Hamster snacks?

Question

i heard it is good to give a hamster cheerios, but what kind? is it bad to give them cheerios with suger on them?

Answer 1

yes it is good to give them regular cheerios...not any other kind...so dont give them sugar coated ones or honeynut cheerios

Answer 2

NO cheerios with sugar for your hamsters. Never give your hamster snacks that might have added salt or sugar in them. You can give them basic Cheerios or multigrain Cheerios but none of the flavoured ones. You can also give your hamster plain corn flakes.

However remember, these are only snacks and only little quantities should be given to your hamsters. The major part of your hamster diet should come from a good brand commercial feed specially designed for hamsters. This should account for 80% of your hamster's diet since it has the correct amount of nutrition and vitamins for your little hammie's health.
