Default Taming a nervous hamster - advice needed

Hi everyone,

I could with some advice on taming my new hamster. She's a 7/8 week old winter white that I got from a breeder 1.5 weeks ago. So far, I've just been letting her settle in. When she's out and about I offer her a treat which sometimes she'll take.

The problem I have is that she's very rarely out of her house when I'm in the room and because of this I'm not making any progress with taming. She clearly comes out when I'm not there as there's plenty of poop around and her food and treats are disappearing. I obviously don't want to invade her little nest, but I'm worried I'll never manage to tame her.

Does anyone have any advice? Do you think she just needs a bit more time to settle in?

Thanks so much
