What are some fruits and veggies I can feed my dwarf hamsters2007-11-24 22:16:29

I have two female Russian Dwarf Hamsters and I was curious about what kinds of fruits and vegetables I could give them to munch on every so often, like treats, or if there is a specific food that they usually tend to favor ...?

Answers:

no one here is addressing the fact that u have a dwarf hamster. do not feed them fruits. they are prone to diabetes so it's best to not feed them fruit at all. watch out for sugar content in treats too. good veggies are broccoli, zucchini, cauliflower, spinach. all uncooked of course. they all have diferent preferences so u will find what they like best.

no iceberg lettuce, no citrus for any hamsters.

about a 1/2 in piece every other day to start. daily is fine once they get used to it.

probably carrots and apples.

Nothing with sharp edges - such as seeds.

We fed ours a store bought hamster mix. See below.

Carrots is good.

Fruits tend to rot to fast and cause a mess, but slices and then clean up real fast.

lettuce, i don't really know i never had a hamster before. so you should look it up in wikipedia or another reference site. good luck! peace!

apples, dried fruits of most any kind except strawberrys and kiwi, they could have a allergic reaction to thes fruits, green beans, potato's ,cucumbers, most ant veggie except tomato's ( too much acid is not good for them

Below is a link to a forum that tells probably the most specific list your are going to get. Just start scrolling down on it and you will see everything you want to know. Good Luck!

you can give them carrots,beats,celery but not the stems,cooked rice,and radishes you can give the lettuce but it has no nutrition value that's all i can think of so good luck

You can feed your hamsters some carrots, lettuce broccoli,cauliflower, snow peas, but go easy on the lettuce don't feed that to much because it would blote them up.
