Default Re: Crazy hyper dwarf hammy

The climbing frame & lollipop stick things do look a bit dangerous. Hams really don't need things like that tbh, they do better with ground toys like tunnels, tubes, small hideouts & things to explore rather than climb.
You have a good depth there so give her lots more substrate to burrow in right across the whole tank, you may want to make a shelf for the wheel to stand on so it doesn't keep falling over as they tend to do on the substrate.
A nice big house would be good for her too, no base, you could use a cardboard box with the bottom cut out & a hole for the door, maybe put a bendy bridge in front of the door to make it darker inside & give her lots of shredded toilet tissue to start making a good nest.
Try scatter feeding to give her plenty to do.
A few changes like these could make all the difference to how happy she is in her new home.
