soft diet for hamster
Jul 31 2010 09:48 PM | Admin in Hamsters Foods
By winternite: It can be a big problem for hamster who's having teeth problem (lose the teeth, grow out of alignment/slanted etc) to eat properly especially on the hard solid hamster mixed.I have this campbell, not sure how but his top teeth just gone, lost...
he cant eat the hamster mixed at all, hence i kind of come out with this 'combination' of wheat, grains, oats and seeds, grind and mixed with water + colostrum and feed it to him.
He does feed on colostrum mixed with water everyday and he can finish 3ml - 4ml each time.
Anyway will share how and what i mixed here and hope it help members who dunno what to feed when your hamster is having teeth problem or even old/sick hamsters too..
What you need:-
- The Mixed
- bran oats - contains B complex vitamins, protein, fat, minerals, and heart healthy soluble fiber.
- flakes quinoa
- flakes spelt
- flakes four grains (rolled oat, barley flake, wheat flake & rye flake)
- millet hulled - excellent source of iron and magnesium. It is also high in calcium, phosphorous, manganese, zinc, and B vitamins, especially niacin, B6 and folic acid.
- buckwheat - a rich source of the amino acid lysine. It contains high levels of protein, calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, B vitamins, and iron.
- bran fibre
- quinoa (optional since already have flakes quinoa) - contains about 17% high-quality protein, very high in iron, and it is an important source of calcium, zinc, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, and copper.
*list can be vary depends on what i can get from the organic shop but will try to get mainly flake for the grains and wheat for easy grinding.



after mixing together..

- bran oats - contains B complex vitamins, protein, fat, minerals, and heart healthy soluble fiber.
- Colostrum - make sure it is lactose free and without other funny ingredients -from iherb

- pill grinder

Steps:-
- grind the mixed till as tiny as possible, no need till powder though

- mixed with colostrum, vit C (optional), water then stir till quite pasty..

- end 'product'...

my campbell does enjoy it, not sure about yours though..

Note: remember to check their teeth very often (at least twice a week) and make sure to bring to a vet to trim it (can ask the vet to teach you then after that can do it yourself) if they are fully on this soft diet.
