What kind of dried foods can hamsters eat?

Question

see i left my hamser's food at home and now i dont know what to feed to him so please help me

Answer 1

Here is a list of things I feed my hamster

FRUITS: apple, plum, nectarine, peach, grape, banana, blueberry, raspberry, strawberry, ect.

VEGGIES: celery, carrot, lettuce, cooked potato, peas, green beans, tomato, corn, pepper, cucumber, ect. (NO ONION!!)

OTHER: yogurt, cooked white rice, some unsalted scrambled egg.

MEATS (yes meat is okay for hamsters. only a little pinch though. It gives them the protien they don't gett from their seeds.) chicken and fish fillets.

BUGS: canker worms. (Also Protien.)

SEEDS: grain, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, unsalted peanuts, ect. (Just look for hamster mix.)

Amd for a special treat you can give them Flower petals, grass, and dandilion leaves. Hope this helped!

Answer 2

Well if you can't get hamster food you can try these:

Acorns

Bread

Cheese

Crackers

Dandelions

Dog biscuits

Fish(steamed)

Ground beef (rinsed with water so all grease is gone)

Hay

Kale

Marigold flower

Oatmeal

Pretzels

Seed sticks

Stale Bread

Uncooked hot cereals

Uncooked Noodles

Uncooked Rice  

UNsweetened cereals

Yogurt

You can also feed them bird seed if you can't get hamster food. For a list of fruits and veggies you cna go to the source site.  If it is a campbells than i would try and stay away from yogurt and fruits as yogurt and fruits have sugar in them and Campbells are prone to Diabetes.

Hope this helps!

Good Luck!!

Answer 3

Dried fruit and seeds (raw unflavored pumpkin or sunflower). You can feed them fresh fruit too.My hamster loves strawberries, bananas and baby carotts. You can try other veggies. Don't give it romaine, it gives them diarhhea.Or just go to the store and buy more. PLAIN Cheerios are good too, I give them to my dwarf hamster. I wouldn't suggest any other cereal though because I don't know if they're safe. Bird seed too.

Answer 4

well you can feed your hamster sunflower seeds, other seeds and dried fruit, but other non dried foods you can feed him are fruit and vegetables like brocolli, carrot, strawberry, grape, etc.

They should be fed once a day with fresh proprietary pellet hamster food, you can supplement this with seeds, grains, fruit and green vegetables but be careful not to feed more of one type of food.

REMEMBER: It's very trial and error, each hamster will have different tastes they do not all like the same things to eat, but you may find that some of these 'temporary' solutions may be ones that become regulars .
