Can I feed my hamster uncracked nuts?
Hello!
I wasn't sure wether to post this in health care or food forum, but here goes:
My little hamster, Taco, is not gnawing on the wood and hard toys I've got for her, and I'm afraid she might get overgrown teeth.
She gets hard dog biscuits once a week, but I don't know if that is enough.
Then I thought, what if I give her some uncracked nuts, like walnuts or something that she needs to use her teeth to open - assuming she'd be interested in nuts in the first place.
Is this a good idea, or do you think the nutshell will be too hard for her and damage her teeth?
(She is a 9 month old Syrian hamster and she is in good health.)
Thank you for any replies!
