Trixie Cork Tunnel L is natural and unique. Each cork tunnel has its own shape and that makes them so nice to use for hamster scapes, for example. The cork tunnel stimulates natural behavior in small rodents, because it has a tunnel shape. Small rodents such as Mice, Dwarf Hamsters, Hamsters, Gerbils and Degus also live in tunnels and holes in the wild, which is why they feel completely at home around a cork tunnel!
✔ Made from 100% natural, untreated cork bark
✔ High quality cork (made from a piece of cork bark from the cork oak)
✔ Stimulates natural behavior
Cork tunnels not only provide a hiding place, but also give the animals the opportunity to climb a bit. A cork tunnel is absolutely no challenge for mice, gerbils and degus, because these animals can climb well, but for dwarf hamsters that is a different story. Dwarf hamsters are naturally bad climbers, but they will be so proud of themselves if they brave a cork tunnel!
Thanks to the irregular shapes of the cork tunnel, the nails are indeed carefully cared for as the animals clamber over them. However, the cork tunnel has no abrasive properties, it is more of a small pedicure.
We believe that the cork tunnel can also be used as a form of challenge for the animals. Thanks to the irregular shape of the bark, mice, gerbils and degus can easily get a grip on it. For example, place the tunnel for these animals at a slight angle upwards to a higher floor or use the tunnel as a form of bridge from one part to another. However, do not do this with Dwarf Hamsters, because these animals cannot climb well and do not see depth. For Hamsters, for example, the tunnel can be dug into the ground cover, so that the animals have a tunnel.
Yes! We have discovered that the cork tunnel can be used as a great snack hiding place. Simply place a treat between the jagged cracks in the bark and let the animals search for it and then try to get to it. What a great activity! Just like in the wild!
The inner diameter of these cork tunnels is between 10 and 19 cm. This is an excellent diameter for Rats and Degus, but for the slightly larger Guinea Pig it can be a bit tight. Small rodents such as: Mice, Dwarf Hamsters, Hamsters, and Gerbils can also enjoy this spacious cork tunnel.
The bark is not made in the factory, but comes from the cork tree. The bark is removed from the tree with all its natural elements intact, such as moss, natural fungi, roots, twigs, leaves, etc. You can easily brush these natural elements off the bark.

Geweldige accesoire voor n natuurlijk hamsterverblijf..begon na n poosje wel erg te ruiken omdat mn hamster er in plast..af en toe leg ik m een poosje in n sopje van afwasmiddel en azijn. Ook spuit ik m van binnen af en toe in met de spray die werkt met enzymen om de urine af te breken..werkt super..kun je vinden bij ..verzorging...
De tunnel was wel heel groot, maar door hem in tweeën te breken paste het perfect in het verblijf van mn hamster
Het is een geweldige tunnel voor de ratjes, maar de tunnel is niet 55 cm lang. Hij is nog geen 30 cm lang, maar desondanks past hij mooi in de kooi.
