Dari is a kind of seed that's often used in bird mixes. It's also known as milo or sorghum and is rich in proteins and oils according to RatRations.

Thanks Cypher! Sweep loves small seeds for some reason, so this will be a nice treat for him!

Maybe he's a dwarf in disguise

My little Ziggy was particularly partial to dari & I'd give him bits of a spray like this, bit like millet but bigger!
There's even a photo of the little man stuffing his face at the link too, I'd forgotten that was there!

I have think Jasper has Dari in his food too. Probably because I basically adjusted Cypher's food recipe by taking out some ingredients, adding some and changing the quantities .

Sweep certainly in dwarf-sized .

Very cute photo Cypher, I am assuming Ziggy was the cute Russian Hamster, that resembles an adorable ball of fluff, and not the bird or the Syrian.
