What Type of Food is Considered to be Hamster Food?

There are so many people who are first-time hamster owners who really have no idea about that you really can feed a hamster; and what is considered hamster food and what you need to absolutely not even think about feeding your hamster.

This is only a partial list of the foods that fall under the list of hamster food that can be fed to both the Syrian and the dwarf breeds of hamsters without giving them things that are too harsh or just not that good for them. You van feed both breeds of hamster just about any type of green leafy vegetable that you would eat yourself as well as green , orange, yellow and red peppers chestnuts and dandelion leaves and flowers. All of these are completely safe for both the Syrian and dwarf breeds as they normally eat a good bit of greens out on the wild. You can also feed your hamster cooked, unseasoned beef, turkey or chicken.

Things like apples, grapes, cherries, melons, mangoes, peaches, pears and other sweet sugary fruits and some vegetables (sweet potatoes, squash, corn, peas and carrots) should only be fed to the Syrian breed of hamster. The reason for this is that the dwarf breeds are genetically prone to diabetes, so those sweet sugary foods need to be off the hamster food list for dwarf hamsters.

This last section is going to cover those things that you absolutely cannot feed to either breed of hamster because they are dangerous to the hamsters in one way or another. You are not going to be doing your hamster any favors if you have any of these foods on your hamster food list under acceptable foods: chocolate, candy and other junk foods, raw potatoes, tomato leaves, buttercup flowers, pork, lunch meats fruit pits or seeds, citrus fruits, almonds, peanut butter, almost all spices and seasonings and jellies/jams. All of these are dangerous to a hamster in one way or another. Chocolate, spices and almonds are toxic to a hamster, as are both onions and garlic and buttercup flowers. Almost everything else that is on the above list are foods that will cause you hamster to be sick and possibly kill the poor little creature in the process because it is either too sweet, too small or just plain toxic.
