I've heard it is bad for them and good so i don't really know, i would prefer no about it but the good side they said was if it was kiln-dried.
Pine bedding can increase respiratory problems in hamsters.
Carefresh bedding is best. Bedding containing pine or cedar may cause problems to the hamster's respiratory system.
dwarf hamsters need the same bedding as normal hamsters which is straw or shavings which you can get in a pet shop.
First of all, DO NOT USE PINE!!!!! Second, do some research and if necessary buy some medicine or go see your vet. Also, change your bedding ASAP to either Carefresh or other paper materials (i have Boxo at the moment) or Aspen. Those are both fine. Pine and Cedar are bad for your hamsters health. P.S. You can also use Kiln Dried Pine bedding but in your situation i wouldn't use any pine
A Teddy Bear Hamster's real name is a Syrian Hamster. Syrian Hamsters are often allergic to cedar and pine. That's why these should be used as bedding, chew toys, etc.
Dwarf hamsters - each other and on suitable hamster bedding. Syrian - on their own and on suitable hamster bedding.

Yes it collect dust and cause upper restpitory problems. P.s you are not supposed to uuse pine bedding ethier because it has the same effect
Because when hamsters poo or wee on their bedding it gets pressed down and squashed! Xx

Yes, newspaper ink can be toxic to hamsters if ingested, so it is not recommended as bedding material. It's best to use safe bedding options for hamsters like aspen shavings, paper-based bedding, or commercial hamster bedding from pet stores.
