Well you want it to be comfortable but not suffocate in its bed. I would say enough that would be good and comfortable for the hamster. Hope it helps
No, it is not safe to give your hamster tin foil as bedding. Your hamster may chew on it, which can lead to ingestion and potential health issues. It is best to provide safe, species-appropriate bedding materials such as paper-based bedding or aspen shavings.
a golden hamster nests in its bedding and its bedding is like hay
If your hamster bedding looks brown it needs to be changed. Urine turns the bedding brown. It should be changed weekly.
mine almost suffocated so yes
You should put your hamster in a safe place, or have someone else hold it for you. If you have a hamster ball, let your hamster exercise in that while cleaning out it's bedding.
Dwarf hamsters - each other and on suitable hamster bedding. Syrian - on their own and on suitable hamster bedding.
Hamsters can have only wood shaving bedding. This is because with paper bedding, they will eat it, store it in their cheeks and get an infection. While most wood shaving beddings are okay, you want to stay away from cedar bedding. Cedar bedding irritates the hamster's skin and causes hair loss. Aspen bedding is definitely safe for the hamster to use.
no. I have a hamster and usually I change its bedding every week. You do not have to put a whole bag in its cage. happy hamster careing! :-)
Shredded newspaper is fine to use for bedding for any hamster, but if you think you hamster is slightly uncomfortable you can always add some real hamster bedding, it will save you money. :)

Wood hamster bedding offers several benefits for your pet hamster's enclosure. It provides a natural and comfortable environment for your hamster to burrow and nest in. Wood bedding also helps control odors and absorbs moisture, keeping the enclosure clean and dry. Additionally, wood bedding is safe for hamsters to chew on, which helps maintain their dental health.
