Frequently Asked Questions

How many hides should my hamster have?

We recommend providing at least three hides within your hamster's enclosure. Having multiple hides allows your hamster to move around the enclosure while always having access to a secure place to rest or retreat.

Positioning hides in different areas of the enclosure can help create a more enriching environment and allows your hamster to choose where they feel most comfortable.

What size hide should I choose?

Choose a hide that allows your hamster to comfortably enter, turn around and rest inside. Syrian hamsters generally benefit from larger hides, while dwarf hamsters may prefer smaller, more enclosed spaces. Individual preferences can vary, so please refer to the dimensions provided on each product listing.

Syrian hamsters need an opening of at least 7cm.

Dwarf hamsters need an opening of at least 5cm.

Are these hides suitable for Syrian hamsters?

Many RoseLark hides are available in multiple sizes. All single-size hides are designed to be suitable for Syrian hamsters. For hides available in multiple sizes, we recommend choosing a Large size or above, with an opening of at least 7cm.

Please refer to the dimensions provided on each product listing to ensure the hide is suitable for your individual hamster.

Are these hides suitable for Dwarf hamsters?

Yes. RoseLark hides are suitable for dwarf hamster species, including Roborovski, Campbell's, Winter White, (Hybrid Russian Dwarf) and Chinese hamsters. Please refer to the dimensions provided on each product listing to select the most appropriate size for your hamster.

Minimum opening size should be 5cm for dwarf species, but we recommend 6cm for larger dwarf hamsters

Can the hides be placed directly on bedding?

Yes. Most RoseLark hides are designed to be placed directly on top of bedding, allowing your pet to interact naturally with their enclosure. Please check the product description for details on whether a particular hide has an open or closed base.

Where should a hamster hide be placed in the enclosure?


Providing more than one hide within the enclosure allows a hamster to retreat and feel secure wherever they are exploring. Placing hides in different areas of the enclosure helps ensure your hamster always has access to a sheltered resting space.

A common setup is to place an open-based hide within a sand bath on top of a stable platform, creating a secure grooming and resting area. It can also be helpful to position another hide toward the front of the enclosure, giving shy hamsters a nearby place to retreat if they feel uncertain during activity or interaction.
