*Intro Music*
-Hey guys, so as you may have all known if you watched my previous
videos, I was planning to change my hamster's cage into a German styled
hamster cage. Which is something that just has all natural things. There's a lot of bedding, sand.
basically,
little to no
plastic things and, I finally got enough supplies and things to be able to create that
for Tater Tot, my Roborovski dwarf. When starting off on the side of the cage
you just have the water bottle holder with the glass water bottle.
For the substrate on this side, we do have Aspen. I have a couple of rocks. There is a little dried willow
piece there and then we do have her sand bath, it's just a big container.
In the back there's a grass house and then in the front there's a
willow hide or that's like a willow tunnel. Towards the front there
is this stick and this is just a natural stick from my yard, it has no pesticides or anything,
and I did sanitize it.
It is a dogwood type of wood, which is safe for hamsters. And in the back over here
There is a piece of driftwood along with another piece of dried willow.
Then when you move onto this side there is a different type of substrate
substrate, it is Kaytee Clean and Cozy and there's a lot more of it and it is mixed in with orchard grass
hay to help with burrowing. We have this stick over here, which is
sandblasted grape vine wood. And then there is a quark wood tunnel, which is buried into the substrate,
so you can't really see in there but it goes down into the substrate and then there is another dried willow piece, and
then we just come over here and there is a semi buried wooden hideout. As well as there is this
ledge here attached to the mesh. She can get up onto this,
so this is just right there.
Then when you move up to the level portion of the cage, she does have this rock dish.
I think it's made for reptiles, but it's perfect for this and she has
some of the seed mix that I give her in here as well as some fresh food.
I do like to give some seed mix in a dish just to ensure that she's able to find things but I do as well
sprinkle some of it around the cage.
Then there's like a little ramp she can go up there and then she can go up onto the main
level there is a little wood tunnel, another wood
bendable bridge, and then a bridge that comes down to this big level, which does have her wodent wheel junior,
this is an eight-inch wheel. It is plastic
but that's the only wheel available to me and for her to get up onto this level, she can use this very long
bendable bridge that she can go up and down. So yeah guys
I hope you enjoyed this video and I do know she's going to love this cage as there's plenty of different things to
explore and places to hide so I'm so excited to watch her explore it.
