Ants in brand new bag absolutely disgusting

SophieG13

I bought this a few weeks ago for my hamster she had been eating her last bag of it for months and ran out so went out and got a new bag the next day. I noticed the seeds were all towards the top probably due to getting moved while being shipped to the store so I just put it in a big mixing bowl ( I had just cleaned out minutes before) and mixed it together but while I was mixing it I saw little ants on the side of the bowl and thought mabey one came in on my shoe or something so I kept mixing and the started crawling out of the food. It was disgusting I took it all outside disenfected everything and still grossed out. I took it back the next day they let me exchange it for a different brand but still pretty disappointed

No, I do not recommend this product.

I bought this a month and 5 days ago (out of the returnable period!) My hamster became sick and started to lose fur... that's when I noticed bugs were crawling around her cage! And sure enough the seed mix too! Not sure if I just got a bad bag but I'm really hesitant now on re-ordering.

No, I do not recommend this product.

My hamsters love this. It's a great quality I have had my last 4 hamsters on this blend and all have made it to 2 years to 2.5 years old! It's definitely worth the price.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Questions

1 - 10 of 10 Questions
Sort by: Newest Answers

is this good for syrian hamsters ?

  1. Yes, this is one of the better seed mixes for hamsters, but you should also add in a good, balanced block food like Mazuri Rat and Mouse too.



How much should you feed Syrian hamsters and how often should you feed them?

  1. You should probably give them 1 to 2 tablespoons every other day depending on your hammie. I have a Syrian and a winter white, and they are very happy with it.



Is this a good brand of food for mice? I know that it says it is good for mice but you can’t always trust pet stores. Thanks!

  1. I have five female mice and they love this food, been feeding it to them about three years now, hope this helps, you might also give them oxbow rat food, these two foods gives them everything to grow and be healthy and strong.



Is this a good "Gerbil" type of food?

  1. I would say yes....since Hamsters and Gerbils are in the same rodent family...I have a hammy. But would be fine giving it to a gerbil as well



How many cups of food are in this bag total?

  1. My guess would be 6 to 8



How much coconut is in there

  1. It's the 18th ingredient (listed by weight), so not much but enough to add to the variety of this mix. They are small, shaved pieces.



Can I feed this to my dwarf hamster?

  1. Yes you can. Just watch the amount of sugar in your hamsters diet, as they are prone to diabetes. Keep fresh fruit minimal if you aren't using a food formulated for dwarf hamster sugar levels



Is this food good for picky eaters? My hamster is really picky about her food and I haven't found a good mix that she really likes. Also, what type of seeds are in it? I would love to know to see if she would like this blend.

  1. A way you can get your hamster to not be picky is only feed it 2 tablespoons every other day.



Is "Higgins Sunburst Gourmet Food Mix for Hamsters & Gerbils" sold in stores?

  1. I've seen it when shopping at petco



Is this product sold in stores?

  1. yes! This is the only food I buy and has always been in stock in petCo stores.
