Lost inerest in his wheel
My syrian male hamster has lost all interest in using his wheel for some reason.
I installed a digital counter earlier this year so I know he is not using it at all. It's a large wheel with fast bearings (modded it) so it works great.
All other activities seem normal. He eats what I put out, uses his sand box, runs around and is active during the night although not quite as much as before. I see him on the camera and he is not overweight or acting different.
I removed the wheel a few days ago and made some changes to his above-ground area. He seemed to take to it immediately.
This weekend I plan to buy a "flying saucer" type of wheel... the one that sits at an angle... to see if that peaks his interest.
Do they just get tired using it after a while? Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated.
Had him since mid February 2022.
Thanks!
