In a Nutshell

  • The holder does not fit on standard hamster cages
  • Some pets do not care even if you try to placate them
  • Quality is acceptable, but design flaws make it unusable.

Quick Verdict

The salt and mineral lickstone is not well-suited for standard hamster cages. The holder does not fit well, particularly for Kaytee cages, and some pets do not seem to be interested in it. Quality is acceptable but the design needs improvement.

"It does not fit a Kaytee Crittertrail habitat though, the smallest setting is still way too big."

β€” Jamster

"Needs updated"

Bottom Line

One might be better of simply putting the lickstone in the cage without the holder, but even then, some pets still refoused to interact. Only consider this lickstone if your hamsters do not mind what is available and you don't have a Kaytee cage, as the holder will not work on any standard hamster cage.
