Unfortunately that food isnt the best, they contain a lot of dried fruit, pasta and for some reason pretzels? The protein is also very low and needs supplementing (mealworms, shrimp,
). As far as I know the best complete mix in the US is Harry/Hazel hamster but for a dearf you’d want to feed a variety of extra seeds, insects, and herbs.

A lot of people feed Higgins Sunburst mixed with Maxuri lab blocks as well.

There are smaller pieces in there and no added sugar/dried fruit which is best avoided. None of my dwarfs have enjoyed Harry/hazel hamster as a very large portion of it has always been pellets unfortunately.

Thanks guys, I'll be changing her diet then~! Hopefully this will help her to eat more ^^! For the mealworms how many would you recommend a day?
