Two DIY Dwarf Hamster Enclosures | 1000sq inches | The Dropper & The Watch Glass

- I've designed these enclosures specifically to house dwarf hamsters. To recreate these cages for syrians you will need to make a deeper substrate boarder (at least 8") and add more height to accommodate for their taller supplies.

There's a bit of confusion over these cages so just to clarify, these are not replacements for any of our existing cages. We still have and continue to use the Petri Dish, Beaker and Test Tube.
- The Petri Dish is staying empty for the time being since Nitrogen's passing in late November.
- The Beaker was designed exclusively for Syrians and we're hoping it will get a new resident in 2020.
- The Test Tube was redesigned exclusively for mice and will also be getting a new resident in 2020.
Ps. It's okay to keep empty cages. You're not obligated to fill them up and shouldn't get new residents until you feel ready for them. Cages can take breaks too 😉
ErinsAnimals love this ❤️
So many can’t stand the idea of empty spaces and feel the need to fill them rather than let them simply exist. Your hamsters are living like royalty
What paint do you use
Can u do a reacting to ur subscribers cages rats mice and hamster
Just to clarify, do your hamsters have at least 6inches of space to burrow?
@@kirbywithaknife0w045 yes
I love that she builds her cages to properly suit her hamsters needs and spends so much time caring for all her animals
“Stop swiping things off the counter or I’ll swipe you off the counter!” - Erin’s last quote of the year and the decade XD
I found the beginning of the paint scene really relaxing then fell about in giggles when you went in with the hands 😂
Erin has beef with her future click-baity self this is excellent
Me in a pit of unaddressed depression watching Erin legit do god-tier DIY in a dressing gown:
👁️n👁️ -> 👁️u👁️
I don't even like hamsters (I've had them in the past and the experiences haven't been all that pleasant) but I'm loving the lengths you are going to, to ensure that the hamsters you have, get the best out of life. I also love watching you build the enclosures!
Dear Erin, Happy New Year! I became a hamster owner by accident last year. I tried to create a paradise for her thanks to Your Channel. Really envious of the space and your power tools. Also thanks to You I realized that Ella is now 18 months old... (dwarf hammy) Hope we have some quality time left and that she goes peacefully. Thank you very much for everything.
I am so impressed with the extent of the care you take for all your fur babies. Really, Erin you and Victoria Rachel are what hamster owners should strive to be like. You are a roll model for the newer generations. This is evolution at its finest! People now watch your videos and 95% of them will always try to, out do your cages or at the least, do much better for their hamsters. These hamsters will live better because of you. You May even eradicate the use of those small cages that are so wrong and make hamsters miserable. Thank you so much!
This is my first time watching this my name is Erin so I was so confused but then I realised 😅
2:55 I got a splinter watching that
its sanded...
@@William47345 Ik its sanded . It was a joke.
It’s sanded and maybe primed you can get splinters if it’s like that
@@cmccullough8708 u can? Lol
@@cmccullough8708 U could have edited it
You really are so good at these and I love your videos! You inspired me to build a large enclosure for my grandson’s hamster who had been existing in a plastic bin. He is so happy now you can just see it when he moves all over up and down here and there. What a difference for his tiny life. Thank you over and over, please don’t stop inspiring us and educating us, you are a true animal lover and caretaker of all things small. 😊
Ever thought of selling the plans to these cages?? You are amazing!! Wish I had the house space to custom build some cages for my babies!! ❤
“Shane Dawson colourized” haha I love you Erin ❤️✨
Clara Alex where?
Blu 11:00
Dude read it as she said it lmao
Your content and editing is always such high quality!
The fluffy housecoat was actually a great choice for that day.. It protected your midsection from getting poked a billion times from the very nasty ends of the wire mesh.. So I give you great props for thinking outside the box on your protective gear lol As always just amazing watching you build, your so amazing at this.. Thank you for sharing.
This is amazing! At some point could you do a space-themed enclosure?
Hey Ikea you should expand your pet products and hire Erin! Lol.
Wow, very nice!
when ikea comes out with a small animals shop they know who to come to for design and amazingness
Love watching you making things. As always will be great to see the cuties in their new homes.
I've said it before and I'll say it again... You're my favorite youtuber lol. Love everything about this video... especially the painting part... and you sassing Bertie lol. The enclosure looks amazing and as usual is hamster goalz.
These names are golden
I want to buy one of these SO bad! It's so hard to find commercial places that do such great handiwork on enclosures. Finding ones that are accessible, aesthetically pleasing, big and roomy is so difficult and basically impossible. I would follow your directions and make one but being blind and all, probably not the best idea for me to operate any of the tools you use haha!
Oh my god I just found your channel but your cat’s tail is the cutest thing, I love how they curl it over themself XD
i loved that zelda majora´s mask reference. love you too
Am I the only one who thinks that the drawling looks like a fancy oven😂
That’s what I thought too lol
Me too lol 😆
I’m in love with these new cages!!!! I built one based on your test tube (single level) last year. Maybe I’ll do this one next 🥰🥰🥰.
I'm thinking of making The Dropper but with a lid like the one on The Watch Glass. Thank you for putting the measurements on the screen, it's so useful!
All the DIY cages are amazing this one is very stylish.I’m soon going to upgrade my Syrian hamster from his 100x50 cm cage(780 sq inches) to a cage similar to the test tube but with the larger linnmon which is 120x60cm , over 1000sq inches of floorspace.
3:07 exactly me everytime I paint 😂👍🏻
Lol
I'm finally getting a detolf tomorrow!! Thankyou so much for all your helpful videos, my pet care was never bad but it's definitely improved a lot. I have a spider plant addiction now lol
i love that you're experimenting more with your editing!! very funny, loved the finger painting bit XD also hydrogen is precious and we will protect him at all costs
I love watching u create and build your cages. Your critters are pretty lucky to get such nice homes. Keep up the great work! Happy New Year, Erin. 🍻🌷🍄🐹
Hey erin I noticed my cambells had changed colour. I was confused. I now know they r changing into there winter coat but I couldn't find any videos on it. Could u maybe talk about it I think it could be helpful to other people.
I think your Campbell's is actually a Winter White, cause they look very similar, only the winter white, akin to its name, changes its coat in the winter.
How do you get your mesh not to be so rolled up, its so straight!
Also that bottom cage looks so much bigger.
AshFuzzyDucky exactly what I was mesmerized by!! I was like omg it’s so flat and easy to use 😂😂
AshFuzzyDucky you can buy a small roll then lay it out for a day or so and set bricks on it. Or some wire is newer and isn’t as tight and stiff in a rolled way
Idk how you do it! Everything you do it always outstanding! Xx
I could never do something this amazing! I love it! Great job, as always!
Erin be here building enclosures and I feel accomplished when I don't crush my puzzle playground in frustration 😂
I don't have this level of diy skills either so I turned an old cupboard on its back and that's my hampster's mansion now. Only had to make a lid with mesh for it!
@@yasknao5349 wow that's great lol I have to use a ugly store bought cage because I can't build lol
Puzzle playgrounds were invented purely to make us feel like the most useless beings in existence. I hate them so much and have crushed many in frustration 😂
@@SomethingAnimal haha! Got some for simba for Christmas felt like a perant putting toys together
Omg I’ve been waiting for this since you posted the surprise video
What a beautiful cage!!
I love it! That is such an awesome cage!
Best DIY ever.
Favourite clip, 3:07
I always enjoy your diy cage videos Erin! The cages look so cute... 😆 These days I'm trying to build my first diy hamster cage and I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm living in Cyprus too and it's a little hard finding some stuff I need😭
Love love these cages
Omg when you were painting lmao
Always look forward to your videos no matter what kind of videos they are ❤️
Love your cage builds. I have three hamsters and would love to make them something awesome like these!
Love them. I'm hoping to make my own cages one day. When that day happens i will be studying all your diy cage videos 😀❤🐹
Aww so cute! Happy new year to you and all of your fur babies!
It's my birthday tomorrow and all I want is for my pets to be as happy as yours ❤️
You always pick great music for your videos 😄🤗
This is my favourite hamster cage I have ever seen and wish you could buy one
I literally will make this once I move out and will have my own money :) I hate myself for spending so much on my pets but I love the too much :,D
Hahaha! I love your sense of humor 🤣🙃 And great work on the cages btw 🤗
Ehm when are your cage designs going to be available in all petstores? Like We need it NOW 😭❤️
Also fun fact I have watched you for so long that I kind of feel like I know you so I kind of see you as my cool aunt that had hamsters. I hope thats okay with you 😂
don't hamsters need a bare minimum of 6 inches of bedding? or am I just having confusion with how big the bottoms are?
Yeah they do
The bottoms are 6 inches so she’s good
Pretty orange cat. If he gets too close he will get his nose pierced-lol!
Hey mom can we go see Bob Ross?
No, we have Bob Ross at home.
Bob Ross at home- 2:52
I just finished my cage as well! Great video Erin!😘
Edit: I'm going to pick my hamster up tomorrow! Well today, it's already 2.30 am oops.
We love a good sense of humor.
I will try make this cage!
You are very talented in diy!
And here I am not getting a mouse because I can’t be bothered to make a bin cage lid.....
But you animals are all so lucky as you can make the biggest cages!
Hi loved the video!
you are amazing! happy new year
Is anyone gonna call Erin out on her cage hoarding habit she’s developed? Because if my memory serves, she has SEVEN cages now.
Erin I think it’s time for an intervention. XD
ThePurpleHamster 5*
@@CactusBerto it is 7 she has a 3 stacked on each other that her mouse lived, in middle one was empty bottom was for one of her hamsters , and 4 she showed in this vid
Haha! Don't worry I only have 5 and won't be making any more for a very long time! I have these two dwarf cages, my mouse cage (test tube) Syrian cage (beaker) and universal cage (Petri dish)
ErinsAnimals i was kinda counting the Test Tube as 3, but I just realized you’ve connected the three units together for the next resident 😅
Either way, I’m honestly not judging. Lots of available space is great for emergencies. I was just trying to make a light hearted comment. Didn’t mean to offend.
Hi! I live in Russia and I've been watching you for a long time.
Sorry for the mistakes, I'm just learning English. Your channel is very interesting and fun! I love watching your videos . I realy love you and your animal! ❤
Nice enclosure
I really wanted my hamster to have a cage like this. But before I could upgrade it, he passed away. RIP Mochi😪🕊❤
Well done video’s!
Love the video. It gave me an idea to make my own hamster cage, so I'll probably make this! 💙💙
Also, I'll probably make changes in the design, especially when if comes to the dorf.
....ex wife and estranged son 😂😂😂😂 love it
Those little pink and blue accents are adorable!! Love doing gender themed cages for my hammies 😍 also have male and female dogs so I always find myself buying matching baby blue and light pink bandanas lol...
you make the best vids
omg not the flying saucer wheel
Me and my sister had hamster and built our hamsters cages
What kind of paint do you use for the cage I am thinking of making my own but I don’t know what paint to use
always happy to see notification from youtube
Wow!! You're so talented
so cool!!!
Oh my goshh Im so jealous of yr hamsters cage! It looked totally beautiful and neat, wish I could have one of these for my hamster (lilo), but anyway yr video inspire me to make one soon 💞❤️
You are amazing at building cages💙💖
You give off the same vibe as my math teacher and I’m really confused by that
Awesome
Can u do an all my cages video? Xx
Wow , amasing 💖🐹☯️🌈🥰
Thanks girl 💖🌈🌠
Such a creative name for the cage!
Thank!! I feel like I can make my own lol
So cute. I wanna make this only id put mesh wire behind the bottom part so my hammy doesn't escape thru those open holes.
There's glass behind those parts, they're windows. Wire mesh would prevent you from adding any substrate for burrowing which the hamster needs :)
@@SomethingAnimal awe ok good to know. Thanks.
We have the same dressing gown that I also happen to be wearing 😂
That’s so awesome!
very nice video✨
That is amazing that you were able to build that!!!
I love the music and slow mo haha
Hey Erin I wonder where you get your wood cos me And my dad literally cannot find large pieces of wood it be nice I you'd tell me. Or should I just plank it
Probably Home Depot if your in America but idk other countries
@@olivia.scriva5760 thank you but I live in the uk oof
@@pipuin try B&Q or maybe Homebase
I wanna make a cage like that.
Hey quick question, what kind of paint are you using? I've been trying find/figure out what is hamster safe paint for a very long time, so any info you have would be amazing :D
Erin you should make cages and sell them. WOULD PAY $$$$ FOR QUALITY HAM CAGES
Do you replace your cages often because they break or because you just feel like changing it?
I rarely replace my cages, these aren't replacements for anything they're in addition to my other 3 DIY cages :)
Sorry for a nasty comment I left on one of your videos about a year ago. I was really immature.
Omgosh what did u comment
