Food with antiparasitic?
Hi everyone! So I just came across a hamster food that contains a coccidiostat and wanted to know what you guys think about it
It's a very low quality mix so I won't be using it but I've never seen anything like it! I don't think it would be good for our hamsters but I might be wrong haha
Here are the ingredients in case that helps (the link is not in english so that's why I'm translating them instead of linking it): Alfalfa, sunflower bran, oat hull, corn, phosphates, wheat bran, stabilized vitamin C, salt, calcium carbonate, L-lysine, DL-methionine, coccidiostat, vitamins and minerals.

Re: Food with antiparasitic?
Are you sure this is hamster food and not chicken feed?

It probably is but it's sold for hamsters and marketed towards them (the same company also makes rabbit food and has the same ingredients but on different proportions)

Re: Food with antiparasitic?
I’m not sure if it’s the same thing but a lot of rabbit food contains an anti parasitic that is dangerous to hamsters, they certainly don’t need antiparasitics but this isn’t the only food I’ve come across that contains some, sadly just ignnorance.
