Default Re: Best food for Robos (UK)

Dčja vu! That's exactly how i got my Robo Gordon.

Rodipet UK online does the only good Robo food. Unfortunately, there really is nothing in the shops. I have looked everywhere but saying that, my Robo was in Pets@Home for seven months, was fed their own make muesli and seems to have managed fine, well, he had to.
You can feed your hamster what he's used to while you source something more suitable. That's what i did.
He does like the Rodipet food which is made up from small grains etc.

He had the 6.5in Kaytee Silent Spinner which was fine size wise but he kept falling off so i got him a wider wheel which works far better for him. It happens to be a 7in wheel.

A 6in wheel is fine for a Robo but don't get the Savic Rolly because they squeak. A wooden wheel you would need to plastikote first because dwarves pee in their wheels. I prefer a plastic wheel for hygienic reasons even though i like the natural look for the rest of the set up.

Can't wait to see a photo of your Robo. He'll be there and waiting for you.
