Welcome to HC & congrats on getting Pumpkin.
Your photo doesn't seem to be showing up for some reason.This thread will help if you're having problems with that.
How To Embed Photos
If you only just got her for Christmas she will still be settling in but bar chewing is often a sign of boredom so you may need to make some changes to her cage so she has plenty to do, if you could post a photo of your cage set up we may be able to make suggestions to help.
There's also a thread on bar chewing here that might help.
Managing Bar Chewers
Which cage do you have, is it the hamster heaven? Tubes & penthouses like those on the hamster heaven cause a lot of problems especially with new hamsters & it's best to remove the tubes etc & just block them off with the blockers provided then provide a good size house with no base on the substrate for them to sleep in, a shoebox can make a good house if you don't have one yet or a similar size cardboard box with no base & a small door cut into one side.
