My dwarf hamster always sleeps in his tubes.?

I have a winter white hamster, and he always sleeps in his plastic tubes.Should i be worried? Im afraid ther is not enough air flow......Well? Should i be worried? Additional Details?

Answer:

Nothing to worry about!
Unless there is any obvious harm, then there's nothing to worry about.
its nothing to worry about he could be sleeping there cause he has not found another place to sleep yet or he is sleeping there cause he knows you cant get him there so he feels safer there (my ham did that for a while). just make sure there are plenty of places for him to sleep like huts holes and lost of bedding for him to burrow and give him a day or two to find though's places and he wont worry about getting picked up as much (dwarfs just don't like to be picked up). hope this helps
Don't worry. As long as he comes out, you know there must be enough air in his tubes. But seriously don't worry. He probabLy just hasn't found that nesting place yet, he will find one within the next couple weeks. And maybe it's a comforting place for him, a place where he feels safe. But if you want him to come out more often, try giving him some treats. Basically, use treats as a sign that he can feel safe outside the tube too. Hope this helps!
