Hamster Gwawing Bars so much that has a BALD PATCH

[MUM23ASD]

Our syrian hamster loves gnawing cage bars (despite loads of wooden alternatives!) However she's gnawed so much that some of her fur has worn away above her nose, and she has a 'hard skin' scab .
Is there anything i can do other than put her in a cage without bars...I am worried she may then still refuse to chew wood- and then her teeth will overgrow...she is 4 months old.

the nut may be green but the shell is yellow/tan

but yes gnawing is fine - hammy is just trying to make you feel guilty grind down teeth

What is it with all this tan and beige nut shells? Since when did we refer to food in the same colour palette as old ladies' Dralon skirts or Hush Puppies?

Walnut shells are brown . I have canvassed public opinion and it was almost unanimous, save for your fellow hammie-friend, Ingles.

Pistachio shells are white or cream. The nuts are green.

We await Macdog's photographic evidence to confirm - show us yer nuts, Macdog

I'll get a reputation for showing me nuts at thos time of the morning!

PISTACHIOS

Lovely

bella-blonde has never seen a rare white pistachio shell
