Any major care differences between male/female Syrians?

It's the chewing that can drive you crazy. Night time is their day really and most active time, so she's bound to make a noise at night and if she knows you're in the room may be trying to get attention So is it just overnight it's an issue?

Asking here since this thread has my ham's history. I haven't seen her for like 2 or 3 weeks. I knew she was alive because she was still eating the stuff i put out but her activity is way down. I haven't woken to her making noise at all. Last night I had enough. I had to find her and clean her burrow since she doesn't pee anywhere else. She was teeth chattering and mad as I slowly cleaned around the time I am used to her waking up. Instead of a sick hammy, she looks perfectly fine. Should I be concerned about her at all? Or is this a sign that she's finally calmed down or settled in? Could also be an old age thing - she'd be about a year and 4 months old.

Update! She came out last night around 7pm, acting totally normal, hungry and friendly. It's the first time she's done that in weeks.

So sorry your earlier post got missed . Glad she is fine . It may be hear making her be more reclusive - conserving energy perhaps.
