Re: New Syrian hamster help
Congrats on Harley! She does sound beautiful and I hope to see some pictures. She may be quite laid back, as none of the pet shop hams I have had have fallen asleep in their carriers on the way home - on the contrary, most went wild trying to dig out. However, my breeder ham slept all the way home in his carrier when we went to collect him.
As for the sleeping in her cage, I have found that all of the hamsters I have ever brought home during the day will go quickly to sleep as they are still babies and 3pm is like 3am for them! So, this is totally normal and she will be out at night.
As Cypher says, give her some time to herself. I'm sure her personality will become clear as you get to know her.
