Even though hamsters eyes are large, they have bad sight and see shapes, not really clear objects. They are red blind and can see yellows and greens best, which might explain their favorite tubes, hideouts, or foods. They use their super noses and ears to make up for their lack of sight, and use their long whiskers lick a bling person might use a walking stick. That is why they are constantly sniffing and moving their noses about!
