LAAK Small Animal Pet House Adorable Shell Shape Ceramic Igloos Nest Hideout Critter Bath House Cave Mini Hut Cage for Chinchilla Hamster(Blue)…

Love it because gerbils cannot ruin it by chewing !!

My hamster fits great in there it’s so cute

My husband's and my gerbils, Sam & Dean, approve of this shell for their weekly dust bath. <3 They are males & large/muscular for gerbils, but they both fit in here with extra room for turning around, which was my biggest concern when looking for a dust bath. The cute hamster ceramic dust bath's (with the ears on top) were simply too small for these 2, since they do nearly everything together being bonded brothers. :) The Winchesters (as they are sometimes called when they are moving too fast for me to tell them apart - Sam is slightly lighter colored than Dean) sometimes dig into the shell, but no scratches have formed. They also tend to chew on everything, so we couldn't give them a plastic bath, without them chewing it to bits, as is common with gerbils. Dean, in particular, is a very destructive guy, so he tried to chew on the shell, but quickly learned that it was a terrible chew, yet no marks were left on it from the chewing. The shell's curved design allows for easy dust bathing of hard to reach places (Dean always forgets to wash behind his ears, so this helps him get at least some dust back there). It's beautiful, it's roomy for 2 large gerbils, sturdy, durable, and heavy so it won't tip over by overenthusiastic gerbil play! Thank you for a wonderful gerbil dust bath!P.S. Also this will fit a Syrian Hamster quite well, for those wondering about whether not the largest pet hamster species would enjoy this. <3

The media could not be loaded.  I guess you can say my hamster likes it my hamster is a full grown adult I believe so yeah I recommend for Syrian and dwarfs

I bought this for a summer cage theme thinking it wouldn’t get much use, but my Syrian hamster LOVES this little hide!! It is the first place he goes when he wakes up. The clam is a nice cool place for him to go to beat our summer heat. Since this is his favorite hide, I guess there will be a clam in every cage theme I do:-)The only issue I have with it is the shotty paint job, but that is simply cosmetic and my hamster sure doesn’t care.

The media could not be loaded.  I enjoyed how much they loved this hide. They would both sleep together in it when they were about 6 weeks old. Now that they are older they barely fit but they still try to. I would like to see ones that are a bit larger because I believe they would love them too. They are about three months old in the video.

I was really excited to get this clam shell, but unfortunately it was broken into many pieces upon receipt.I still wanted to see what it should have looked like though, so I patched it up temporarily with some tape and could see that it would have been really nice. Of course, I’ll be throwing this away now haha, but the ceramic quality seemed nice, and the blue color on the inside looked really cute.This shell would have been great for any sized hamster and seemed to be well crafted, but maybe they should put more attention into the actual packing of the product so their hard work won’t go to waste. There was little protection within the box, and it did not say ‘fragile’ or anything on the outside. Luckily I was able to get a refund.

Update ! I still needed a “cute cave” for my new Electric Blue Rams (fish) and so I got the aquarium cleaned out and ready and put this with aquatic plants and it looks great! Hubby even likes it and says it does not look cheesy or out of place he says it looks like a big conch shell beautiful - we love it and it sure beats the rather mundane aquarium “caves” for fish - it’s top notch!I love the size and it is cute - I originally ordered this for my aquarium as a "cave" for future RAM fishes...however it just does not look like a real shell and hence in my white sand aquarium...I think it would look a bit "cheesy" therefore I am going to use it to hold my earrings - I was hoping for a little more authenticity in the look of the shell but that being said...in the pics here it does not look authenticate either....so I cannot blame the product.
