It's the exact same ingredients as the hamster food the sold in the past so the food is hamster food as well. It's high quality food!!

It's good but a US/possibly Canada also exclusive therefore not entirely applicable.However,on its own it isn't suitable as with any pelleted/lab block feed as these don't offer the crucial foraging part of the diet that is very important and must be had within the main diet(not as extras as it isn't as good).

As far as UK options go,there's really one good food and that's Harry Hamster.It's not perfect as it's lacking animal protein(and hamsters are omnivores).Air dried or freeze dried freshwater shrimp would help,or freeze dried/air dried chicken or other safe animal protein options for hamsters who don't like shrimp or mealworms(stick to nondairy as dairy products aren't digested well).

I think there may a bit of confusion over what food you're feeding here, by tiny friends farm I assume you mean Harry Hamster food?

Some hams actually use the food bowl as their hoard, even taking scattered food & putting it back in the bowl! Others take a while to decide on a safe place to hoard it so just let your ham do what he wants to & no need to worry!

I wouldn't feed cheese except as a rare treat, stick to either plain cooked or dried chicken, if he likes them mealworms are good too & you can offer a little plain scrambled egg (nothing added) now & then too for extra protein.
The protein levels in Harry Hamster are good though so even a young ham doesn't need too much more.

The occasional cheese would be the size of your little finger nail. If you did give any.

I didn't notice that u live over the pond, or if you could order Mazuri? Like above post said, it might be a US/ Canada food. I think the internet is so cool like your in the same room almost chatting with people in various countries
