If you mean be sick, it wasn't. Hamsters have got two pouches, one either side of their face, which it uses to collect food. When the pouches are full it will go to a corner, mainly where the bedding area is and empty out its pouches.
It is perfectly normal for a hamster to pack its cheeks. They have pouches built into the for the purpose of packing them. It is how they transport things. They are kind of like their own "personal suitcases." If you try removing things from these pouches yourself, you can actually hurt it. They can shove amazingly large things in those little pouches, and it will make their cheeks look HUGE. It is okay. Check out the video below, and you can see a hamster in action stuffing whole baby carrots into her pouches. You can tell that she knows what she is doing, and it isn't hurting her at all.
a golden hamster nests in its bedding and its bedding is like hay
it has 2 pouches on either side of its mouth and the hamster will store it in there and then find somewhere quiet and empty the pouches and eat the food.
If your hamster bedding looks brown it needs to be changed. Urine turns the bedding brown. It should be changed weekly.
She may be trying to hibernate. Hamsters are not allowed to hibernate. They are nocturnal creatures, so they love the dark. But she might just be storing food, to eat later my hamster does that, but puts it in her bedding! aww :D
Syrian Hamsters have pouches, it does not matter how long their fur is.
You should put your hamster in a safe place, or have someone else hold it for you. If you have a hamster ball, let your hamster exercise in that while cleaning out it's bedding.
Dwarf hamsters - each other and on suitable hamster bedding. Syrian - on their own and on suitable hamster bedding.
