Default Re: Should I be concerned about my hamster's weight

hi everyone thanks for your help. When I got her she was on a brand of muesli called furry friends and I started mixing it with pets at home nuggets. It seems like what's she's got stored is the same amount as what I give her apart from one part of the mix which must be her favourite so I think I'll try leaving that out and saving it as a treat so she isn't being selective. I use the same scales to weigh her every time and I do a basic health check every week but I'll check her properly for lumps and check her teeth when I get home later. It's a good suggestion about the size of the cage I hadn't thought of that. She came Ina tiny cage that just had a wheel and nothing else, now she has two larger cages connected by a tube with plenty of levels and enrichment. she drinks 30-50ml water everyday
