Default Update on Stella

Stella is bright eyed and full of energy. She is maintaining her weight.

I am unable to exam her teeth because I have problems with my vision. My daughter has great vision but is a child. My husband has great vision/super steady hands but is phobic of teeth. My husband has been the one to exam her teeth because of the above reasons although it is unfortunate. I believe he looked at her teeth the day before yesterday and the top ones are coming in, at the time they seemed in good alignment. Her bottom teeth have begun to grow outward though which is worrying. We have been crushing her food to aid her in eating and supplementing with mueslis and oats. Today I decided to give her a doggy treat along with her modified food to see if she can eat it. If she is able to eat the treat we will give her, her food as usual tomorrow and see how it goes.

I don't know if she will be able to keep the crooked teeth worn down properly or if they will cause problems for her. She does not currently seem to be experiencing problems with the teeth (I hold her while she eats sometimes so I can have a listen and a look). I am not sure what we will do exactly if we will try to trim the bottom teeth and see if they grow back strait (they were strait before the injury). If anyone has trimmed their hamster's teeth what tool did you use? Should we just wait see if she keeps them worn down herself? This month we have run into some major unforeseen expenses.
