Default a hamster treat i DON'T want to eat!!

hi everyone....

my rat rations order has just arrived!!

most people who read my threads know that I'm quite partial to eating the hamsters treats!!

i got some of the locust pieces and i can honestly say i have never smelt anything so disgusting!!

i can't bring myself at the moment to even open the packet they smell that disgusting!!

do your hams like them and is it just me who thinks they smell AWFUL.

XXXX

EWWWW! lol (Eww at the locust bits not you eating the treats, some treats smell really nice, when we get banana chips for the rats I always eat some haha)
But ewww I don't think I could bring myself to order them. I'm squeamish enough about handling dried mealworms, never mind pieces of a bug thing xD

EWWW well that's one thing that Fudge is never going to try then!
I usually stick with the fruity stuff and seeds cuz I know they won't be gross or smell funny haha
Will you use them or sell them on? xxx

Ours aren't too fussed. The hams I had as a kid ate them, and some of this lot'll have a go, but they're not the most popular treat.
We finished our bag ages ago and it just wasn't replaced.

To be honest I don't think Fudge would like them. She hates mealworms

They sound unpleasant! I'm not sure why I was surprised to hear this as live crickets are surprisingly smelly (I get them for the gecko but the hams have had the odd one if they don't live in barred cages - I hate trying to catch escaped crickets!).
