How Much??

[ad36]

Can I ask how much dry food (Harry Hamster etc) is needed for a dwarf hamster, daily. One of mine is looking a little porky and I think I might be over feeding him.

Just want to tag onto this thread, if anyone is able to answer this question for syrians as well please.

I provide a tablespoon of dried mix to the dwarf hamsters every couple of days, and they never eat it all before the next time I refresh the bowl - I generally have two to a cage, so multiply up accordingly. My Syrians get a tablespoon each night. Both get a range of fresh foods on a daily basis, plus a handful of unshelled nuts, dog biscuits and a cage enrichment item such as a millet spray, or dried sweetcorn.
