Little One Food For Hamsters - 400G

Little One Food For Hamsters is Little One's complete dry mix for hamsters, sold here in two bag sizes.

Key Features

• Complete mix: grains, seeds and dried pieces with a vitamin and mineral premix, so it is the daily food rather than a topping.
• Two bag sizes: 400g and 900g, both the same recipe.
• Scatter feeding: a loose mix rather than a single pellet, so it can be spread for the hamster to hunt out.
• Omnivore diet: hamsters are omnivores and take some animal protein, which is why an insect or mealworm snack suits them.

Feeding A Hamster

• Scatter the measured portion across the bedding instead of filling a bowl. Foraging is most of what a hamster does with its evening.
• Hamsters hoard. Check the hoard every few days and take out anything fresh or damp before it spoils, leaving the dry food where it is.
• A Syrian eats noticeably more than a dwarf, so start from the bag's guide and adjust by the animal in front of you.

Good To Know

• Change food gradually. Mix the new food into the old over about a week so the gut bacteria have time to adjust.
• Keep the bag closed in a cool, dry cupboard. This is dry food and it goes stale quickly in heat and humidity.
• In UAE humidity a hoard of fresh food can go mouldy within a day or two, so the bedding check matters more here than in a cold climate.
• Pick the bag size from the dropdown on this page.
