Can hay be used as the sole substrate for Syrian hamsters? I thought I'd buy some to give my Jess something new to dig in and I couldn't think of any reasons why not. I'm asking just in case. Emotion: smile

Her usual substrate is wood chippings.

I wouldn't use it as the sole substrate 'cos it isn't absorbent enough and hay will be damp. It isn't healthy for hamsters. If you want a change, what about shavings combined with hay?
