Hi! I’ve literally just only got a Syrian hamster (I’ve called him Biffy), but I just wondered if anyone could answer a few questions? So I’ve just had two gerbils, they lived very old and were very tame and happy, but obviously Syrian hamsters are different in their need etc. I haven’t got a proper wheel for him yet (only the one pets at home recommended, but I think everyone knows that’s not exactly advice to go by lmao) and I was wondering was the ideal sizing would be as I know it needs to be large. I also was wanting to make sure I had all the enrichment needed, as I want to make him as happy as possible- especially before I introduce the playpen to him.
And the last thing (sorry this is a lot), was about climbing the bars in the cage. I know this is a stress response- which is especially why I wanted more enrichment- but I guess I was also wondering how panicked I should be considering he’s only had 2 days in his new environment so far.
THANK YOU, I’m looking forward to spending more time here <3
