My hamster Vanilla won’t chew on the bark sticks i got her. I kno she needs to, but she wont chew on anything!! There is a box in her cage and i tried a empty toiletpaper roll, but she didn’t chew on them. I let her run around in my room and she found a Q tip. She chewed on it but i took it because i didnt know if it was ok for her to chew on. Is it ok if i put some in her cage????

Hamsters don’t need to chew on anything other than their food to wear down their teeth. Their teeth grow continually but not as fast as people think. Hamsters are not like rabbits. So don’t worry about it.

Try putting a beef bone or pork bone in her cage to chew on. Never feed chicken , turkey bones though.
