One thing I would say is that I read in my hamster book that you should not keep a hamster in their ball for longer than 15 minutes at a time. Having never used a ball myself, I leave that to your discretion as you know your hamster best.
Did your hamsters ever go under beds and such that hadn't been cleaned in a while and if so were they fine? I'm worried about that or her trying to chew on something that isn't good for her. And yes I leave her in her ball for about 20 mins each time so she's never too long without food and water!
