I did wonder if they could have more than one nest. I’ve a feeling Hammy sleeps in his bendy tube at night then goes to his main bed with his food hoard early morning and stays here for the day as it’s more cosy and dark.

Oh yes, Hammy could well have more than one nest.
Depends on the hamster. Rory has always slept in his house but with Jack we never know where he appears from when called for his porridge.

A friend just jokingly remarked that Jack looks savage and like he's going to go for me in the sputnik photo.
I guess i must have been eating something to make big softie Jack look fierce.

I was also struggling to let him go because Jack made himself at home so quickly. He responded to our voices in a matter of days, started to come to his door for a stroke and loves free roaming.

Someone very lovely and caring with a great habitat wanted to adopt him so i feel guilty for denying Jack this opportunity. I'm also wondering if we are a bit selfish because Jack's little grey face reminds us of Henry.

No way there should be any selfish guilt. Just look at that photo again. Jack is living his opportune moment, it shows! All hunkered in comfy cozy happiness.

This morning my OH was standing by Clive's cage calling "Clive, Clive your porridge is here!" but Jack next door came rushing out of his nest and stood by his porridge bowl spot meerkating. Bit like, "sod him, where's mine?"

Lol! That is so funny and cute.

[Pebbles82]

That's really funny He could probably smell the porridge.

That has made me chuckle! Jack, like Rabbit, sounds very porridge oriented �� x

[Stanza]

Ha, ha, that’s funny, what a great character.

Jack just now, facing a dilemma in the shape of an open cage door and his food bowl.

Not surprisingly, he stopped at the food bowl en route to his door for free roaming time.

I feel I can see the thought process on his face!
