How many grams of bedding do you put in a rabbit cage?
The cage that I have is different but what I normally do is put some wood shavings in my hamsters' cage up until he can reach the wheel, since mine is a dwarf hamster and can't really reach it. If you mean the nice fluffy bedding, like critter care, just put as much as you want in it till you think it is enough. (S)he will tear it up and place it where (s)he wants. Hope this helps :)

What is the best kind of bedding to put in a hamster cage?
You should never use pine or cedar bedding for your pet hamster. Cedar bedding is a rough material that can cause splintering, chapped feet and is almost impossible to correctly digest. Worse yet, cedar reacts to urine, causing toxic fumes called phenols to be released as long as it is in contact with the ammonia. While pine may be a bit softer on a hamster's feet, it often goes through a curing process that leaves dangerous chemicals on the product. The best kind of bedding is aspen shavings and carefresh, you can also try using shredded unscented toilet paper.
