you should not and I mean not even get anywhere near them till there 2 weeks old ten gently pt tiny pieces of tourn up toilet paper dont put felt or anything else near them. trust me it might kill them Pt the toilet paperin their sleeping place at night when none of them are in the nest and tissue Paper is perfetly fine
maybe i just put padding in the cage but if you are willing to do an experiment put toilet paper for 1 day and see how your hamster likes it if it likes it keep it there but if it dosen't then take it off oh and make sure you have the padding just in case it doesn't like it

You can use newspaper but should be shredded & is easier if you know someone with a shredder. . they like to build sort of a nest to sleep in & especially if you have a male/female & they have babies. the woodchip stuff is pretty cheap if you can get a lift to a pet store.
I wouldn't. I think you are better using a softer material like torn up J cloth.
It's best to steer clear of dyed paper in bedding. Instead you can use newspaper or toilet paper. the dye in newspaper is safe.
yes you can i do it to save money
No. Normally hamsters have a specific space in their cage which they use as a toilet.
A dwarf hamsters cage can be the same as a regular hamsters'. Metal bars always work! My cousins have dwarf hamsters and they have an aquarium and a metal bar cage connected with plastic tubes. Although they prefer the aquarium more than the metal bar cage they still use the metal bar cage a ton! Hope I helped! :)
This would NOT be a good idea. Clothing can cause the animal to get tangled and trapped inside and may cause suffocation issues. Use any wood shavings for bedding or shreaded clean paper. Not newspaper as the ink on the newspaper can be toxic to small animals.
Robo hamsters are too small for that kind of a cage... they can squeeze through the bars. It would like it, yes, but my sisters mouse (same size as these hamsters) had a cage like that and was trying to get through the bars and suffocated. For my robo hamsters I use a huge fish tank which they like fine
read the package. or use a measuring cup.
Well, I've read that you shouldn't use the cotten that you can buy at the stors because it could tangel up in the hamsters food when it brings in food in their homes and instead that you should use toilet or tissu paper.
yes u can use sawdust with any breed of hamsters
No, they don't eat it. They chew on it and use the shreds for their nest.
no it isn't. it is adetergent, and should never be used in a hamsters cage. if the wheel is squeaky, or the door is stiff, then use cooking oil. it doesn't harm the hamster if it likes it off
how to make a hamsters cage you can use meatel like alot then us hot glue and make it in to square and remember to make a door.i would recommend a store bought cage...make sure your hamster can not get out ,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I think so because I keep my hamster in the same cage I kept my last hamster in. I dont know for sure so ask a proffesional
just tear up afew sheets of kitchen paper, put it in the cage and your hamster will make a nest out of it within a matter of mins! i use kitchen paper for my hamster and she seems to like it just as much as expensive pet-bedding...if not more :)
