He gets bits of our nibbles too like a tiny bit of cheese or oatcake, cracker and the odd strand of spaghetti or boiled chicken. He has a variety of millet sprays in his cage and a nibble stick but not the sugary type.

I guess he is a bit of a foodie and a huge hoarder. He surrounds himself with food and likes nothing more than chilling in his nest while nibbling from his hoard....but....he is not overweight! So don't worry and post us a photo of your hamster instead.
OK thank you, and as requested, a photo of the boy :)
