hamster wheels 101

Hello hamster court.  This post is about hamster wheels.( you can look at the video above)  Hamsters can run 5-10 miles a night so having a wheel is very important. When choosing a wheel there are two things to look out for. wheel size wheel materiel First I will talk about wheel size. The wheel size depends on your species of hamster,  Chinese and Syrian- 8 inch when they are babies but as they grow you will need a 10-12 inch wheel.   dwarf hamster- 6-8   inch wheel  Wheel size is important as a to small wheel can cause back issues as the back will bend.  Now lets talk about wheel materiel. The wheel materiel you need is a solid running surface and you should avoid any wire or mesh wheels as these can cause bumble foot which is an bacterial infection caused by bacteria getting in a  cut which is not fun for your pet hamster.  So please do your research and not get a small wheel or a wire mesh wheel! goodbye for now🐹
