I'm considering whether or not a change of cage may help hammy be more active, apart from the fact he lives constantly in his bed (only coming out to pee, for water and to search for food).
He's essentially always been like this but when he was in his mini duna he'd at least dig around and occasionally come looking for me.
Whenever I can get him out, either by pulling apart his nest go fetch him or catching him out during the day he's more than happy to come out of his cage and then is constantly on the run.
I'm thinking maybe because he's in a vivarium it can be a bit dark since light only comes in from one side, and he did seem to enjoy his mini duna I was thinking of maybe either putting him back in the mini duna (which is a slight downgrade) or trying to find a different cage to see if that helps him at all.
Just seeing if anyone had any opinions or tips?
