I would recommend using food coloring diluted with water. You can use q-tips to apply it :) It works very well and is perfectly safe, I used it to dye wooden dowels when I made my own bendy bridge a few weeks ago! Just be very careful because it will stain if you spill any

It has been a while since you asked this, but for the sake of other hamster owners reading this looking for an answer, I recommend blending Safe fruits and veggies to a juice, dilute with water if needed, and apply it! Erin’s animals has a video on YouTube about it!
