...clean my hamster cage? hi i need to ask two questions i have 2 dawrf hamsters and they keep on fighting and they are girl dawrf hamsters what should i do also is their a easy way to cean my hamster cage?
~Usually,Dwarf Hamster breeds go well with each other as cage mates.However,in cases like yours,they may fight.It may be because of only 3 things I can think of:
•They simply do not go well with each other.Some hamsters,much like people,do not like the comfort of another cage mate.
•Lack of space.Perhaps your hamsters just don't have much space in their cages.Try buying a larger,more comfortable cage and you probably will have no problem when it comes to rivalry.They need adequate space and territory in the cage.
•Lack of food.Are you sure you're giving them exact and enough amount of food?Every time you see their bowl empty,you should replace it with new food.
~To clean their cage,simply remove the bedding,rinse with warm soapy water.
Scrub the whole cage with a brush and then wash off the soap with ordinary lukewarm water.Do this with gloves if your hamster is sick.Before placing the new bedding,make sure the cage is dry as not not attract maggots which prefer dark and moist places.Maggots are deadly for your hamsters.You may also want to clean even the cgae toys and materials as to ensure cleanliness.Cleaning the cage as well as they toys and other stuff could be done at the same time as to ease work.
P.S:just separate the two and do the things I said(buy a larger cage and organize the food schedule.And the introduce them again.If they fight,then they must be separated forever.
