Hi, as I don't really know much about bedding, I've been using Chipsi Green Apple for some time alrdy. Will my hamster fall sick becoz of this bedding? If I change to Chipsi Classic after I finished the Green Apple 1 will it be too late? Hope you guys can help.

ooo, mean our used bedding can be fertilizer for plants? at 1st i thought to throw away...

its ok to use as long as its not ellegy.. u can finished it only buy the classic one..

Thanks for ur reply How to know whether they are allergy towards it or not? I regret buying that

I remember one of the forumer's hamster got a nose bleed caused by allergy.

i just have a pet shop trip today ... seems the chipsi classic is running out of stock from the market? cuz i saw only chipsi v green apple in PLC ... and even my friend also said that chipsi classic is hard to find recently ... is it true? they donwan to produce chipsi classic liao?

i saw the Alex bath sand at the pet shop today. The back of the packing is same with the one i bought from the forumer wor ... but the price got big different >.< So, is it a original one?

Maybe beddings should be written is huge letters on the front page since it is a common issue.

A lot of places only supply cheapo stuff.

I am curious about our some dailor forumer's identity

is Nezu a nutritionist or biologist? how come u know so much about those nutrition thingy and even the ingredient of the bedding (which that i still dun understood )

is jtl the lady boss of petshack?

Yup, jtl is Joan. One half of petshack.

my hamsters have been clearing up the bedding before sleeping for a few days now. Although they put some of the bedding in front of the upper floor house, not inside...no idea why. Is it because they don't like the scent?

btw, what do you think about Woody Pet bedding?

you don't need to be a biologist to know about these things. Just learn it by doing lots of research. There are more elites in other subforums, you just haven't seen them.

I using it, good product, if you use it for hamster can last you very very long time cos hamster pee amount is lesser. If you wood shaving is another good choice too, I am using Chipsi Classic too, 1 month about 15kg -+.

15kg per month???
15 litres you mean

Hahhaha.. ya 15kg per month chipsi classic, so I stock up like a chipsi warehouse For less then 5 hamsters of cause won't use 1 bag(3.6kg) of chipsi classic per month la. And some more I am using TOGETHER with woody pet to 'help up' the suction...

I used to use Living World pine bedding because that's what most petshops use for their hamsters *shrugs*. But since many hammie owners advocate pine-free bedding, I switched to Breeder Celect. But I hated it because the color is horrid (dark gray) and it's not exactly dust-free as mentioned in the website. And my Bella had trouble running around on hard pellets.

Now I switch to using disposable paper towels that you can buy in a huge roll (exactly the same as those you find in hotel toilets, you pull pull pull the dispenser handle and tear as much off as you like haha). I just line the base of the cage with two layers of paper towers every week. I don't have to worry about pine, Bella moves easier on the smooth surface and she enjoys shredding the paper, so it's all good.

i just bring home 2 robo yesterday
my manager gave them to me since her hamster give birth for....at least 3 times since jun/july till now

anyway, i'm trying to learn more about hamster right now so i can provide the best for them without over burning my own pocket

i c alot of u give smoothies to your hamster...can i know wat exactly is it??

thank for reading & thanks for the future reply's

Cheers !!!

Not too sure how much it cost because my mother bought the paper towels for kitchen use even before I had my hamster (which shows how long one huge roll can last!).

I can't advise you where to buy in KL, because I am in Kuching. But I know my mother bought it from a shop that sells Kimberly-Clark, Kleenex and Scott paper and toilet items.

You go to http://www.thefind.com/office/info-roll-towel and look at the picture for Kleenex® Non-Perforated Hard-Roll Paper Towel. It looks exactly like that.
