In the wild all of the hamster species eat a variety of seeds, plants and insects. We can give our pet hamsters all of the nutrients they need by giving them a varied and balanced diet.

The main part of your hamster's diet should consist of a good quality hamster mix. As with us, foods containing lots of artificial colours and additives won't do your hamster any good. I have seen hamster mixes containing bright purple biscuits and bright yellow popcorn. This sort of hamster mix is best avoided. Your hamster can be fed a wide variety of fruit and vegetables. Give your hamster a small piece of fruit or vegetable daily. Don't give your hamster citrus fruits or onions as these foods are very acidic and will give your pet an upset stomach. Instead, have a look at the following list and see how much variety you can treat your hamster to. All of the fruit and vegetables offered to your hamster should be well washed to remove any residue of dirt or pesticides. Drain off surplus water and present the goodies to your pet.

  • Grapes
  • Melon
  • Kale
  • Cucumber
  • Sweetcorn/corn on the cob
  • Peas
  • Carrots
  • Apple
  • Banana
  • Celery
  • Grass
  • Broccoli
  • Cauliflower and Cauliflower greens
  • Dandelion leaves
  • Beansprouts

In the wild your hamster would also eat insects. You can provide the protein that your hamster needs by giving your pet any of the following foods.

  • Dry cat food (poultry kitten kibble is ideal)
  • Cooked chicken or turkey
  • Crickets or mealworms (live, canned or freeze-dried)
  • Scrambled or boiled egg

Is junk food better than homemade food yes because in homemade food you no whats going in to your food but in junk food such as kfc you dont no what is in it so eat homemade food you no wats in it?

Because junk food has lots of fats, which brings up more weight. Homemade is better because whoever is cooking for you knows what's right. Junk food does have oils and fats. And when you make food at home you prevent from using oils and fats. So, homemade food has a greater chance of being healthier.
