Default Help! Very scared new Chinese Dwarf Hamster

Hello,
I got a lovely new Chinese Dwarf Hamster 2 days ago called Mulan.
I've left her alone but every time I come into the room she either freezes or runs back into her house.

The house they gave us was massive for her and hard to clean out so today I moved her to a large plastic tub and changed over her house to one like she was in at the pet shop, putting some of her old bedding in it.

I tried to handle her but she is so scared of me I just worry I'm going to freak her out. I didn't go too near to her but I put a treat on my palm and placed it in the tub with her - she wouldn't go anywhere near me.

She just looks so scared all the time and since I put her back in her cage she's hiding in a tube and sleeping there instead of the new bed - i'm really worried she'll get too cold, it is the middle of the Winter here in England.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
