Hi. They are very easy to take care of x. You have just been very unlucky with these bugs. I think the only thing to do now is see a vet and discuss it. And have the hamster checked. I looked at the video and can’t see a bald spot or hear any squeaking - it looks like he’s eating something and that is making a noise - him eating - something crunchy?

Some hamsters are more vocal than others. It’s lovely that he is more tame and recognising you. It’s true hamsters often don’t like being still and may not sit on you for long. A Syrian hamster is usually better as a first hamster. They are bigger and easier to hold and handle. And some can be quite cuddly - although their personalities vary.
