Default Re: Underweight syrian hamster ?

Ok - sounds like the Versele Laga is the best option then - they do better with a muesli than a pellet food - but you could add a few pellets to the muesli to make sure she's getting all the nutrients and protein. I personally don't use dog biscuits. Some think they are ok and some are very anti! They do need chews to keep their teeth trim - hence a hard muesli mix helps. Can you get the whimzee toothbrush dog chews? They are just vegetable based and hamsters seem to love them and chew them a lot. I stick little seeds in the bristles as well so it tempts them to chew. Chewing wood is good for their teeth too - mine have never been interested in any wood chews but will happily chew the wood legs off the house!
