Hi!
My syrian hamster is in an ikea detolf with numerous hides, tunnels, sprays and chew toys. There’s so much in it for her to explore and play with but she recently started chewing at the chicken wire on her lid and climbing on it. i know this is often a sign of stress and them wanting to get out. I’m not sure why she feels this way? I let her out every night into her play pen. Whenever she hears me come near her enclosure she tries to go on the wire and have me pick her up. i’m not sure if it’s because she wants to come out and see me or if she’s seriously stressed. I would really appreciate some tips on how to get her to stop doing this.
Another concern is I just recently adopted a dwarf hamster who is approximately 8 months old. When i first seen his picture he was a normal weight but when i picked him up he was very fat. The foster parent said he’s gained weight. I’ve noticed all he does is eat, he’s eaten all of his flax seeds and is always hiding and eating. I’ve rarely noticed him use his wheel. How could I aid in his weight loss?
Thank you so much, i’m just really concerned about both of them.
