what can small hamsters be fed?

Question

????????

Answer 1

well they have special food and treats at walmart and the pet store and don't fed them any human food or chocolate or any veggies or fruits from the store or stand the have pestides they human can handle but a hamster cant just stick with hamster treats and food

Answer 2

What nobody has pointed out which is critical is that some Dwarf Hamster species (namely the Campbells Russian) are known to suffer from Diabetes which can be brought on by too much sugar being in the diet. So giving them feeds high in sugars is not a good idea, this includes store brought treats and things you'd eat yourself!
If you want to give them a more natural treat, why not try giving them a few rolled oats, or a millet spray?

Answer 3

I had a dwarf hamster and his favorite thing was cheerios. He also like waffles with maple syrup. Of course, I fed him hamster food, but I always gave him people food as a special treat. Try giving him a little taste of whatever your eating, you'll be surprised at the things he really likes.

Answer 4

The same thing as any hamster - hamster mix. They need this specially prepared diet to provide for all their nutrient requirements

As for treats - best just to stick with ones specially for hamsters, like hamster yoghurt drops, milk drops and chews or fruitnut sticks. There's plenty of variety in petshops to keep him happy!
