Thumbs up Juliette is a major hoarder

Hi everyone!

I have had my hamster for about 3 months now. Up until the last 3 weeks, she never had any food stores. Now, she is hoarding copious amounts of food and it is getting larger and larger every week. I know it is normal behavior, but she is hoarding so much food it seems unreal. I have started feeding her every other day, but it is not making a difference if anything it is getting worse. Should I just let her be?

All hamsters like to hoard, some may keep it to the same place or have a few areas in their cage. They do hoard more in the colder weather.

Just be sure to add more bedding/substrate now the weather's changing.
