Default Teeth chatter/click

Hello! I was just wondering, I've had Hammie for 8 months and he's tame. He seems happy although he's started bar chewing (i know the reason). However, even in his ikd cage he always used to chatter/click his teeth (I'm not sure which) it sounds like if humans keep chewing? It only usually happens when I come and greet him or speak to him it starts, although when he does it I can stroke him and handle him so I dont think he's annoyed?
Any help will be great thanks

Default Re: Teeth chatter/click

I am by no means an expert but I read another thread about this. Many believe it can be the sound of an angry hamster or a content hamster, depending on the situation.

You've had him a while and can hold him so I imagine it might be content but with the bat chewing maybe she is annoyed whilst in the cage? It depends why the bar chewing is happening I suppose.

Others will give a much better reply. I'll see if I can find the other thread for you.

EDIT: here's the link
Teeth Chattering

Sorry I don't know how to make it clickable if it's not already! Most people seem to be going with the irritated theory but there are some other examples too. Hope it helps.
