Socks' new house has a roof hole too. He disappears into it and in a second comes out the front door. He loves it!

I diced a Dark Cherry and she devoured it.
Have to still battle against the moths. Two triangle traps. One sticky Ribbon. These catch lots of moths and larvae.

She looks like she has grown 
Oh that sounds a pain if you're still getting the moths. I think you did a full cage clean didn't you? If so that means the moths had laid eggs that have hatched out. An adult female can lay up to 200 eggs a day. When I had my first outbreak and was overrun, I used different types of moth traps. I had the pantry moth sticky ones (which didn't seem to work) but also tried the carpet moth traps (sticky triangles) and they worked a lot better as long as you had them at floor level. This might sound strange but it could be an idea to hoover the walls and wash the curtains. I found they were laying eggs on the walls and in folds of curtains. I also hoovered the floor every day - it helps get rid of eggs so less hatch out. And also empty or chuck the hoover bag outside afterwards - to keep them out of the house. Sticky fly papers catch the odd one but don't get rid of the source or most of them.
Vinegar is supposed to kill the eggs as well (which can't be seen with the naked eye) so I also sprayed the walls with dilute white vinegar last time.

Dandelions from the neighbor lawn, washed and chopped. This morning I found that she had gone through them like a goat

Tsang Shu is quietly gnawing on the bottom of her fence. This keeps her teeth from growing. Rabbits, Beavers, Squirrels and Rodents all have super specialized teeth.

The black images here are slate stones. Inside the dish are pieces of delicious Dandelion Leaves and clippings of Saw Grass. 倉鼠 adores greenery.

Early, at 7:41pm, my hamster came to investigate the tiny bits of peach in the dish to the left. Water is to the right. She is nibbling in this still shot from a video.

I moved the wheel from perpendicular to the Wall, to parallel but opposite sides from the Wall. Variety for her and more easily seen by me.

We had diced potatoes and a Bratwurst for dinner. I fetched small pieces of potato from my plate. My hamster nibbles.
