rinn123 it could be a protein problem but it does sound as though with the extras you are giving enough protein, it could be a vitamin problem too, vitamin A is another possible issue but it's guess work really & best to try to give the best diet you can manage.
I see! Could it be that she was previously not allergic to that thing then developed an allergy later on? Is Harry hamster considered as the best mix for Syrians on its own? I can get the supreme science selective hamster blocks. I read about mazuri lab blocks and higgins sunburst but I cant find anyway to get them here, not even online.
