Re: Dwarven taming issues
When hamsters are new they will run on their wheel for hours in the evenings for a couple days/nights straight but once they realize that this is their home they will quickly fall into the hiding mode. After that is over they will come out to explore and then you can gently talk to him and offer him treats for awhile (depends on the ham how long this takes).
Remember how small they are and how big we look to them. Plus it they are from farms they already undergone a lot of stress. I think you'll be fine with just observing him and using will power not to go and pick him up. lay you hand flat on the ground of a taming bin in another week. and let him come to you first, if he doesn't come to you, do not chase him around the cage or taming bin, use a cup or tube to transport to a taming bin!

Re: Dwarven taming issues
Although I've had plenty of hamsters before this is all new to me. He's indeed from a petstore. I've only had syrians from respected breeders before whom were all used to humans.
I'm doing my best to make him comfortable. Thanks for the advice.
