Congrats, Margot looks adorable

Good advice from the others on hybrid diet, if you stick to a good dwarf mix like burgess it doesn't need to be difficult at all, if she's a picky eater you may need a bit of tough love so don't keep giving more food until she's eaten at least most of the mix she has. Burgess does have grass pellets which I've never known a ham eat but other than that she should eat all of it.

I wouldn't use a ball with a dwarf ham, most don't like them & they can be easily injured in them too.
They do much better in a playpen with lots of toys to explore, the metal playpens you can buy for hamsters are safe for hybrids, they can't escape like other species.
