ok now i have a recipe . i made it up and wrote it on a forum so il be back later to tell it to you . please note that i will not be testing it till friday so i advise that you dont use it until i say that it worked out and is safe .

carrot baby food that's safe for hamsters (i think i herd some1 say no low sugar ? is it true ? ) mixed with crushed nuts ( not too many though because there fattening to hamsters ) placed in a silicone cupcake mold or a small bowl shaped object into the fridge with low fat yogurt or Greek yogurt is it safe ? and bits of strawberry on top . And if you try the recipe given it is only for syrian hamsters because of sweetness which could cause diabetes if eaten by a dwarf hamster! also any recommendations for the fruit on top ? not any citrus fruits or fruits that could give my hamster diarrhea or gastrointestinal distress from too much fruit and wateryness ?

princess hamster you should only use mild cheese 4 the cookin 4 lucy thing and most the things on it are fattening so should not be fed often and never use white bread to feed to your hamsters . cucumber should only be fed occasionally and not much of it should be given . seeds should not be fed a lot and if you do feed it to your hamster give only a bit .

you dont need to stop feeding it 2 coco just be careful what you put in and give mostly hamster dried assorted mix (12 g a day ) and dont give the treats very often as most are fattening . they should also be given a mix of fruit and veg but not 2 much and no summer fruits if you have a dwarf hamster !

Hi! Here is a recipe that I found that are made for hamsters! Enjoy!

Birthday Hammie Cake

Instructions:

Cut out three small hamster-size pieces of bread, then flatten them. Spread honey (not a glob) on top of the first piece . Place a small amount of fruit on it (check the pinned safe foods list). Place the second piece of bread on top. Spread some honey on it like before (again, not a glob of it) and place the veggies on it. Place the third piece of bread on top and spread with honey (not too much!). This time, sprinkle crushed nuts on top. I recommend feeding one small piece of the 'cake' at a time.

Hamster Birthday/Holiday Cake

Ingredients:

1 slice of wheat bread
1/4 cup of mixed fruits(bananas, strawberries, apples)
3 baby carrots
4 chopped up milk bone dog treats

Cut the crust off the wheat bread.

Put the mixed fruit, carrots, in a blender for about 10 seconds.

Spread the blended fruit/carrots on bread.

Sprinkle chopped dog treats on top.

Let sit for 2 hours or until topping gel (carrots/fruit) cakes the top of the bread.

Cut into 6 small pieces.

Feed to your hamster, and your hamster's hamster friends at his/her next holiday/birthday party!

CAUTION!
Be careful not to feed too much of these to your hamster, as it can get ill, and if given too much, it will store it in it's cheek pouch leaving it to harden on the delicate skin inside the cheek pouch. DO NOT GIVE TOO OFTEN!

cookin 4 lucy recipes aint that safe 4 hamsters

In moderation, yes, they are. Definitely not something you'd give every day, but once a week as a treat is fine.

Mimette, I want your recipe

I love the cookin 4 lucy site! The dishes are so cute.

[Carrot the hamster]

I have created a recipe for Roborovski hamsters. It contains lots of healthy noms for them! It also is very easy to make. Here is a list of what you need: A small amount of lettuce, carrots,unsalted peanuts, blueberries, or anything else that they can eat that you want to add. Here is how you make it:

1. Chop up everything into small pieces.

2. Mix everything into a bowl.

3. Serve the salad to your hamster.

Make sure you remove any uneaten salad after an hour.

Enjoy and have fun!

I haven't had time to read all of the answers to this but I've got a suggestion that my hammies really love!

Take a CLEAN popsicle stick and spread a very thin layer of peanut butter onto it. Take your hamsters food and drizzle it over it so your hamsters food sticks to the peanutbutter covered posicle stick. Then freeze the treat in the freezer. When you want to give it to your hamster take it out and wait 10-15 minutes for the treat to thaw out a bit and then give it to your hamster.

I've got plenty of peanut butter and hamster food; I think I'll try that one popsicle stick treat once I get some popsicle sticks. (Serenity will love it cause I know she loves Peanut Butter).

Last night I made a "hamster salad" that seemed like a pretty good success. (I would've called it a "smashing" success, except for the fact that everyone ate all of it except Hammy...which is odd...and I'm a little worried because lately his appetite seems not what it should be).

Anyway, the ingredients are: romaine lettuce (and I recommend the "greenest" lettuce available); tiny carrot strips; tiny strips of red cabbage; some tiny broccoli florets, and a small slice of sweet cherry tomato.

The salad was about 60% romaine lettuce, and 40% everything else (maybe about 10% per other ingredient).

I cut the individual ingredients up into small pieces with kitchen scissors as I added them to a mixing bowl, and, as for the cherry tomato: on a separate small plate, I first cut it into slices, and then quarters, and then finer and finer, and of course it basically turns to mush during this process, but I made sure that all of it (i.e., the little seeds, the juice and the flesh) went into the salad. (I think the tomato added an essential touch to it).

Then, when all the ingredients were in the bowl, I chopped it all up even finer still, again just using the kitchen scissors.

Lastly, a few drops of extra virgin olive oil...wetting it just to the point where it would stick together...but don't overdo it and make it sloppy.

(I was going to try adding a pinch of parmesan cheese, but I didn't have any. I don't know if that would've helped or not, but as it turned out they generally seemed to love it - inexplicably except for Hammy).
