She is absolutely gorgeous! And a lucky girl to have such a lovely interesting habitat. It's also the first time I've seen a hamster actually chewing nibble wood! Ours have all ignored any wood chews unless they have food stuck to them. But then only had boys.

Lovely that she sat on your hand. They can still "ping" until fully tame (ie suddenly leap 2 feet in the air and wriggle off you) so best to do it low down and over something where she can have a soft landing. Bathtub taming is popular - so they can't escape or fall and hurt themselves (dry bathtub).
