Are Seeds Healthy for Hamsters & Dwarf Hamsters?

Hamsters are real seed eaters! In the wild, a hamster's diet consists of more than 90% seeds. The animals collect the seeds and take them to their burrow where they store the seeds for the winter. Hamsters and Dwarf hamsters have a high metabolism, which means they need energy-rich food. You will therefore find a large variety of seeds with us, with our preference for seeds that have not yet been harvested. The unharvested seeds are still hidden in the plant, so the animals have to harvest these seeds themselves. The latter ensures that the hamsters can REALLY show their natural behavior. With their small hands they grab the plants and expertly remove the seeds from the shell to then quickly eat them or hoard them.

It is not only fun for the animals to harvest their own food, but also for us owners it is enjoyable to see the animals busy like this. This is pure natural behavior and it gives the animals a lot of joy.

How do I offer herbs in a natural way?

Let your hamster choose by offering herbs loose or by processing them in a foraging corner . Change regularly for extra scent and taste experience. Think of herbs such as plantain, camomile or dandelion.
