Shunamite guidelines

[Engel]

Hi all. Since owning rats Ive been introduced to a different diet which can be used for many different species but thought I'd see what others think before putting it into practice.

I feed my rats using the shunamite guidelines.
This diet includes:

- 50% commercial mix.
I mix 2 different foods for this.

-25% processed grains.
Low sugar cereal, rice and pasta is used.

-10% protein
Mealworms and shrimp

-10% herbs and veg
Mixed herbs, dried veggies (beetroot and parsnip at the moment but aiming to increase variety).

Nori (seaweed that you wrap sushi in)

-5% seeds and nuts
Use seeds that aren't found in the base mix like chia, sesame, hemp seeds, pine nuts and Brazil nuts for example.

Fresh veggies served daily.

Now, the rats have wet meals throughout the week to boost protein too as they're still young but when they're adults this'll drop to one meal a week. With the hamsters im thinking of doing a small wet meal once a week which will consist of wet cat food (fish based) with spirulina, some coconut oil and multivitamin and mineral powder mixed in to ensure they're getting everything they need.

Technically aren't hamsters omnivores? Eating grains, seeds, vegetation and meat/bugs. So in theory it should work? What are everyone's thoughts?
