i just got a hamster and i have a critter trail cage and she sleeps in the tube going up to her wheel about an hour ago she was sleeping and then she slid down the tube and laded on her head she just stayed there and i thought she was dead but then she just got up and and went back up the tube and fell asleep again if she keeps sleeping up there will she keep falling and hurt herself? please help!!
she is a regular hamster and she is perfectly normal shes only fallen once and shes fine i guess she just finds it comfortable and i just got her bout 2 hours ago so shes still not used to her surroundings yet could that have anything to do with it?
 
there's nothing wrong with her she just finds it comftable, just think of it like a human sleeping on the edge of their bed as it helps them to sleep falling off and then not realising until a cupple of minutes later when they wake up and get back on the bed. i would advise you put extra wood shavings (you shouldn't use saw dust anyway) near where she falls. if she seems to be acting strange when shes awake ring the vets for their advise.

look if it's a robo dwarf they like to sleep in wired positions! and maybe she just likes to sleep that way or she has a mental problem and she's going to die!!!!!!!!!! just kidding!!! it's probably just normal!
 
I would be worries that she didn't get up after but she may have just been in shock.... I wouldn't look to far into it personally hamsters sleep where they feel most comfy i have 4 hamsters only 2 use there bed... The others sleep in ether there wheel or tube. If she apears fine, he's breathings normal, furs smooth and silky, eyes and nose clear and is still active outside of that... I bet your just being overly worried, I do it all the time good luck
