Sometimes this really happen that when the environment change (a new cage), some "relationship" and the previously achieved "balance" in the "society" need to be re-established to suit with the changes in environmental factors. The previously defined "territory" is disrupted and needs to be re-established again, and the dominance-submissive relationship, or even the hierarchical relationship needs to regained its stability. This abrupt environmental change leads to fights or war among the hamsters.
Your hamster may have injured through bite wounds that exposed the skin (even the underlying subcutaneous and muscles sometimes), it's kind a traumatic injury. I'm sure you will find there are many vet clinics around your area, check the list of veterinary clinics in the forum in another section. |
