Hamster Diets

For their diet, hamsters can eat a mix of pellets, seed mixes, fresh foods, and treats. The majority of a pet hamster's food should be made up of a good quality, store-bought food designed specifically for hamsters.

Pelleted hamster foods offer a completely balanced diet in every bite, and they are often recommended for this reason. Pelleted diets can come in many shapes but usually look like small biscuits, cookies, or cereal.

When picking a seed-based diet, we recommend you find one that contains grains and dried vegetables along with some seeds. Some loose seed mixed foods also contain pellets as part of their mix.

When feeding a loose seed mix, make sure your hamster empties the food bowl before adding more, not allowing your hamster to eat only its favourite things.

You can feed your hamster a variety of human foods as long as you limit the treats to a small part of your hamster's diet. Skip the junk food and stick to healthy things like whole grains, fresh vegetables, and fruit.

Since dwarf hamsters are somewhat prone to diabetes it is also especially prudent to avoid sugar in their diet, so avoid fruits altogether as treats for them. Some safe foods you can offer to your hamster are hay, cooked brown rice, crickets, small pieces of cooked chicken, nuts, unsalted peanuts, hard-boiled eggs, lentils, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, mealworms, cooked whole wheat pasta, squash, sweet potatoes, spinach, peas, carrots, broccoli and cauliflower.

Hamsters also usually love peanut butter, but it must be fed carefully (as with any other sticky food) since it can get stuck in their cheek pouches and cause severe problems.
