Gnawing material
Hamster’s teeth continue to grow. That means that the hamsters have to wear their teeth, otherwise they can have problems with their teeth. Teeth that have become too long can grow through the palate or through the lips and even the nose. This is particularly painful for the hamsters and also prevents them from eating. In the worst case, they can no longer eat. You will notice that your hamster is getting very lean. He wants to accept his food and is also very happy with it, but does not eat it afterwards.
Because a limestone is quite controversial, it is better to choose a responsible solution, such as gnawing wood: Willow and / or Linde. Gnawing wood also approaches the natural gnawing way of the hamsters in the wild. In the wild they gnaw after all, not fast on stones.
It’s not like hamster gnaw all day long. A hamster gnaws only when he needs to gnaw and when necessary.
