Your hamster's attempts to escape could be due to boredom, lack of stimulation, or an inadequate cage environment. Ensure her cage is spacious, enriched with toys, tunnels, and activities to keep her engaged. Additionally, check that her cage is secure and comfortable, as she might be seeking more space or a better environment. Regular playtime outside the cage can also help satisfy her curiosity and energy levels.

What is the correct and safest method of picking up a hamster?
There are several methods for picking up a hamster. The two safest methods are: 1) Lower a container into the cage and let the hamster climb into it. This method is safe and keeps the hamster from biting your fingers. 2) Cup your hands together and slide them under the hamster to lift it out of the cage. Or slide one hand under the hamster and cup your other hand over the top of the hamster.
How not to scare your hamster?
When first getting a hamster, you should give it a couple of days to adjust. You can start to get to know them by laying your hand in the cage with a treat on it. Your hamster will probably sniff your hand, and then grab the treat. If your hamster bites your hand, pull your hand out of the cage. Keep trying this for a couple of days and your hamster will begin to feel more comfortable around you!

Can a boy dwarf hamster live in a cage with another dwarf hamster?
Unless the dwarf hamster was in the same litter, I would advise against it. If they are not in the same litter, and you'd like to see if they get along, first put them in a neutral cage. Otherwise the hamster may feel that another male is trying to take over its territory.
