I've got two hamsters, both Syrian. When I first got them, I put them into one cage, after a while one became more dominant over living space and eventually they started to fight. I bought an extra cage and seperated them.
Now it's been about a year since I've had them, and for the past few weeks (maybe a month now), they both have picked up with chewing on their cages (one more than the other). Their caged are not the same size, one is larger than the other, upon certain reasons of fear and weight.
The one in the smaller cage (named Pocket), she chews on her cage consintly, I'm scared maybe it's too small for her, but she is a small hamster. I've tried many chew toys, she has a wheel and tubes to play in, her teeth are in fine shape and she gets heapings of food & water. She doesn't get out that often to run in her ball, but I've tried to get her out as much as I can.
Am I missing something? How can I get her to stop?!?
