Default Wrong food, what can it do?

If a dwarf gets food from the food store, as rodent mixture and chew stone, dont know what it is in english. What can it do with the hamster?

What exactly is it you need to know? Is the hamster ill from eating the wrong food? If he is ill then you need to take him to a vet. If he is not ill then give him the right food from now on. Not sure what you mean by chew stone but maybe you mean these mineral lick stones some people give to hamstrs? If that's the one then take it away vecause they don't need them. Give him a Whimzee dog chew instead.

The reason I ask is because one hamster in a small cage near my home, is out for sale. They do give her rodent food and chew stone. If the food is very bad for her, I might get her.

A hamster living in a small cage is a good reason to go and get her, put her in a good sized cage and find her a good forever home.
Is the food she's eating not meant for hamsters?

She live in a duna fun cage, 55 cm. The food is from a food store, with a rabbit and rodents at tha package. They want 60 dollars for her.

I'd make an offer for the hamster without the cage if you want to get her, have a cage, space and the resources to do so.

The decision is yours. I don't think anybody can advise you.
