Default New hamster sleeping?

We bought a lovely little robo this morning, we put her in her tank and have left her today to settle in. She went to sleep about 10am and has been in bed ever since.

What is their sleeping patterns usually like? do they usually get up throughout the day? or could it be because shes in a new place? Ive been waiting for her to get up so i can see her some more but dont want to wake her just so she comes out...

Not had a hamster for nearly 20 years and forgotten what its like...

I would say it is normal, especially for a baby, to sleep a lot at first. It is a big thing moving home and quite stressful so like all babies she needs to find her feet and settle things to her liking. See how she goes after a few days but if you are concerned she may be ill then take her to the vets.
