Default Boredom Breakers NATURALS range of treats

Hi All, Regarding the Naturals range of treats that is available @ P@H and other stores, what is your views on these products? I have bought the crunchy tubers mix which contains jERUSALEM Artichoke, Potato and Carrot - is this o.k to give to hamsters? the analysis is:- protein - 12.4%, oils - 2.5%, fibre 7.8%, ash 7.4%. The range is called Naturals but that is just the name - it does not state that the products are completely natural - so I am a bit concerned as what to make of the products in this range. - any opinons greatly received, thanks.

I have used quite a few of the other products in the range and have found that the hamsters like them but i have not tried the 'crunchy tuber mix'.
Mine have had the dari nibble cobs, mixed dairy drops, rodent marbles, wellness gnaw stone and carrot woodroll with out any problems.
They were not very impressed with the rodent marbles but that is because they are horrifcally spoilt and know if they beg long enough they will get something better.

I would think that if it states on it suitable for hamsters or small rodents it would be fine. I've not tried this particular product but have bought the gnaw stone and it went down really well, Max still gnaws on it and occassionally throws it about his cage
Just watch out as some of their products will state suitable for rabbits/guinea pigs only and not our little hamsters

Jasper really enjoys their treats, although he hasn't tried the specific ones you mentioned. However like someone else said, if they say suitable for hamsters, they should be fine

Mr Darcy has the brick thing (some kind of mineral stone?) he doesnt use it that much but at least it stops him from chewing the hole where the waterbottle used to go!

I have the marbles and the cheesey bites for my boys.
They all love the marbles, although it is quite amusing to watch them eat them-the robos have to literally mount them and roll around with them, and my syrian stuffs loads in his pouches and then cant fit through his tube haha!
They all love the cheesy bites/nibbles whatever they are called, and embarassingly when drunk after a night clubbing, my friends and I dared eachother to try them, and they taste like rainbow drops

The carrot woodroll has been a huge hit with Clover! I don't get to P@H often, but I've seen it online, and I might order a few in to stock up - she doesn't chew on much, so anything to help her gnashers!
