Is your ham a Syrian? If so, I understand that some can be very hard to please space-wise. Does she have enough entertainment and enrichment in her cage and the room you let her free-roam in? My dwarf sometimes chewed bars in her playpen, but then we started giving her a collection of long tubes, and now when she's in the playpen that's all she's bothered about doing. It might just be that your ham is an explorer at heart. I wonder if you could put some hanging toys or similar in the corners of her cage to distract her a bit?
