It depends. He likes to run on his hamster wheel and is super active, not only that but his heated bed has him all moist and humid after a nap. A few factors like that will dictate how much litter dust gets stuck to him. We just do the smell test and a visual check every day and if he’s particularly nasty we give him a bath. Not too often though as it dries out his skin a bit. I’d say once a month on average and it takes about 10 minutes.
No lotion needed as far as we can tell. He definitely doesn’t like baths and will try to jump out if you don’t block him but generally he just stands in the tub and complains a bit. The only thing he truly hates is when we have to clean his booty hole. Lol
Bingo. This guy starts to smell a bit like a scrote if he goes without a bath for too long.
How often do you have to bathe them?

Does he mind baths and do you have to lotion him with special lotion?
