We’re at the stage of taming where I’m able to lead my little man out of his hidey-hole with a treat. I’ve seen videos of people training rats by putting a blob of yoghurt (I think) on their finger which the rat can lick off as a reward. I believe dairy is a no-no for hammies so I’m wondering if there’s a good alternative to the seeds I’m luring him with - something he can lick off my finger without filling his belly (or his cheeks)?
