I agree a month in a hamster‘a life is a long time and a big change. At least he isn’t all stressed and manic which ours was after being left elsewhere for a 10 day holiday.

He is probably a bit disorientated too. I’d leave him alone for a couple of days and then start getting him out every couple of days - either bathtub time or just time familiarising with you and his environment.

In a couple of weeks he should be more perky.
