Default Dietry Discrepancies. Please Advise?

Hello Hamster lovers, Quick question: I like to make my Russian Dwarf hammy's diet rounded and interesting, but am very cautious at the mo as I don't want to upset her tummy or poison her. I am also brand new to hamster keeping andrely loads on any info I can find.

The first link below states to steer clear of aubergine whilst the wiki link says aubergine/eggplant is fine? Clarification please?

Anyone Please?? Tonight I have seedless grapes for her but would love clarification re the aubergine please.

For a newbie, conflicting info can be scary.

The seedless grapes are fine.
Personally I have never fed the aubergine so could not be sure on that but I do know the list was prepared by moderator Babyboos who is a very experienced breeder. Perhaps best to wait on that just in case as there are lots of safe foods to choose from

Thank you Souffle. Suzie ignored her grapes but is addicted to broccoli now which she was not before. Picky little critter . I'll eat them!

We find they like the grapes halved first so that they smell the juice then they eat them LOL.
