Hamster bored with toys?

[randomthing42]

My hamster was finally fully tamed after like 2months at half-term and since then she and I have had a lot of fun exploring the different sofas and beds in the house. The slight problem is no matter how long she is outside the cage, she always wants to explore more and will bar-chew to try and get my attention for a few mins but when we ignore her she walks off and seems fairly bored. Her cage is 80x50 and I change her toys every week between the ones we have (see-saw, climbing house thing, tunnel, small kong and different shaped toilet tubes) but she still seems just not particularly interested, any suggestions on what toys we could get that will stimulate her and help her not want to be exploring outside the cage all the time. She has a sand bath, a large level and a 12" wheel (shes a big girl xD). I am going to get a playpen soon but I probably need more toys first.

I recommend moving the bendy bridge off of the hidey holey toy and removing the hidey toy because the holes are too small for adilt Syrians sadly

Here’s a (very long) list of some of my favourite hamster toys, they should all be suitable for Syrians and almost of them are natural so they’re safe to chew and will go with your cage’s theme.

Thanks for your reply, last night she chewed the bars intensely quite a bit which she hasn't really done before and I poked her chew toy through the bars which she shredded but went to sleep in the spare bedroom so I could not be disturbed. I looked at the other thread and they said whimzees worked well so im going to pets at home today or tomorrow and will get that and some of the toys you suggested.
I'm am also going to give her food when we have finished playing with her and olive oil the bars as she tends be occupied with her food for a while when we give it to her so that should hopefully calm her down.

I found weaving cardboard through the bars entertained my bar chewer Kashi (rip) for 10 mins or so. I kept putting new cardboard in and hid treats in an egg box and she gradually gave up the habit.
