Bedding question

[Veer]

I use kaytee clean and cozy for my russian dwarf hamster. I give her 15-20 bedding and try to press it together as much as possible, so it is stronger for tunnel building.
My hamster doesn't seem to make any tunnels, maybe a small hole now and then.
Am i doing something wrong? Or is kaytee clean&cozy not good for tunneling?

I think Kaytee bedding is brilliant for tunnels. Maybe Hammie does not want take tunnels. Dwarf hamsters often make horizontal type tunnels and perhaps she is doing that.

Ok maybe she isn't a big tunneler.
She also has a multiple chamer house and maybe she doesn't feel the need for tunneling. Or could i mix the kaytee with something like greenmile bedding for better tunneling?

I would leave it just as it is. She may not feel the need to tunnel as she is enjoying using her MCH.

Some hamsters tunnel & burrow more than others, Kaytee is fine for burrowing though so I doubt that is an issue at all.
Some just dig down a bit under the house or under a platform somewhere in the cage rather than really making tunnels so I wouldn’t worry about it, as long as she has the opportunity she will if she wants to.
