Did you change the food gradually over a period of time or all in one go?
A sudden change isn't good & can cause problems, I don't know the food but it's possible that it doesn't provide all the nutrients your ham needs so that's something to consider, how long ago did you make the change & how different are the old & new foods?
It is possible your ham could be allergic to something in the food but difficult to say for sure.
Do you have a link to the food so we can see what's in it?
Also has anything else changed in the cage or anything that may have caused your ham any stress?
