Im glad you know how to actually care for a hamster. Maybe once hes used to his cage you might want to give him a couple more inches of bedding in a certain area just so he can burrow. He may not be a “burrower” my last hamster always preferred being on top of the bedding, but a little more bedding never hurt hahah. Everything looks great and the bin cage looks big enough, its also amazing that you’ve had experience with another hamster so i know he will be in good hands!👏👍

Sage Dramberger how much did u give your last hamster

Because I have seen several comments about different concerns I just wanted to clear some thing up, 1. I have put several more inches of bedding in the cage since this video so Rhino can burrow, 2. Rhino now has an 11in wheel, 3. I realize I should not have touched Rhino right when I put him in the cage and for that I am sorry. ❤️ I did leave him alone for the next few day though. I have done a lot of research about correct hamster care, even though I did make a few mistakes in this video and I just wanted to let you all know I am still learning. Anyways though, anyone wanting updates about taming Rhino or just some cute pictures check out my hamster instagram! @fuzz.ball.hams

I love that you have a bin cage, but there were some things that you could have done a little differently. 1. It's a good idea to set up the cage before hand so you can let them out right away. 2. It's not a good idea to handle them right away even if they were quite tame at the store. 3. I know you mensioned this in the video, but it's not a good idea to stop at any places when you are taking them home. You want to get them home as soon as possible. *we learn from our mistakes* By the way i would love to see videos with him.💚 edit: i noticed that you have the snak shak log and hideout ( looks like it not sure) if it is i would like to mension that they aren't safe because they're made from pine wood as the main ingriedient and if they chew on it it can be unsafe. If you are still using them you will probably want to take them out for your hamsters safety.👍 Also i'm sure that you learned a lot from hamster youtube chanels but just in case i would like to write down my favourite hammy youtubers you can learn a lot from💚 -Erins animals -Victoria Raechel - Hopping Hammy Note: there are more than this but in my opinion these are the main chanels you can learn the most from.💚 Good luck

Some of the things on these two resources say that you should all ready be fully prepared before your hamster comes home. If you are taking your time setting up your hamster cage and not being prepared it could really stress for hamster out being in a tiny box/carrier while you try and set up your cage. Those are just the facts 😌💅🏼

Hi! Congrats on your new special hammy Rhino! I’d highly recommend to add at least 6 inches of bedding in one area to allow him to display his natural burrowing ability, and make sure your wheel is at least 9 inches in diameter to prevent future back issues❤️ Besides that your hamster care is lovely! I have two at home myself ehe

What did they tell you at petsmart? I work at petsmart as a pet care associate and if an animal is up for adoption they are free. You don’t pay an adoption fee or else they are just selling it back to you. What people don’t understand is when we get a hamster returned we quarantine it for 3 days and then return it to sales floor as long as the animal is completely healthy. If they are sick they see a vet. If they end up needing treatment and something makes them unsellable they are placed for adoption. We LOVE when people come in to adopt the more scared, special needs or aggressive ones xxxxxx ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ok so I’ve owned hamsters my whole life , and is now actually a hamster breeder . Throughout the years I’ve learned new things about hamsters , now I know so much , and my future job is to work with pets . I seen at the ending of the video you wanted some of your viewers tips for taming , mine are just to not feel scared or nervous when sticking your hand into your hamsters cage , because your hamster will sense that you are scared of it and most likely feel scared their self and bite you . I own hamsters at the moment , only because they don’t have homes at the moment because of corona my breeding job is slowed down , but I just wanted to let you know that if your hamster does bite you don’t be mean to it , it just feels threatened, and that’s how they protect her selves . I’ve owned a Syrian hamsters most of my life, and noticed that they are the best hamsters for beginners, and for everyone who wants a nice and calm hamster. I’ve only been bitten by my Syrian hamsters a few times, only because they were stressed out, thought my hand was food, smell something good on my hands, was woken up, or felt threatened of my hand next to them , in this war most likely only happen if there a new hamster . If you do have this problem make sure that when you first get your hamster you let it settle in the cage for 2 to 3 days , another thing that can help them feel comfortable of your hand, is to get a handful of their bedding and rub it all over your hands and place it back in the cage . HOPE THIS HELPED !!!

I’m glad that someone actually takes care of a hamster for a video. Just some advice for next time, you want to make sure that the hamster goes straight into the cage when you get home, so you should have the cage set up already. Also you should make getting your hamster the last stop. It just causes less stress for the hamster. But overall great job! 🐹🐹🐹

For his water you can stick Velcro homeless side of the cage and he needs a bigger water

Your cage looks great I would just recommend putting him a few more inches of bedding so they can burrow and your hamster is soooo cute

After years of trying to get my parents to let me get a hamster they finally said yes and im getting it tomorrow!

Omg he’s sooo cute! I’m really happy😃that he’s going home with someone who will give him an amazing life!

As you said in the video once he gets bigger you definitely need to get a bigger weal by the looks of ot this is a great cage he is so cute but the weal fits him for now

Everything looks great! The only things I would recommend is giving him a slightly bigger sandbath as well as adding some kind of protein lab block to his food mix. Other than that cage looks amazing thanks for the quality content!

Omg his first burrowing 😭 so cute

I am so glad that you did your research on hamsters! I see so many people who don't do their research or impulse buy hamsters it makes me so sad :( My hamster just recently passed away but I will be adopting another one soon when the virus calms down.

I’m so glad you took him he looks lush and hamsters deserve the best and it’s really bad the way he has been treat , love him ❤️

I would recommend giving him about 6 inches of bedding on one half or the whole thing so he can burrow and make tunnels but everything else seems amazing😊

What a cutie and I’m so happy this isn’t an impulse buy! But maybe add a couple more inches of bedding when you can!

How cute, and wonderful that you know how to care for him! Keap doing what your doing, and he's so adorable!

im so happy I finally found a youtuber who can actually take care of a hamster

I watched this so many times bc I couldn’t find any other good video about buying a hammy!❤️

I’m glad you have a big enough box for him to live in and enough bedding and food but I would just wait for him to climb out the box and have the home ready before but you are great caring for him! :)

I love I that you got a returned hammy , that’s so nice 😊. I’m getting a hamster on Saturday.

It's fun watching him explore

very pretty set up and great care! And the only suggestions I have is getting him a bigger sand bath so he can have a lot of space to roll around in!! And I would suggest a water dish just cause it’s way easier and my dwarf hamster loves it!:)

Just a couple tips... If you don’t want him to tip over the toys you could give him a corner with only bedding. Put some peanut butter near the area the hamster drinks his water, that will attract him to it and he’ll start to drink the water. But besides that you really know how to take care of the hamster and he’s so lucky to have gotten adopted

as far as water you can get a small food dish or any type of small dish even if it’s not meant for hamsters for example a tea light candle holder. as long as it’s small enough that they couldn’t sit in it and a heavier type of material like ceramic or glass so they can’t tip it over it will work. you can also use a water bottle and some good things to attach with are industrial strength velcro or even the sticky tape that goes in command strips. although in my experience i have found even then the water bottles still fall it works for a few months at least.

I think its awesome that you used a bin cage! I love all the toys. Im glad you gave him a sand bath and an appropriate sized wheel. More people should take better care of their animals like this. Only recommendation is more bedding so he can burrow. 6-8 inches is recommended

i am adopting 2 hamsters next week! the owner said theyre siblings , And i did some research hammies aren’t supposed to be together because they’re solitary so i bought 2 cages for em !

your hamster is so cute and i am so excited for you! this video was posted a month ago so i'm not sure if something has changed by now but i would suggest getting him a bigger wheel about 12 inches if you can :) i recommend Carolina storm wheels they are really big and my past hamster loved his. i don't want this to come across as hate or controlling, you seem to really know what you are doing and seem pretty educated. that's just my one suggestion for you but other than that i think you did a great job and i love that bin cages are becoming so popular now and it looks like a good size!

I loved your animal care! ❤️

He’s so cute I love when i get any animals with nice markings x

Yay I love how u adopted a hamster!😊😊😊😊😊

Great care! For water you can use a bowl as it gives them easier access to water. Remember that minimum of 7 inchs of bedding so please add a bit more. If you can afford some more enrichment that's great also!

Congrats on the new hamster.

So first of all I think that you really care about your hamster which is great! Nevertheless I would recommend you some things: 1. The cage looks a bit too small to me. I may also be wrong, if so I'm sorry but it looks like it's on the smaller side so I would give him a bigger home especially as he still grows. 2. I think the wheel is already too small because his back bends a bit. It is just slightly but it can still cause issues. I'm glad that you know you'll have to upgrade eventually but better do it sooner than later. Also I like that you gave him a sandbath but I think it's too small aswell, hamsters tend to go crazy in their sandbaths but as it's shorter than him he may hurt himself or it is just uncomfortable. 3. You may want to give him more bedding, at least in one corner. Hamsters love digging (I know there are exceptions but still) so you want to give him that opportunity :) Good luck with your hamster friend though, I'm very sure you're caring and just wanting the best for him!

Hopefully I can add on another cage at to increase the room he has at some point, not sure when that will be though (hopefully soon). Thank you again, you obviously know a lot about hamsters! 😉

Great job! Definitely need like 4 more inches of bedding. But he looks happy😊

I have a hamster that is a boy and I've had for about a month or month and a half. He is probably 5 months old. I think he was mishandled by the former woman and her toddler daughter who had him because he is so skittish (I adopted him off craigslist) and won't go onto my hand unlike my last hamster. He is super adorable though and sweet, he doesn't bite me. I'm just trying to feed him treats from my hand and pet him gently when I can.. I hope I can eventually hold him. Rhino is a very adorable hamster BTW ! Glad to see that you adopted and saved him out of that horrible situation.. My hamster Bobo(renamed him) wasn't in a good situation either. No toys, 1 hideout, wheel, tiny cage, hardly any bedding. He would always climb the bars. I'm glad we can provide a better living situation for these little guy''s welfare. Keep making awesome videos!

I recommend putting a few more inches of bedding on at least one third of the cage. Love his name too!

I’m so happy that you have good care and actually care about your hamster!💕 you will have to upgrade the wheel when he gets bigger, a Syrian hamster needs at least an 11 inch, you will also need a bigger hide for him🤍 they actually need more bedding than people think, yes they can burrow in 4 inches but they can’t make a burrow. For them to be able to make a proper burrow they need 8 inches of bedding, you could make half the cage 8 inches. Ceep up the good care❤️❤️

Plz get 2 guinea pigs, your not doing it any favors by getting just 1. It can cause health problems. They are very social and are used to living in herds. Do some research as well about what kind of veggies is healthy and what type of hay to get and type of pellets. DON’T GET A HAMSTER WHEEL OR BALL! They break the guineas backs. Make sure to get a cage that is 10 to 13 square feet because they need a lot of room, the cages at pet stores are WAY too small. Plz don’t get a guinea pig if you don’t have the right items and don’t do research. Also I would recommend getting a cage fleece liner because it is way cheaper than bedding, but make sure they are cage fleece liners and not fleece blankets. Get 1 hideout for each guinea pig so they can hide. Don’t take them out for at least a day or 2 so they adjust well (including opening the box in the car). I would also recommend getting a kitchen scale to weigh them occasionally to check if they are losing weight (signs of illness). Check their feet every once in a while to make sure they are pink. Brush back their fur too sometimes to check for wringworm (it is a piece of fur missing and can be scaly and scabby) if there is hair missing behind the ears that is totally normal and not wringworm. They are prone to a lot of other illnesses though. Don’t listen to the workers plz if your gonna shop and not adopt/rescue, they only care about your money and not about you pet/pets. Plz take care of them good :)

This is absolutely no hate at all you did so good trying to adopt him and as well as providing a bin cage but the wheel you gave him an 8 inch wheel cause it is to small for an adult Syrian. Also you could give him a bigger sand bath because he wouldn't be able to use it that much. And about the water bottle you can always pick up some industrial Velcro from your local hardware store. Other then that you did a really good job. I wish you and Rhino the best!

I got my hamster just before quarantine and the conditions were HORRIBLE in the pet store. His wheel was so small and it was WIRE MESH. I felt so bad for him and they were only feeding him HUGE pellets that looked like they were for rabbits. I felt so bad, I was so happy I could give him a better home.

••• Unicorn_gacha ••• no I don’t think the size of the cage necessarily effects a hamsters life span or makes them live shorter lives, however it will definitely effect the hamsters quality of life. The bigger the cage the better and 450 sq inches is required (that is a 40 gallon breeder or 110 qt bin cage). Also small cages are known to stress hamsters out and that’s why the bar climb and chew on the bars. Hope this helped!

@littlestars7537

Yes they will live in a small cage but it could possibly shorten their life span due to high stress levels, but even if they are living in a small cage they are not thriving and they won’t have a good quality of life, the bare minimum is 450 square inches of floorspace in the US or 585 square inches of floorspace in the UK.

I glad that you put lots of toys for your hamster to play with, but you should add more bedding you should at least 6 inches of bedding for Rhino to burrow in and put a bigger sand bath because I think Rhino can only just sit in it. What type of sand are you using though.

Sorry if I’m a little late but where did you get the Wheel I just got a new hamster today he’s a Short Hair Syrian Hamster his names Gus and I would love to get him a similar wheel!

What did you use to prop up water bottle?

Hi! Just a tip :) make sure you put more bedding in his cage so he has enough to burrow. But I love this video !

Such a cute hammy, he’s a lucky boy! I would put the wheel on stilts so he doesn’t get stressed out when stuck underneath!

I love using keytee clean and cozy hamster bedding!! It fluffs out better not waste like carefresh because because how much you have to put in it. I tried my best explaining the differences.

Your hamster is so cute also I don't understand why people would dislike. I love your hamster.

Awwww he’s so cute u love him

How much bedding is in there it looks very less

Hi I know I’m pretty late to this I’m asking where u can get that bin and the size!

i feel so bad for him i am soo happy u got him

hey! so i love that you know what your doing! for any extra info watch Victoria raechel on yt:) i do recommend using a dish for water instead of a bottle because it’s more natural for hamsters:) also setting up the cage before you get one so it cause them less time in the tiny carrier:) this goes to ANYONE reading this not just you lol
