Welcome to the September 2020 Cage Makeover! As usual, after a month Beanie’s last makeover is dwindling, and it’s in need of a clean. I hope this post interests you and that it inspires you for setting up your own hammy’s cage!
First I did the usual, removing all the dirty substrate, adding in the clean stuff, and adjusting it to begin setting up Beanie’s home.
Since I wanted this setup to be more naturalistic, I submerged two bark caves in the substrate for hiding and burrowing from.
I then added Beanie’s wheel, rock, and for good measure, my corner hidey house.
I now put in a Bran-Bowl, chew block, bendy bridge, water bowl, and food dish. Although I scatter feed Beanie I do like to put a food dish, which Beanie enjoys sitting in.
And for the final touches, some shredded tissue for nesting material, and food.
Voila! The setup is complete. I love the natural appearance, and just how fresh it looks!
