seems good so far, but dont build the climbing frame to high were he can touch the top. good luck
and saw dust wont be good as that dust can get into hamsters eyes and can be alergic to it. its better to use aspen or something like that.

Your picture doesn't seem to be working. He posted no URL in the original post. I checked. Hey folks, you have to post a URL link to an image on a host site for photos to show up.

Well, pine is better than cedar. I have known for some time aspen is generally not available in the U.K., and I always thought that odd. I would think BULK purchases of bedding by mail would be cheaper than in a store. You could ask the store to get really big packages for you; maybe that is cheaper. I have my local store get 25 pound bags of food - which is cheaper for me than buying lots of smaller bags.. Photos. Find a host site such as Photobucket or Picturetrail. There are others; just Search for "photo hosting sites" or such. Start an account there, upload photos to it, get the URL link. When you have the URL link bracket it this way: [*img]your URL link[*/img] - of course remove the asterisks before posting.

UK pine is suposed to be ALLOT better the North American pine, less oils or something. Most people in the UK I have talked to use Pine without any problems.

NEVER knew that about U.K. pine. I would have asumed the stuff is imported in from somewhere.

I can't remember what the kind of tree we get is called, there are so many kinds. We go to an X-mas Tree farm and cut our own, it's fun.
