Default Re: First hamster, what should I do?

Getting a new hamster always leaves you with lots of worries. Last november I got a new hamster for the first time in 4 years and I was also worried about everything. My advice is to let him settle in for a week without disturbing him, only to change his water and give him food. He needs to get used to this new space, the sounds in your house and the smells. Just make sure to check up on him while he's awake and talk lots to him to get him used to your voice. My Syrian female barely showed her face the first two weeks. She was very shy and almost always was hiding. And now she's super active! They just need time to get out of their shell.
