Default Can hybrid hamsters have these?




My syrian loves his, so I wondered if my dwarf can have them too. I know they are prone to diabetes and have different needs than Syrians.

What're the ingredients like? I'd assume they're held together with sugar/honey/molasses or something, but I've never actually looked at the ingredients

I'd be careful... When I asked the company they weren't specific on what veg so we avoid them for diabetes prone species most of the time.

I gave my hybrid one without any issues, he wasn't too mad about it though. I think they suit syrians better anyway so he won't miss out by not getting one.

My local pet shop sells toothbrush shaped versions of these which are only little. My hybrid (in fact all my hams) loved it and with the size I wasn't worried about it as a rare treat
