For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Hamsters don't eat food as often as rabbits,guinue pigs,gerbils ect. They will often try to take food away and hide it or cover it up with sawdust. What you have said is all perfectly normal,They may only eat once or twice a week at times. You don't need to keep putting new food in just because it's made a mess,It will know exactly where its food is.
