They are really good for them, coat, skin & joints especially, but high in fat so just a pinch at a time is plenty, mine have it in their mix, plus a few extra because they love them so much ![](images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Thank Cypher, as I didn't know which ones to get just wanted to check that the were ok before giving them to Sherbet, as I only thought they came in one colour and when I had the choice of two I was confused to which ones to buy. When I tried looking them up to see if there was any differences I came across some side effect in humans if too many were eaten so I became a little worried if they were safe or not, especially as they said they were a laxative.

Rupert is less keen, they do get eaten but not with quite so much enthusiasm. I think he finds all small seeds a bit of a faf actually!
Both hams have lovely shiny coats and I think this might be due to the linseeds.

Thank Barley, hopefully Sherbet will get a nice shiny coat. Sherbet enjoys little seeds she always used to hunt to the bottom of her bowl to get to them, just want to add some more variety to her wet food.

I got mine from sainsburys (but on their website they only have golden ones)
