Default Best place for shelled nuts?

Hi all!

I use shelled nuts as one of many ways to help keep Gordy and Derrick's nails as trim as possible (robo nails are crazy!), and of course as a bit of fun for them to break into. At the moment we've just got monkey nuts, but I'd like to give them a bit of variety in their treats

I can't seem to find shelled brazil nuts anywhere?
And... are pistachios OK for them as the occasional treat? I've heard mixed feedback.

What are the best shelled nuts you give your hammies, and where's the best place you've found to buy shelled nuts in the UK?

Thanks!

It can be hard to find nuts in the shell all year round as most places seem to think they're just for Christmas! but ratrations always has them.
Mine have pistachios, they love them but I only ever give mine tiny pieces of nut except for monkey nuts & the very occasional walnut in the shell so I'm not sure about giving pistachios in the shell.
Ratrations do dry roast monkey nuts which are lower in fat & tend to have much harder shells so the hams have to work harder for their tasty treats!
