Default Re: Need advice on diet ASAP pls

I'm afraid I don't know much about home-made mixes, as I'm in the UK where we generally have a range of good pre-made mixes. It's also been a long while since I had hybrids myself, but keeping a low-sugar diet is important, so perhaps remove the raisin and carrot, as they're high in sugar. Broccoli and other low-sugar veg should be good, though.

What I would suggest is having a look at the ingredients of the mixes recommended here (such as this hybrid dwarf hamster mix from Rodipet), and look at the threads posted here in the past (like this one) about home made mixes. Be advised that home-made mixes require a lot of research to be done to get the right nutrients, and can be expensive, so even in those threads people say to use pre-made mixes.

One thing I do remember is that fenugreek seeds can be given to hybrids, although probably just as a treat (maybe 5 a day at most?). It has the double benefit of lowering blood sugar levels (apparently! Please do your own research!), while also making your hammy smell like curry. =) Also, I remember linseeds/flaxseeds being recommended for diabetic and diabetic-prone dwarves.
