how do you make rock candy?
i see ur a first timer ] get a cage that has a plastic bottom hamsters do that all the time its in there blood to burrow so you should do some more research about hamster habits they naturaly live under ground and she is tearing it up because she want to make a nest
old fashioned hard rock candy INGREDIENTS 1 cup confectioners' sugar 3 3/4 cups white sugar 1 1/2 cups light corn syrup 1 cup water 2 teaspoons cinnamon oil 1 teaspoon red food coloring DIRECTIONS Roll the edges of two 16 inch square pieces of heavy duty aluminum foilSprinkle the foil very generously with confectioners' sugarIn a large heavy saucepan, combine the white sugar, corn syrup, and waterHeat over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until sugar dissolvesStop stirring, and boil until a candy thermometer reads 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C)Remove from heatStir in the cinnamon oil and food coloringPour onto the prepared foil, and allow to cool and hardenCrack into pieces, and store in an airtight container.
forget the foil they are not allowed that just bedding will do him nicely kk he might be bored provide plenty of fun things to do for hamsters
take the foil out immediatlyThis will be so bad for the little guy if he ingests it by accidentUse paper underneath insteadHe will be curious as to what it is and that is why he is tearing it upHamsters are curious about everything, and will chew on everythingRip up lots of plain toilet tissue round the cage, he will love this and make a snug bed from it, and if its ingested its harmless, but please, get rid of the foil!!!
forget the aluminum foil, just put the bedding down that you can get from the pet storeif he keeps digging in that, my hamster always liked having cotton do dig around in.
