Hamster Central - View Single Post - Conjunctivitis still getting worse after two sets of antibiotics

I gave him three peas, a piece of sweetcorn and a floret of broccoli yesterday and he looked very pleased about that.

Roc doesn't seem to like very sugary fruits - he looks sad and sighs huge sighs afterwards if I give him anything like a sweet fruit. He's very much a vegetable guy though. He also likes nuts, after initially being unfussed about them.

I think it's kind of funny because our last hamster, Daisy, was stupendously active and ate almost only peanuts, but she got through massive numbers of them. I used to give her big handfuls of peanuts with the shells on, and she sat for ages shelling them noisily and putting them in her store room. She had no time whatsoever for vegetables.

Oddly Daisy was very slim and only about 145g, while Roc is a big solid chap and weighs 245g.
