Could you show a photo of his set up in the Exo Terra please?

Some of my hamsters freeroam in a hamster proof room under supervision and one of them sometimes bites his cage door when i put him back in. I find that he does that when i'm in the room to get my attention but as soon as i leave the room and turn the light off he stops and starts to hamster about in his cage.

Personally, i wouldn't leave a hamster in a playpen without supervision because they can be little escape artists and do things we don't expect them to do.
Also, i don't think carpet is a suitable base because a hamster could chew it and ingest the fibre which wouldn't be healthy.
