What types of nesting material are there for Hamsters?

There are different types of nesting material available. When it comes to the preference of hamsters, they prefer to choose the softest nesting material. They use the material that is the softest inside their nest. They also prefer to sleep in it. The hamsters use nesting material that is slightly firmer, such as hemp or grass, as a second layer. They line their burrows with this. Hemp in particular is very nice because it retains its shape and does not have to be replaced with every change. Some hamsters really make a round nest here, very nice to see!

Is Natural Nesting Material Good for Hamsters?

It is good to use natural materials as nesting material. For example, synthetic Hamster wadding is not recommended. If the hamster ingests the synthetic fibers, they cannot be digested by the body and cause blockages in the animal's intestines. You will therefore not find hamster cotton wool on our digital shelves. The types of nesting material you can buy from us are safe and digestible.

Which nesting material for Hamsters is suitable for summer and winter?
