Instructions
How to Make Your Own Organic Hamster Food
Make a basic seed mix. Mix the sunflower seeds, flax seeds, lentils, and pumpkin seeds together in equal portions.
Feed your hamster about a tablespoon of this organic food once a day. He should eat all or most of it. Remove uneaten food when you feed the hamster the next day.
Supplement your hamster's diet with fresh vegetables and fruit. Give your hamster just a few bites of a fruit or vegetable each day.
Remember that a varied diet is important to your hamster's health. Offer a variety of fresh vegetables, but remember that the majority of the nutrition is going to come from the seed mix.
Provide fresh water to your hamster at all times. Consider adding commercially prepared vitamin drops to the water. These can be purchased at your favorite pet store.
Provide an occasional treat of hard boiled eggs for your hamster. Remember, your hamster is omnivorous, so an occasional protein will be a welcome addition to his diet.
