How to make a homemade mix for hybrid dwarfies?

CookieBlossomBella · 05-30-2018, 05:34 AM

Hey guys, Im back after not being very active!
So Flan is stupidly fussy. Maduros eats her harry hamster mix and loves it but i have tried so many different mixes with Flan but she is not having any of it! I was just wondering if anybody could give me a good recipe for a mix for hybridised dwarfies or they have good tips for preventing situations like Flan's.

What mixes have you tried her with? Have you tried the bunny dream expert from zooplus?

Mixing up your own food is really quite an involved process as you need to make sure you are balancing all the nutritional values. There is a thread on the forum which would be worth reading if you were looking to make your own. I've linked it for you.

Has anyone ever made their own hamster food?

If you haven't already I would try the mix BP suggested, it has plenty of variety so your ham should eat it.
As BP said making your own mix takes a lot of work, it's worth it if you really want to try but not necessarily the solution to a picky eater, better to persevere with a good commercial mix first feeding once every few days & not offering extras or changing the food until at least most of it has been eaten.
