hamster bathing in a sandbox When it comes to grooming, a sandbox is recommended. The animals love to roll in the sand and clean their coats. The sand has an abrasive and degreasing effect. In the summer, it even provides a little cooling thanks to its degreasing properties.

Attention! Never use shell sand in the sandbox. This sand is too sharp for the hamster's skin.

Do Hamsters & Dwarf Hamsters Need a Sand Bath?

In the wild, animals use sand as needed. The Syrian hamster lives mainly in sandy desert areas and therefore uses sand all year round for its night display. The Roborovski Dwarf hamster also needs sand because it naturally comes from desert areas. The other dwarf hamster species such as the Russian Dwarf hamster, the Campbell's Dwarf hamster and the Chinese Dwarf hamster, like to use a sand bath when they need it.

Why use Chinchilla sand?

We call it Chinchilla sand, but the sand is actually suitable for all small rodents that like to bathe. Chinchilla sand is a clay-based sand type, which means that this sand is most suitable for the natural habitat of the animals. The sand has a drying effect and that is also very important to be able to degrease the coat. Animals that do not naturally have a greasy coat will bathe less often in the sand.

In the wild, hamsters can only make tunnels in soils that contain clay, even if only a little. In this way, tunnels remain standing. The dried-out surface clay soils are used by the animals as a sand bath.

Why do Hamsters and Dwarf Hamsters bathe in sand?

Hamsters and Dwarf hamsters bathe in sand in the wild to keep their fur clean and free of grease, but also to get rid of parasites, for example. Sand is also good for itching, because it has an abrasive effect. In addition, sand ensures that the fur is degreased and therefore becomes more separated, which in turn ensures good ventilation and optimum humidity between the fur. The latter also prevents mold formation. Animals that really need a sand bath, such as Gerbils, for example, can develop skin fungus if there is no sand bath.
