Re: Please help, My Russian dwarf hamster hides in the burrow and never seen.
Hi, congratulations on your new hamster. Everything you states sounds perfectly fine to me. Like Cypher says it is early days yet and I think your hamster just needs more time to get used to all the new smells and sounds..
I wouldn't be destorying his burrows, that would just make him more unsettled. He needs somewhere to feel safe. Think of it like you woke up one morning and someone had changed all of your surroundings, you wouldn't know where you were.
When I get a new hamster I try to leave everything in their cage alone for at least a couple of weeks, longer if they are still very timid.
Try and be patient and just let him do his hamstery things, I am sure you patience will pay off long term.
Cypher has also given you plenty of other advice that may help.
Good luck and enjoy your new hamster.
