Yeah, sorry about that. Here's a link to a hosted video: nina4

I included clips walking on a hard surface so we can all see her walking. She doesn't appear to limb, and she's been as active as ever all the time. Doesn't show signs of pain. She looks okay to me, what do you guys think?

I know, but I live in a small town and it's hard to find a vet that checks up hamsters

From what I've read, flying saucers are better for hamsters since upright wheels make them curve their spines in a way that isn't natural and that can injure them in the long run. Flying saucers are flatter than wheels.
