If your ham is losing weight I think you should give her as much as she'll eat really.

Is it the Supreme Science Selective you mean? It is suitable for all hamsters but a syrian will need more than a dwarf. Double it at a guess but in your case really, as much as she will eat.

The science selective has good nutritional levels in general but if you're wanting to put weight on her you'd be better focusing on high fat foods. More calories per gram. Nuts are a good one, they have protein too and most hams enjoy them. Pecans are the highest calorie nut and also delicious so try her with those? Cheese also has decent calories and protein.

Is she having problems with her teeth? Is that why you are wanting to make a pellet mash?
