute!!!!
This is so cool!
This is adorable
Just a heads up, don’t change it around too much! hamsters do get very stressed when they can’t find their toys, etc.
actually,they don't, they do get stressed when you change their bedding,but when oyu change their set up,it actually gives them enrichment,so that is actually good for them
@@vm__vm-z8l i was more just talking about moving it super often. But yes, moving stuff around every once in a while is great for enrichment!
love this!
This gave me an idea for my cage and its amazing my hamster loves it x
This is the first vid I’ve watched from you! (Subscribed)You new hamster sounds like an angel. I have two hamsters!
i love the cage!! :) everything is great! :D btw shes adorable!!

Great layout, love the split level idea.
Does cream puff like the size? I am thinking about buying it also what lid did you use?
hi so i’m getting a robo hamster tomorrow and i was wondering if i am aloud to use a bin for a cage ? like a big bin ?
I have that bridge for my hermit crab, she LOVES it! Hope cream puff does too! 😊
That’s amazing but I recommend more breeding like you have a vary tall cage so I think adding 6-10 inches of bedding Because they love to burrow
Well done! It's so cute.
My old hamster Jack had the exact same wheel
Also the wherl dose match the cottage theme because it matches the mushroom 🍄
9:45 o my god i have never heard anything more relatable it gives me like a mini heart attack
Good on you as a pet owner to enhance your pets life and give her, her requirements in a fun and creative esthetic way
Love the setup and cream puff is so cute but I really recommend getting a lid just for safety, my first hamster also a robo escaped because I didn't have a lid and my cats got him 😔
I'm happy to say there is a plethora of cottage-core hamster enclosure accessories these days. 🥰
i know this is a video about the hamster but it will be my first time having a guinea pig and what do i need for it to exercise
i got the exact same bedding for my hammy!
Just about to re-cage my Syrian in a bigger cage (tank). Thank you so much for these great ideas - it looks amazing!
This looks great! You should put the bridge over the blue bedding to make it look like water! Have a great day!
I think you should keep the red wheel for cream puff because it matches the mushroom house!
haha i luv this!!!
❤❤❤😊 ur hamster is so cute😊
You should keep the red weel so it matches with the mushroom
That was good!:) I think it would be good to add more bedding!
It’s rlly cute but I’d recommend more bedding so ur hamster can burrow six inches is a good amount
Cuttttte
I absoloutly loveeeeee your Chanel 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Nice cage 👍🏻
hey I love the cage but I really think you should upgrade the wheel since it's way to small and maybe some bigger hideouts :) but otherwise it's mostly amazing goodjob

Yesss! Looks amazing! Love that you know about your animals.
My name is Audrey too
You can help her start chewing by spreading some peanut butter on and swipe it off so the taste will stay on there so it will make her wanna chew!
Tip:try filling your cage up more, hamsters like semi crowded cages! Hope this helps if you use the tip! ^^
Is there a top on the cage also is it a fish tank cause I kinda want to try it
Does the tank have a lid
It’s sooooo cuteee I need a hamster❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

When my grandpa died my moms friend got her a moonglow necklace from his birth date :)
U should paint white dots on her red wheel.
Hey ya'll so i'm deciding on a name for my FEMALE hamster,what name should i pick? (Options:Cypress,Cedar,Biscut,and sage.)
Change it every 6 days they could die if you don't clean it!
Hey! I was wondering.. whats the blue stuff?😁 it looks so cool!

where do you adopted your guinea pig from
Do I need to get a tank lid for my hamster? Im pretty sure im gonna buy a 20Gallon Tank
Girl please me carefull with setting up bendy bridges on their side. They're notorious for getting little hamster feet and toes stuck in between the slits and possibly breaking or otherwise hurting your hamster. Stuff the slits with moss or toilet paper etc.
you are so cute❤️
You should have have made a creek with the blue bedding, then put the bridge over it.
Your hamster 🐹 might just be awake when its quiet, personally i would have two hamsters and have them in a quite room where your other pets can’t go
I am not telling you that you need to so this but if your hamster seems scared or lonely then i would suggest that
P.s. please note that i know very little about hamsters, I do not have any and do not know if they can have a partner with them
Hamsters can’t be together. They can fight to the death if they are together. (no hate! ❤)
when i saw the blue bedding i thought of a river and the aquarium bridge over it
(currently watching the video)
I recommend more bedding 6-12 inches and a bigger cage when you can
I ordered that and got ripped off. A month later after returning it...still no refund
