Base diet for Campbell's Dwarf

[KennyDolly]

I'm a bit confused... I know many people feed Harry Hamster, but it does average to be quite expensive. But others also feed lab blocks, but, in Mazuri Hamster blocks, they contain Cane Molasses. Is this okay for Dwarves due to them being prone to diabetes? I feel as if they *may* be healthier, and certainly cheaper where I live!

I'm not sure about the molasses, but its not a good idea to feed purely lab blocks as this is not only very boring but can lead to hamsters loosing weight and condition.
You could make up your own mix with the lab blocks to give them variety. But really with harry hamster, you pay for what you get and it is fab compared to other mixes availible.
