Default Re: Is this food ok?

Mazuri lab blocks are best.Do not buy low quality lab blocks like Kaytee,as these are questionable at best and nowhere near as good as Mazuri.If you're feeding Hazel/Harry Hamster you don't need them,and the protein added would be completely unnecessary therefore there'd be no benefit to feeding them.

Another diet option would be Carefresh hamster food and Higgins Sunburst.This is not good unless you boost the protein since it isn't high enough just using 1 tablespoon of Carefresh and 1/2 tablespoon of Higgins,but once freeze dried chicken or another safe animal protein source(for example mealworms)is added it will be perfectly suitable.The pellets wouldn't need breaking like with Mazuri,and it at least adds a bit of extra variety.Carefresh is also easier to find in stores,whereas Mazuri is incredibly difficult to find and also costs more.
