Feed free choice to hamsters and gerbils. Feed consumption will be based on species body size and life stage. Use the following examples as guidelines, per animal: Syrian hamsters: Adults generally consume 20 to 25 grams of feed per day (approx. 40 to 50 pellets). Dwarf hamsters: Adults generally consume 5 to 7 grams of feed per day (approx. 9 to 12 pellets). Gerbils: Adults generally consume 10 to 15 grams of feed per day (approx. 20 to 25 pellets). Growing hamsters and gerbils: Offer free choice as sole diet. For adults, supplemental food items (grasses, vegetables, and seeds) may be provided but should not make up more than 20% of the diet. Diets containing higher amounts of seeds and other high calorie treats may predispose animals to obesity and other nutritional health disorders.

Hamster hates it

Britney

My hamster absolutely refuses to eat this which sucks because I purchased 2 bags. I'm sure this is an excellent product though, if you don't have a picky hamster. That being said, my hamster loves the rat version of this product and I highly recommend it as well.

Thank you for reaching out to us, and we’re sorry to hear the transition is difficult. It can sometimes take a little time and patience to transition diets. In fact, in feeding trials, while developing this diet, we did find that hamsters that were previously eating Rat & Mouse did took a little longer to transition to the new diet, but loved it when they made the change! Fortunately, Rat & Mouse is also a wonderful diet for hamsters, so you can use whichever your hamster prefers.

Great food!

I've been using Mazuri Hamster+Gerbil as the base diet for my gerbil colony since 2011. I add in small portions of Mazuri Insectivore, Mazuri Mini Pig Youth, live or dried insects, seeds/grains/sprouts, fresh or dried fruits+veggies, and/or hay throughout the week as well, due to how different age/activity levels can make an individual gerbil need anywhere between 10-18% protein and 3-9% fat. *Almost all* of the gerbils I've purchased + 100% of my homebred ones really enjoy this food (and this brand in general). Using it as their base-diet has given me noticeably better results (larger, healthier, glossier-looking litters from my breeding pairs) than with the other brands of "Hamster + Gerbil" blocks/pellets I've tried in the past. I *highly* recommend Mazuri to other gerbil owners/breeders. :)

Hamster Loves It!

I love Mazuri products, so when I found out they were coming out with a hamster diet, I just had to try it. I'm happy to say my dwarf hamster loved it immediately and has been thriving on the diet since day one. I love the cute little shapes, and knowing she's getting all the nutrition she needs to keep her healthy and happy for years to come.
