Why choose Little One Dwarf Hamster Food?

Dwarf hamsters enjoy eating small seeds and naturally spend a lot of time searching, collecting, and hoarding. A fine, varied mix suits this well. Little One Dwarf Hamster Food contains, among other things, white millet, yellow millet, red millet, Japanese millet, white sorghum, buckwheat, canary seed, meadow grass seeds, safflower seed, pea flakes, barley flakes, sunflower seeds, milk thistle seeds, dried courgette, niger seed, perilla, sesame seed, and hemp seed.

The mix has been deliberately formulated without added sweet ingredients. This is pleasant for dwarf hamsters, as it keeps the daily base calm and manageable. Additionally, you can offer snacks, vegetables, and animal protein in targeted and small quantities.

The fine particle size is also important. Dwarf hamsters have small cheek pouches and small paws. A mix with fine, non-sharp particles is therefore more practical than a coarse food with large or sharp pieces. Your dwarf hamster can collect, carry, and sort the food better.

For which animals is this food suitable?

• Dwarf hamster: suitable as a complete daily diet for dwarf hamsters, such as Russian dwarf hamsters, Roborovski dwarf hamsters, Campbell's dwarf hamsters, and Chinese dwarf hamsters.

This food has been developed for dwarf hamsters. For Syrian hamsters, mice, gerbils, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, and degus, you should preferably choose a food specifically formulated for those species.

Why does it contain no animal protein?
