A bundle of hamster safe substrates. You can choose from a combination of:
100g of Feeding hay
500g of Hamster safe sand
500g / 1 Litre of Hamster safe soil
300g Fine beech chips
200g Aspen
100g Coco chips

Please make sure you use the custom fields to choose your substrates. If you don't do this I will try my best to reach out to you, but it will delay your order.

Are these substrates safe for my hamster?

Hay, Soil, Beech chips, and Aspen have all been bagged and frozen at a temperature of -20°c for 48+ hours so they're safe to use right out of the bag with no extra freezing.
The sand and coco chips have been baked in the oven at a high temperature for over 1.5 hours and then bagged immediately on cooling, so they are also safe to use from the bag with no extra baking or freezing needed.

Why should I buy a multipack of substrates for my hamster?

This is a great bundle of substrates that you can use to see what your hamster likes and doesn't like. I started selling these because when I wanted to explore different substrates and textures with Flamey there were no multi-packs, you had to buy a lot of everything. So with this bundle I hope you can pick it up and test these things out with your own hamster before you decide to buy in bulk!

What can I use these hamster safe substrates for?

The hay is pure feeding hay that contains a small amount of hamster safe meadow flowers, it's great for stuffing toys and creating forage areas. The sand is hamster safe and is used for grooming, most hamsters like to roll around in it, some use it as a toilet! The soil is great for promoting digging and playing, it's also really cooling in the summer. The beech chips are fine grade and they're great for promoting digging and foraging. The aspen is soft and good for promoting digging and foraging. Most hamster professionals recommend not using aspen as the main bedding.

I will also include PDF guides for any substrates you buy so that you get the most out of them.

Are these substrates hamster safe?

Yes. I only sell substrates that I use myself with Flamey. The hay, aspen, beech chips, soil and coco chips have all been frozen at -20 for 48+ hours. The sand is hand baked and sieved in small batches at a temperature of 140 for 1.5+ hours.

I have used all of these substrates with Flamey for months and he has a selection of them in his cage all the time. He loves exploring different textures and we've found over time, that he likes to use each one in a specific way. We hope your hamster enjoys their substrates too!

Such good value

Always buy my substrates from here. My little Robo loves the soil and sand. The sand is great quality so soft and she loves it. The soil and coco chips make a lovely little area for digging that my hamster loves to dig in and look for worms

Thank you so much, Kirsty I absolutely love the picture of Robo darting around. Sounds like she’s having the best little adventures!

I was so shocked to see the size of the substrates you receive for £7.50 it’s incredible, was able to fill my hamsters trays whilst also still having left overs to refill. Ive only had coco fibre and sand before but he wasnt much interested in the fibre but since i added a section with the beech chips my hamster was digging for gold when he came up for a sniff about.

This review made me grin, Thea! 😄💜 I can just picture your little one “digging for gold” in the beech chips. What a lovely visual! So happy the mix worked out perfectly.

Lovely!

These substrates have really added to the enrichment of my hamster’s enclosure. It makes me so happy to see Strawberry use them! It’s so nice to have them pre baked and ready straight out of the bag - so convenient!

Thank you Anastasia ! I’m so happy Strawberry is enjoying the new substrates. Also, thank you for uploading so many pictures of Strawberry and the setup. Looks cozy!!
