QUOTE(LuQEE @ Feb 17 2012, 09:17 PM) haha... well havent tried that, but i have tried putting him in my breast pocket with his head pop up looking at ppl when going to the mall during winter... and he just stayed and watched in there quietly(during summer, cant do that at all since he likes to climb up and run away). thanx well in my case, the last time i used is the all natural aspen bedding(since both pine and cedar can cause alot of problems to our little furries). they can be in form of pallet(use this, i recommend you since its not sharp, no dust, and can serap the bau more than shavings) or shavings too, and cheap of course. but here, they look a bit expensive >.<.
but if ure looking for alternatives like me, since at first owning Peanut, i got no money haha, so i DIY his bedding. 1) if u got a paper shredder at home/office, USE Them!! makesure use plain white paper since u dont want those carbon inks on surat khabar end up in ure hammy mouth. (if kaya, just buy the recycle paper pallets, but i dont like to prefer them since i dont know how they make them and what chemical they use on it to produce those stuffs). If you dont have shreddar, just cut the paper manually la.. haha 2) Or if ure office has a lot of paper puncher
 collect all of those circular cut papers(trust me, you need alot of them, beg my Uni lecturers to give me every month..haha) and use them. just make sure no scented paper are within that pile.
you can mix both of this 1 & 2 to get better result since my hammy likes to play with his bedding very very much.. and like to jump in that circular cut paper piles and drag all the long paper strips everywhere, ending up making my room a lil bit messy in the morning. NOT recommended to hammy who likes to chew paper though..mine just like to chew tissue.. where you get aspen bedding???  at UK? still at UK? here malaysia so hard to find aspen bedding...

I am sure many of us in this thread is willing to buy aspen bedding...(m i right? dream, mark, noruddin  ) or maybe you want to help us by becoming the agent that could 'kirim' for us?

QUOTE(LuQEE @ Feb 17 2012, 11:31 PM) well i cant be the agent since im currently working in here. when i was there, we tend to buy bulks and share with each other, also, if you already potty train, the 10L bedding can last about 6months +/- since u just need to scoop out a half of the palm of the potty bedding and replace with new one and sumtimes you can just change monthly for the entire bedding(if they are not dirty or wet). Try this Link!! maybe you all can buy in bulk, then kongsi with each other and try if they accept international postage(usually they wont ship electronic materials), if they wont allow international postage, you maybe can try this? Vpost?? only problem is shipping fees is going to cost a bomb...  plus i dont have credit card... HAHA!

QUOTE(LuQEE @ Feb 17 2012, 11:51 PM) i know... well..you can try chipsi bedding..since they are much more efficient pine and cedar without the risks of course and can be found here readily in malaysia >.< a bigt pricey..but hey...better than ppine and cedar right? Click ME mwahahah!!! what do you think?
EDI|t** btw, try to avoid using any wood type bedding when ure furries have any babies since they might cause slight irritation to their puny noses, but if they are 200% dust free, thens its ok la...haha. to make sure they are dust free(not 100% accurate), use multiple sizes flour net or something to tapis them before using those beddings. used to use chipsi bedding....it was the best brand until i tried delikate....now i prefer delikate bedding http://www.petsmore.com/media/catalog/prod...lakes_1kg-l.jpg

yeah thru research aspen is the best of the best because its hardwood. softwood are bad but much cheaper such as pine and cedar BAD BAD BAD!
i do have a paper shreader which i bought just to scrap paper for hamlet the thing is i am sort of afraid he might get a paper cut in his cheekpouch when he carries bedding in his mouth to travel
i dont think using a hole puncher is a good idea because the paper are so small it will get stuck in his pouch paper is digestable but still imagine having small paper in your mouth and you cant use your fingers to dig it out. annoying isnt it

QUOTE(pikeydude @ Feb 15 2012, 02:10 AM) Hi, I just bought 2 WW hamsters a few hours ago. When they were transported back in a plastic container, both of them were doing fine. I put them in a glass thank 2 ft by 1ft. There were doing fine initially but when both of them bump into each other, one will chase the other until the other is back into the hiding house. So, one is always exploring and the other is always hiding in the house... Is this temporary or it's time to split the tank into 2 parts with wire mesh, which they still can see and smell each other, for a while? Or let them both to settle it themselves? Thanks. I separated them with a hard cardboard and apparently they managed to chew a hole  and now they both can go into each other's side via that hole. Luckily they have made peace and sleeping together nicely now  .

Have anybody experience winter white hamster pups born same time but different size? Today, the babies are 10 days old.. weird i saw 1 small size. from the size it does look like 5 days old, but others bigger. that little one is active and doesn't look sick at all.. just that the size is smaller than other 4.

NO! chances of losing your hamster is high as they wont sit & will surely bite if you dont let them go. plus its already stated no animals on the plane...once they find out you will be in trouble...

Because in a litter, it will bound to have one small and one bigger than the other hamster. The stronger one will get more food while the younger one will have less. I have 2 robos where one is always bigger than the other no matter how much food i put for them. Its not sick. its like that. QUOTE(babybb @ Feb 25 2012, 09:44 AM) Guys my hammy is losing furs at his chest area.. It is normal?? Mine is robo & 1yr plus old.. Kinda woli him..  I think the bedding might be the problem and sometime old hamster might have this prob. Their pee can affect it too. Or maybe, they have mites. I guess you need to clean their cage more often and change a different bedding.
