Food & Weight

[a680]

Hi everyone I own a hybrid dwarf and it's the first hamster I've owned that isn't a Syrian. With syrians I've never had weight related issues but I think my dwarf is a little bit chunkier than he should be? It's also hard to tell as I've never owned them. Maybe he's just grown? He was quite small when I got him...
I was wondering what's the ideal or normal weight for a dwarf hybrid and how do you manage to weigh them?
Also out of curiosity how much food do you feed your hybrids and how often? Right now I'm feeding him food Everytime his bowl is empty he doesn't board strangely enough.
