Where does your hamster roll around? In the tube. Is it like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liUn96jtQEg

Does he/she do it deliberately? The hamster in the video looked like he was forced in that tube! I use the ancol tubes and tend to put something heavy against the tube so that it doesn't move when my hammy is in there.

There is something else that Syrian's do when they mark their space, they get on their sides and sometimes back and roll. They do this to the things they like, sometimes in their substrate:) I'm not sure if that's what you're referring to.

Not like the slinky, that looked so cruel :'( he might be marking his territory, but it stopped when I cleaned him out

Yeah, the slinky looked cruel. Poor hammy.

Your Syrian must like his tube a lot if he's marking it:D
