Hi Chesterpal, our male Syrian is a very similar weight, so pleased to hear this sounds ok as I sometimes think he looks big, but he doesn’t feel podgy when I’m stroking him. My memory is terrible so I’ll have to read over this thread again but think someone said they don’t tend to over eat?
Where does your hamster normally go to the toilet? I’ve a sand box but Hams prefers to keep it clean and just scuffles around in it, even when I’ve tried putting soiled bits of bedding in it to encourage him, he kicks them out so I gave up. His toilet annoyingly is in an extendable tube I have in his cage. I was concerned with over doing the ‘spot cleaning’ on this but after a few grumpy faces for a few weeks he’s completely got used to me wiping the tube out frequently, so it works. Hope your hamster settles quickly back into his re styled home.
