Am I feeding my baby Syrians too much?
We have seven three-ish week old black and white Syrian babies. We have eight hamsters total including mom.
I cut up some carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini squash, a teeny bit of pumpkin, celery, a few tiny pieces of strawberries and put them in a container in the fridge. Every night, I shake it up and take a rounded palmful. It looks to be about the size of a tablespoon give or take, I've never really measured.
It all gets put in the cage, or given to them when they are put in the little playpen. Some do end up getting more than others. I haven't really noticed a whole lot of a difference in them. The still drink a lot, they play and run around and appear to be eating. Am I feeding them too much? Should I cut back on the vegetables, if so, how much?
