Yes the enclosure is for a new hamster (as mentioned in the video) but please don’t expect to see them anytime soon, it’s likely to be months before they’re actually born and ready to come home.
@@Liviousa Not true, the person who commented could die in like 2 days or something and Victoria would still be alive, they can die before or after each other lol
I hate it when people say: “my hamster doesn’t burrow...”. But really they only have an inch of bedding in the cage. That would be like giving an Olympic swimmer a pool with one foot of water and getting mad at them for not swimming in it. Really, guys. Give your hamsters the proper care they deserve.
I actually had to teach mine how to burrow. He used to live in a cage with less than in inch of bedding. It was ridiculous, when I picked him up some spots actually had no bedding. When he came home with me I gave him about ten inches. He didn't burrow but I started burying him a few inches deep at a time. Now he burrows all the time :D
Nah my hamster really doesnt at all. He is like 1,5 years now and i gave him loads of beddings and tubes (his cage is like double the size of this shown in the vid btw)and stuff and he only burrowed in his first week when he was looking out for his nest but never did since. Its just a waste of bedding and money. My hamster likes to climb instead. There is no stereotype animal so its better to adjust ur care to the needs of ur pet.
@@nannynanan I agree with you. You should adjust to the needs of your pet, but putting in lots of bedding is not a waste of money. Maybe your hamster only will burrow when you are gone. You should always have at least 7 inches of bedding otherwise the hamster cannot burrow.
@@marshmarlow4197 believe me he doesnt want to, i tried. I even tried different beddings, different hights of bedding. He is just not into it. He is also not into sand bathing. Maybe he doesnt see the need in it, because he feels safe enough or isnt bored at all xD i would've enjoyed to see some burrows though. But i got a special bean there i think...😂
you are my favorite youtube ever. when i got my first hamster, i was in 7th grade, and i knew nothing about hamsters, i just really wanted one. and so, after school one day, i convinced my mom to take me to petsmart to “look at the hamsters”. and we were looking at the hamsters, when one of the employees came up to us a told us about. a hamster they had in the back, who as free since he had a neurological condition, and that is what convinced my mom to let me get a hamster. they said he was a winter white, but i soon discovered that he was a russian blue robo. and as i mentioned, i knew NOTHING about how to care for a hamster, and i had only brought about $60 for the hamster and all of its stuff, so of course, i went for the cheapest cage they had, which just so happened to be the smallest one they had. it was a little, $20 tiny tails cage. along with the cage, i had also bought a small little bag of clean and cozy bedding, a hamster ball, and a bag of all living things hamster seed mix (which was really bad and i don’t think they make it anymore because i can’t find it anywhere). and about a week or two after i had gotten him, one of your videos popped up in my recommended on youtube, and i decided to click on it because why not, and it was your first “reacting to my subscribers hamster cages” video, and in that one, someone had a very similar cage to mine, and i remember you saying that it was a very small cage and that they should upgrade, and i took that into mind. i was curios, so i watched some more of your videos and i remember you mentioning bin cages and diy cages, so i asked my mom to take me to walmart so i could buy a bin cage for bob (the hamster). i went to walmart, and bought bob a bin cage, some more bedding, a water bottle, and a new wheel. and bob is dead now, but now i own 2 gerbils, jerry and noodle, who live in a 55 gallon tank, and i have an entire tik tok account dedicated to educating people on proper pet care, and it’s all thanks to you! ❤️
hi victoria i love your videos and it makes me feel very educated when i watch your videos and i hope evrything is fine and you are happy. lenny is so cute i hope lenny will grow more hair again. i hope you have a great day today.
thank you so much Victoria! Without you my little guy would still be living in a 10 gallon tank with 3 inches of bedding and a pure pellet diet. now he is living happily in a 465 square inch bin cage with 10 inches of bedding, a nice sized sand bath, a water bottle and dish, and a great variety of food! Thank you for all you’ve taught me and the rest of your viewers!
I still cant believe i had horrible hamster care and now that i began watching you it has been amazing- i littertly love you smmmm thank you for everything!!
I adopted a dwarf hamster as a companion pet and after watching your video I realised I had to set up the home better for her. I bought her a bigger house and studied her for a week. At the start of the week she was happy. Then she had a day in a bad mood and didn’t seem happy. So today I watched another one of your videos about natural environments and then went to the store and bought more bedding and some tunnels then filled it to make it look like it was a natural environment and I’ve not seen her so happy. Thank you. The video and channel has made the difference. An excited hamster is a happy hamster. 👍👍🙏❤️🐭🇬🇧

I am a first time pet owner looking to get a hamster and throughout my researching I have found your channel time and time again. Thanks for the great resources and help for new and old pet owners alike. Great information and it has helped me feel a lot more confident in my ownership of a hamster. :)
You have been such a great resource since I’ve started researching hamster care!! I’d love to learn about your cleaning methods, how often and what you clean when. That part intimidates me with how big the enclosures should be.
When I was younger my mom bought me a hamster, a friend got us a cage, it was not very good, but I tried my best to research properly but the cage was such a hindrance. Now I am older and have money I want to do it right with a 75 gallon aquarium and plenty of enrichment, a good sized wheel and 6 inches of bedding. I used to watch your videos about 4 years ago it’s good to see that you still upload
Hi! I have recently been watching your videos to learn more about my hamster and how to give her the correct care that penny needs(my hamster). Since then, I went from a critter trail to a 3 floor cage. And on the bottom floor, it has over 750 sq inches, the second has over 450, and the top has over 340 sq in. I have also given my hamster over the BARE minimum of 6in of bedding. I just recently have also started to scatter feed her. I sadly still have a 6.5 in wheel, but I am buying a new wheel tonight for her! You have inspired me to do more for my hamster. Thank you for teaching me and a ton more other people on how to correctly care for a hamster. Thank you.
Hi Victoria, I just wanted to say thank you for all the informational videos you have made about hamsters and how to care for them. I just recently got a 75 gallon tank and have been setting it up with the help of your videos. If not for you, I would have had no idea of how to care for a hamster.
I don't have hamster and i will not have for years because i'm too busy with all my rescue cats and dogs but i love watching and i learn a lot for when my time to be hamster mama comes lol.
I just bought the smaller version of this enclosure and put it together last night. I love it and so does my hamster. I’m so excited to fully decorate it. My hamster burrowed for the FIRST time.
4:15 - 4:24 okay this part is always just *extremely* satisfying for some odd reason. Just the way it all comes out looking like a brick, and then you planting your hands in there- it's just- it looks so soft and pleasing... 😔 LOL I truly am jealous.
I like how it's set up in the thumbnail, closer to a natural environment than when colorful ceramics and things like that. I took your tip qbout burrow starters, I did a couple and he's got a whole network down there now. 👍
My dwarf got his leg caught in the wood bridge we got him out, Worst day ever thought he would die! Also thank you for helping me take better care of my hamsters bc I literally had my Syrian in a critter tail now he’s in a 59 gallon tank so thank you! Also my dwarf passed away to natural causes.
My dad was so confused when I asked him to help me build an enclosure that was 450 square inches or more. I showed him this vid and then some more of your vids. I think he is starting to know more about hamsters and why they need what they need. Thank you, now I can give my hamster what she deserves.
I am planning on getting a syrian hamster soon. I used to have a dwarf hamster or two (at different times) when I was a kid, and I am very happy that I did some more educated research on hamsters. Your videos have been very very helpful, and make me feel more confident that I will be providing a better enclosure for my new pal than what I would have done. Thank you so much for all of your content! You do a great job presenting information!
I got a hamster and didn’t do enough research. After a month or so I found this channel, Victoria has taught so many people how to care for their pets! I threw away her small cage and made her a bin, got her an 11 inch wheel and gave her 10 inches of bedding and a sand bath! And proper hamster feed, not the pet shop mix. She died unexpectedly on Monday with no signs of illness though :( only had her for 5 months but at least in her last 4 I did my best to make her happy. She had so many toys and I got her out to play every night. She made such big burrow! She was called Berry. I hope you have as much fun with your new hamster as I did with my Berry! Cherish every minute and take way too many photos of them x
After watching this video I asked my mom if I could get this NiteAngel Cage for Christmas and she agreed! I absolutely love it, and I have given my hammie about 7-8 inches of bedding!
There is a lot of expensivse things you can make or find yourself. Also you can use like a bake dish for sandbath, make stuff out of wood and such. Btw sorry if this was wordy and Hard to read, im Danish
Hi Victoria! It was my birthday yesterday, and guess what?... I have had a quit small cage for quit a while now, but I did try to make the best out of it! My hamster didn’t give me signs of being bored or nibbling on the cage bars, but then I found your channel! And now finally... I GOT AN IKEA DETOLF! My hamster is gonna love it! Thanks Victoria for all ur tips to make my hamster very very happy!
I bought one today! Hopefully my hamster enjoys it since his been more Agitated lately :( Hopefully the extra space means more room to play and dig holes! :)
Wow XX I just saw the unboxing for this stuff. I can't thank you enough for going through all the products and the hamster habitat set up. Hamsters have such different personalities. Even stuff like water bottle or water bowl can depend on the hamster. I have one that elegantly sips at theirs and another that tramples through theirs knocking it over, and they need a bottle... Maybe a bumpy heavier dish might be the answer!
yesterday i came home from school and i thought my hamster was dead and i went outside and started to cry, went back upstairs and he was drinking his water 😂
i am getting a sirian hamster in four days and i am setting up the cage tomorrow you have helped me so much. i have three options they are images. the one has 1000sq inches of floor space and the other two have 630 i know witch accessories i am getting and everything i have watch every single one of your hamster videos and i am going to give this hamster the best life i possibly can. and it is because of your help! 😌
Who else had a mini party when they found out she had reaches 400k Im so proud My hammie died a couple weeks ago, and I'm getting a new one and I'm going to give her the best life. I'm proud to say I've watched allll Victoria's videos they are so inspirational 🤍
I always hated hamsters cuz when I first met one he kept biting me so I hated them but for my birthday I had like £300 (im british btw) and I got a Syrian hamster and u educated me so much! 🐹❤️ I love watching ur videos! I have a Syrian hamster which is black and white and he is a boy. 😀
I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for your content. I recently decided to purchase a hampster, I have not owned one since I was young. I almost fell into the same mistakes again buying things from the pet store and assuming they are safe/appropriate. After doing more research and watching a tonne of your videos I went from a 10gallon aquarium to a converted China hutch with almost 1000sq inches of floor space, along with a sand bath, natural wood and herbs, a safe and large enough wheel and plenty of substrate depth. I learned so much from your videos and am now much more confident that I will be providing good care to my little buddy (cheeto). Also if you ever have a chance to share your homemade hampster food recipe I would really appreciate it! Thanks again!
Awww I’m excited for a new family member for you! I know you’ll take amazing care. Idk if you following ErinsAnimals, but her mouse sodium passed away. 😢
Anyone look at her THICK layer of bedding and get inspired to add more to yours?✋🏻 🤣 just finished adding 3 more inches of bedding. My girl is loving it 💜
I just got a new Syrian hamster and have some questions. I got her a week ago and every time I put my hand in the cage she walks right over. She's not sacred but she bites whenever I feed her or ruffle her bedding. What should I do? Also I cleaned out her cage and found she was hoarding food. Should I put it back after I finish cleaning?
She might only bite you as you said when you touch her food or bedding but not when u just stick your hand in because you have to remember how big you are compared to him/her, and since you just got them they might be a little afraid that you might take their food away. When they learn to trust you more over time that biting instinct should go away. 2) when I clean my hamsters cage the food she hoards in her hideout I usually don't bother to touch unless I need to do a full clean which is very very rare. Remember you don't need to clean everything out all the time but of course if the bedding in her hideout is soiled then clean it. Up to you if you want to throw it out or just put it back if I touch it I normally just throw it out in exchange for fresh food. Hope this could help ☺️
i haven’t had hamsters for about 5 or 6 years now, and i really want to get back into the hobby, so i’ve been doing some research so i can be an even better hamster owner than before, and i just wanted to say this enclosure is beautiful! far more complex than any of mine from the past, and it’s wonderful. i love the sort of ‘premade burrow’ idea, i will have to try that once i get started
Yes the enclosure is for a new hamster (as mentioned in the video) but please don’t expect to see them anytime soon, it’s likely to be months before they’re actually born and ready to come home.
Hii just wondering what breed is it x

Now I am older and have money I want to do it right with a 75 gallon aquarium and plenty of enrichment, a good sized wheel and 6 inches of bedding. I used to watch your videos about 4 years ago it’s good to see that you still upload
victoria: i just want a little in the corner
also victoria: grabes whole back full off bedding
Im sorry didnt know u would get upset. Im from the Netherlands so yeah but if u just could say it Nicer... thanks for the advise though.
Np

Hi! I have recently been watching your videos to learn more about my hamster and how to give her the correct care that penny needs(my hamster). Since then, I went from a critter trail to a 3 floor cage. And on the bottom floor, it has over 750 sq inches, the second has over 450, and the top has over 340 sq in. I have also given my hamster over the BARE minimum of 6in of bedding. I just recently have also started to scatter feed her. I sadly still have a 6.5 in wheel, but I am buying a new wheel tonight for her! You have inspired me to do more for my hamster. Thank you for teaching me and a ton more other people on how to correctly care for a hamster. Thank you.
Awwwww I love the set up and your new hamster is going to be so lucky!
Thank you!
I am sooo excited for the new hamsterrr!!!
So am I!
Hi Victoria, I just wanted to say thank you for all the informational videos you have made about hamsters and how to care for them. I just recently got a 75 gallon tank and have been setting it up with the help of your videos. If not for you, I would have had no idea of how to care for a hamster.
Love your channel even though I don’t have a hamster. ❤️
Thank you!!
I don't have hamster and i will not have for years because i'm too busy with all my rescue cats and dogs but i love watching and i learn a lot for when my time to be hamster mama comes lol.
Same lol!
You hamsters are going to love this! Love from Atlanta ❤️
Thank you!
I just bought the smaller version of this enclosure and put it together last night. I love it and so does my hamster. I’m so excited to fully decorate it. My hamster burrowed for the FIRST time.
That is awesome!
The cage looks great! You give your hamsters such great enclosures!!! I can't wait to see him/her!
4:15 - 4:24 okay this part is always just *extremely* satisfying for some odd reason. Just the way it all comes out looking like a brick, and then you planting your hands in there- it's just- it looks so soft and pleasing... 😔 LOL I truly am jealous.
I like how it's set up in the thumbnail, closer to a natural environment than when colorful ceramics and things like that. I took your tip qbout burrow starters, I did a couple and he's got a whole network down there now. 👍

the fact that your multi chamber hideout is probably bigger than most crittertrail cages-
😢it’s sad
im gettin one of those but it rpob gonan fill most of my 100 x 50 cm cage but oh well it cna be under bedding!
sad
The BEST I've seen, the ideal habitat for an enriched life...this is one lucky hamster! Layered very well, and beautiful!
Thank you!!
My dwarf got his leg caught in the wood bridge we got him out, Worst day ever thought he would die! Also thank you for helping me take better care of my hamsters bc I literally had my Syrian in a critter tail now he’s in a 59 gallon tank so thank you! Also my dwarf passed away to natural causes.
i LOVE this! Your animals are so lucky to have YOU has there owner!! :)
Thank you!!
My dad was so confused when I asked him to help me build an enclosure that was 450 square inches or more. I showed him this vid and then some more of your vids. I think he is starting to know more about hamsters and why they need what they need. Thank you, now I can give my hamster what she deserves.
My hamster's hideout is on stilts, some nights she burrows so much the hideout is levitating by morning 😅
I wake up and usually the wheel has fallen the hides are all overturned 😭
I got a notif from u and ErinsAnimals both about enclosures at the same time!!! 😂
omg haha
So did I 😂 one about setting one up and erins about cleaning it
@@ciaramaya7815 yea! Exactly! It was funny.
I am planning on getting a syrian hamster soon. I used to have a dwarf hamster or two (at different times) when I was a kid, and I am very happy that I did some more educated research on hamsters. Your videos have been very very helpful, and make me feel more confident that I will be providing a better enclosure for my new pal than what I would have done. Thank you so much for all of your content! You do a great job presenting information!
I’m getting a new hamster for Christmas and he’s gonna be called hipster you have been such a help thank you so much xx❤️
I got a hamster and didn’t do enough research. After a month or so I found this channel, Victoria has taught so many people how to care for their pets! I threw away her small cage and made her a bin, got her an 11 inch wheel and gave her 10 inches of bedding and a sand bath! And proper hamster feed, not the pet shop mix. She died unexpectedly on Monday with no signs of illness though :( only had her for 5 months but at least in her last 4 I did my best to make her happy. She had so many toys and I got her out to play every night. She made such big burrow! She was called Berry. I hope you have as much fun with your new hamster as I did with my Berry! Cherish every minute and take way too many photos of them x
If I was a hamster I would love to live there, it looks so cozy!!
I love seeing people setting up their hammy enclosures, it is so fun! Your hamster is in very good care.
Thank you!!
omg can't wait for the new edition.
I love the cage I’m getting a hamster soon and I am so inspired I’m going to try to go for a natural theme!!
Edit: yes I like my own comment lol
Do it! Natural cages are so pretty and you can get flax seed, apple leaves etc and so much nice stuff from Etsy
After watching this video I asked my mom if I could get this NiteAngel Cage for Christmas and she agreed! I absolutely love it, and I have given my hammie about 7-8 inches of bedding!
That’s awesome
You have helped me out so much it’s crazy
I'm happy to hear that!
Are there any cheap hamster things that you would recommend? I want to redo my hamsters cage but everything is so expensive! Also cage looks great!!!
She has a video about that called:
Owning a hamster on a budget
(I think)
There is a lot of expensivse things you can make or find yourself. Also you can use like a bake dish for sandbath, make stuff out of wood and such. Btw sorry if this was wordy and Hard to read, im Danish
All of these replies are really good, and also I recommend looking on places like Amazon before pet stores, as stuff is a few dollars cheaper!
@@ghemi507 Thanks for unexpected complimemt! ❤️
you can make a lot of things yourself, too, like platforms and chamber hides for cheap with things like balsa wood and wooden dowels.
I love this setup. It’s natural and it will make the hamster feel free
My hamster gets out of his hideout everytime he hears your voice :)
Aw 🥺
I have headphones.....
@@VictoriaRaechel mine does too because I binge your vids while she’s free roaming 🥺 my hammy is my profile picture
Well that proves that everyone loves you, you’ve saved lives Victoria

awhh it looks so good cant wait to meet the new hammy
Me too haha
@@VictoriaRaechel Are you thinking about getting a dwarf? Maybe a Campbell’s?
Hi Victoria! It was my birthday yesterday, and guess what?... I have had a quit small cage for quit a while now, but I did try to make the best out of it! My hamster didn’t give me signs of being bored or nibbling on the cage bars, but then I found your channel! And now finally... I GOT AN IKEA DETOLF! My hamster is gonna love it! Thanks Victoria for all ur tips to make my hamster very very happy!
That's really awesome to hear!!
When Victoria says she’s going to add a little bit of bedding but goes ahead to pour an entire bag of it into the enclosure 😂
It isn’t that much since it spreads out a lot haha
I bought one today! Hopefully my hamster enjoys it since his been more Agitated lately :( Hopefully the extra space means more room to play and dig holes! :)
I cant get over how cute every cage you set up is!!
Thank you!!!
If reincarnation is real I want to come back as one of your hamsters
Enclosure setup videos are really interesting
I keep watching this one over and over because my Niteangel MDF Large is coming in 4 days😁😁😁😁Wink and I are very excited🙌
“Don’t mind the rabbits making noise in the background” lol 😂
lol
wow such a lovely set up!! 🥰🐹
Also does anyone else think that flax sprays are so pretty or is that just me ??
IKR!!
Thank you!! I think all sprays look so pretty in an enclosure haha
Wow XX I just saw the unboxing for this stuff. I can't thank you enough for going through all the products and the hamster habitat set up. Hamsters have such different personalities. Even stuff like water bottle or water bowl can depend on the hamster. I have one that elegantly sips at theirs and another that tramples through theirs knocking it over, and they need a bottle... Maybe a bumpy heavier dish might be the answer!
It is for the hamster that wasn't born yet!
Yes :)
Im excited for the new hamster!
yesterday i came home from school and i thought my hamster was dead and i went outside and started to cry, went back upstairs and he was drinking his water 😂
What a prankster haha
Bhahaha same for me cuz he didn’t wake up until 1 in the morning and I woke up at 3.28 and he was on his wheel 🐹😅
i am getting a sirian hamster in four days and i am setting up the cage tomorrow you have helped me so much. i have three options they are images. the one has 1000sq inches of floor space and the other two have 630 i know witch accessories i am getting and everything i have watch every single one of your hamster videos and i am going to give this hamster the best life i possibly can. and it is because of your help! 😌

I always hated hamsters cuz when I first met one he kept biting me so I hated them but for my birthday I had like £300 (im british btw) and I got a Syrian hamster and u educated me so much! 🐹❤️ I love watching ur videos! I have a Syrian hamster which is black and white and he is a boy. 😀
My hammy was a black and white long haired Syrian who unfortunately passed yesterday in his sleep

My brain: Immediately clicks
I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for your content. I recently decided to purchase a hampster, I have not owned one since I was young. I almost fell into the same mistakes again buying things from the pet store and assuming they are safe/appropriate. After doing more research and watching a tonne of your videos I went from a 10gallon aquarium to a converted China hutch with almost 1000sq inches of floor space, along with a sand bath, natural wood and herbs, a safe and large enough wheel and plenty of substrate depth. I learned so much from your videos and am now much more confident that I will be providing good care to my little buddy (cheeto). Also if you ever have a chance to share your homemade hampster food recipe I would really appreciate it! Thanks again!
Me: first time setting up is ,it ok
Her: EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE PERFECT
Cool
That’s honestly me to lol, I’m just like iT nEEds tO bE PeRfEcT

Awww I’m excited for a new family member for you! I know you’ll take amazing care. Idk if you following ErinsAnimals, but her mouse sodium passed away. 😢
Thank you :) Yes I left her my condolences.
Anyone look at her THICK layer of bedding and get inspired to add more to yours?✋🏻
🤣 just finished adding 3 more inches of bedding. My girl is loving it 💜
Love hearing that!
I just got a new Syrian hamster and have some questions.
I got her a week ago and every time I put my hand in the cage she walks right over. She's not sacred but she bites whenever I feed her or ruffle her bedding. What should I do?
Also I cleaned out her cage and found she was hoarding food. Should I put it back after I finish cleaning?
She might only bite you as you said when you touch her food or bedding but not when u just stick your hand in because you have to remember how big you are compared to him/her, and since you just got them they might be a little afraid that you might take their food away. When they learn to trust you more over time that biting instinct should go away. 2) when I clean my hamsters cage the food she hoards in her hideout I usually don't bother to touch unless I need to do a full clean which is very very rare. Remember you don't need to clean everything out all the time but of course if the bedding in her hideout is soiled then clean it. Up to you if you want to throw it out or just put it back if I touch it I normally just throw it out in exchange for fresh food. Hope this could help ☺️
This kinda makes me sad that some people keep there hamster in tiny cages.
that’s not tiny
I agree with Ashlynn Ann
@@katysmith9621 she is not talking about Victoria Rachel's cage she means for people who put them in small cages

@@lkfos8041 😁
i haven’t had hamsters for about 5 or 6 years now, and i really want to get back into the hobby, so i’ve been doing some research so i can be an even better hamster owner than before, and i just wanted to say this enclosure is beautiful! far more complex than any of mine from the past, and it’s wonderful. i love the sort of ‘premade burrow’ idea, i will have to try that once i get started
I swear setting up hamster cages are soo stressful!😅x
I thought it was just me lol, hours and hours 😹
