hamster broken bones care

* Take away any exercise activities from his cage.
* Keep away any extra multi-levels so that his cage is all on one level and try to find a balance between minimising the size of the cage and not making him too bored.
* Make sure he has extra bedding to make him comfortable when sleeping.
* Try adding more calcium to his eats by adding pieces of milk soaked bread and/or pieces of high calcium dog biscuits to his food. This will help his bones heal quicker due to the extra calcium in his diet.

Healthy hamsters are lively and always run around. Look at their eyes and nose and see if they're not running. The eyes should be bright and expressive while their whiskers and nose should be twitching most of the time. Besides, their fur should be dry and well-groomed. Check very well the hamster's body and see to it that the hamster is not ill so you don't have to spend money for the treatment and regret buying the hamster if it dies.
