Great, thanks Silver I just thought there might be some compound in the vegetable that might not suit hamsters But it's good to know they can eat them

You did mention sprouts in a previous thread but I thought you might be talking about bean sprouts

Thank you

Oh yes! Both the girls, Rosa the syrian and Mi-Lan the chinese, love their greens. Healthy hammies!

But, as they're so good with their veggies, Rosa sometimes gets a tiny bit of biscuit as a treat, Mi-Lan gets a bit of rice cake.

Yeah all mine are healthy and enjoy their veggies and fruits

I've been advised not to give Cookie any more leafy green veggies,as they could cause kidney stones from a calcium build up,she had one of her kidneys out so need to take extra special care of her remaining kidney! She really loved broccoli too bless her.but she loves cauliflower,cucumber and various other things
