I've FINALLY made a video to discuss everything about sand baths! I now hope to never receive the question "what sand do you use?" again 😂 Some things I forgot to mention in the video was that sand from outdoors/the beach should never be used as even baking it does not properly sanitize it. As well as it's okay for your hamster to try and eat some of the sand at first, they're just curious and after a few times, they'll stop.

@alternatea4591 2 года назад

hi, I need advice. i bought Menards brand "All-purpose dried sand" (if you look it up, it's the beige bag with the wild west font on the giant word "SAND") it says it can be used for sandboxes, but its main point is concrete, and i think the grains are designed more to fit together closely rather than be soft and round. it says it's kiln-dried, but not specifically heat treated, so i could always bake it to be sure. my main concern is that the grains might be too rough and end up hurting him. i don't know if it's possible to return it to the store. does anyone know if this is okay or if i should get a different brand? i couldn't find anything that said specifically for kids when i was there

@ThePackDad 5 лет назад

It took months to convince my wife to allow our daughter to get a hamster because she's afraid of mice and rats. Penny (the hamster, not my wife), was frightened and bit each of us once, but after lots of positive attention and some time, she's friendly, curious and silly. Now, we'll sit on the couch while Penny crawls around and over us. My wife even gets a kick out of scooping her up and holding her. We had a good friend watch her while we were gone for 2 whole weeks and Penny hid the entire time. As soon as she heard my daughter's voice, she came running out and started climbing the bars full of curiosity. Hamsters make great pets and they do remember you. Good luck. PS - Their bite is like a good hard pinch. Not that bad.

@simplyheaven7173 3 года назад

You should put the 3 sands inside of your hamsters cages, and record their reactions. After a few weeks, give them a different brand until they've tried all and whichever had the most positive outcome is their favorite or if you're doing it overall, share the recordings and tell which one won and that could be the most comfortable brand for hamsters. (1. Its ok if you dont do this its a suggestion not a demand, 2. If this doesn't make any sense just tell me and I'll see if i can make it simpler)

Ohh I loved this! Honestly I feel like sand is looked at something optional instead of a necessity which I find very sad! Also, thank you for mentioning that those little ceramic hides are too small for sand! A lot of people also use really small bowls, so I'm really happy you brought that up! Another interesting thing that may be note worthy to some is that here in Germany we say that robos should have about 1/3 of their cage be sand as they come from sandy environments and it helps with good well-being. Keep making your great videos as always :)

Thank you so much for this. I've been struggling to find sand that didn't have reviews saying it was dusty. My local Home Depot has a 50 lbs bag of play sand for under $5.00, so I'll definitely be opting for that! Your channel is vital for people like me who want to do the best for their hamsters but are starting from scratch.

I didn’t know that chinchilla bathing sand is bad. Luckily my mom bought sand for some construction so that’s what I’ll use

@kumabear1030 3 года назад

The recipe used to be so good! About 2 years ago, it was this golden, non dusty sand, but now it’s grey and dusty, very disappointed in Tiny Friends :(

Perfect I’m planing on doing a natural theme cage and I need to put a large sand bath in there that’s cheap. I think I’ll go with the children’s play sand and just sift through it.THANK YOU!!!

@ElohiSilverEarthVentures 10 месяцев назад

Ok so ive learned that my dearf hamster digs in his sand bath as if hes a big old dog digging to escape his tiny yard....my hamster throws nearly all hia sand out of the sand bath bowl that even has a lid and he just turns his butt towards the opening and digs like mad throwing it all out and at first it was flying onto his wheel so that wasnt good, i moved it on other side, but still this sand isnt cheap and hes throwing it everywhere outside in his substrates and bedding

@lunarbutterfly7 5 лет назад

Another option for your viewers. I use Carib Sea all natural aquarium sand. Its pretty affordable and also doesn’t need to be sifted or baked. My dwarf loves her baths! I got an oval ceramic dish for her to bathe in and she seems to like it.

@VictoriaRaechel 5 лет назад

Yes! Just needs to be 100% with no dyes or anything added!

@horseyshorts4791 Год назад

Can I just use normal hamster bathing sand? Because I think i remember you said something about it being too fine.

@Grippies888 4 года назад

Hai Victoria! I have a question for you that would be very appreciated if you would take the time to answer it but of course its understandable if you didnt 😁👍. So my dad has this REALLY big bag of just normal sand (that's what he says) and so we washed it 2 times (to take out the dirt), then we sifted it once, baked it with the correct temperature and time and sifted it 3 and a half more times. I wanted to know what you thought and if it is safe for my hamster before I give it to him 😁🐹⛑

@VictoriaRaechel 4 года назад

If it's not super rough and not dusty it should be fine!

I have the tiny friends farm sand!! But I don’t have the money to get better sand because I also have to buy everything for my rabbits and I have to go 5 hours away so now I have to buy many carriers for my rabbits and hamsters and toys for them. I feel so bad now. What should I do? I have no one that can take care of my animals while I’m gone so I have to take them with me

@SoapMonkeeyy 5 лет назад

Amazon is actually more expensive to buy the reptile sand in Canada. I get mine at big als for around $14 and I’ve gotten it on sale at Petsmart for $12
