Re: Hamster Treats.

With the big mac and the battered sausage they only tried a little bit, like crumb sized and i dont give it em every week. they had them only once, just to try. sorry that i didnt make myself clear before, i forget that people dont know what i mean when i write things down quickly. I know not to give them large amounts, just like we shouldnt eat large amounts but trying a little bit doesnt hurt them, same with people.

And theres nothing wrong with the roast dinner a bit of cooked meat and some fresh veggies. i just used to give it them on a sunday while i was doing mine. again im sorry for not making myself clear earlier. I didnt mean that i gave them an actual plate full of meat, mash, cooked veg, yorkshire puddings, gravy etc. im not actually that stupid believe it or not.

Same with any type of crackers (prawn crackers, jacobs etc) and the pancakes a little tiny bit every now and then is not any worse then giving them their normal hamster treats. just the same as me having the odd chocolate bar doesnt hurt. Obviously you dont give it them daily but a small amount of one of these every couple of months doesnt hurt, iv been keeping rodents for years and never had any problems. iv never had one die particually young apart from one bunnie and that was a completly different matter.

Im sorry for going on but i just wanted to clear up wat i said before as i know i didnt explain things probery. i would never tell anyone to feed their hammies loads of people food, treats are supposed to be treats (ie not given often) and thats what meant when i said they like those foods. i dont want any of you thinking im a bad pet owner because im not i just dont believe the odd, tiny bit of human food hurts. sorry again for not clarifying this first time round

Re: Hamster Treats.

Please can someone tell me how big these treats of fresh food can be for Syrians e.g. apple or carrot. Everyone says small pieces, but how small? Thanks.
