hamster poo

Sent to Pet Experts June 28 11:58 AM

Dear Hamster Expert,
My hamster has been eating her own poop from her cage cornner. Sometimes, she even uses her bathroom cornner to hide treats. Is this healthy and normal? I am a little worried that she might get sick. I clean her cage every Sunday with pine wood shavings, she has an organic tube to chew on and play in, and she runs on her wheel all night. Fresh water is always avible.
Thank you, Rosie
