STAPLE FOOD FOR HAMSTERS

Locally available food mixes / brands of hamster-safe staple food + their pro's and con's.

1. Super Conditioner - Balanced naman yung mix na 'to so far. It has a wide variety of grains and seeds. Downside lang is the peas and beans which can be difficult fo the hamsters to eat. Oftentimes, iniiwan nila. Average cost: P30/k
2. Super Concentrate - OK rin naman pero mostly wheat grains. Limited choices for hamsters but contains no peas or beans. Same specs as Super Conditioner, but agai, more wheat. Average cost: P25/k
3. Purina Bio 300 / 200 - Best type of feed for all small animals. Balanced content, fortified and in pelleted form. So hindi magiging choosy mga hamsters with this. The only downside is this feed can make your hamsters' poop and pee smell a bit bad due to the vitamins and minerals added to it. Average cost: P27/k
4. Versele-Laga CuniGran - Has a wide-array of contents. Veggies, seeds, nuts, grains, crunchies, and the ever famed pellets. Hamsters typically love this kasi it smells sweet but, wasteful kasi they leave the dark green pellets behind. The pellets are made of alfalfa, hay, and grass, primary target kasi ng CuniGran are Guinea Pigs and Rabbits who consume a lot of greens. Kinakain rin naman ng hamsters but in smaller amounts. This feed is also fortified with basic vitamins and minerals (Vit. A, D, Copper, Ash). Not very cost effective and advisable lang as a mixer in small portions.Average cost: P70/k
5. Vitakraft Menu For Hamsters - The MOST popular brand sa mga prestige hamster food. Basically, well-balanced. Very wide variety ng contents and fortified with vitamins and mineral. Also controls the odor of your hamsters' excretions, hence, less odor. Downside is hindi lahat ng hamsters, gusto 'to. Also, recently, masyadong madami yung alfalfa pellets sa packs nila, but the hamsters seem to eat them though. Downside is may mejo malalaking pieces na bilog, which can be difficult for them to gnaw, hence, iniiwan nalang nila. Good for their teeth rin yung gnawing pieces. Average cost: P200/k
6. Versele-Laga Hamster Crispy - Very rare 'to but mas mura compared sa Vitakraft. Very wide variety, more than Vitakraft actually. Fortified with 9 vitamins and minerals and with odor control plus flora-stimul (good bacteria) for digestion. My hamsters love this pero may mga big pieces na I cut up nalang. Balanced yung mix, alfalfa pellets, nuts, seeds, grains, crunchies, crispies, veggies and fruits. Downside, mejo mahirap hanapin and magastos kasi they tend to hoard this food. Average cost: P150/k
7. Pet-Link / Jolly Hamster - Eto yung "Chin-chan-soo" ang tawag ko. Brands that come from Hong Kong / Singapore. Balanced variety and merong added treats na rin. May gelatin, biscuits, and dried fruits na kasama as treats. Fortified with Vit. A. Good brand naman and smells good too. Hamsters like this but they tend to leave the split-peas. Walang pellets, purely seeds, grain, nuts lang. Downside, sa Cartimar lang available pero worth trying. Average cost: P120/k

IMPORTANT NOTES:

*Hindi maganda ang madaming Sunflower Seeds dahil High Fat Content ito na maaaring mag cause ng Diabetes at Heart Complications

* Hindi maganda ang madaming Millet Seeds dahil high Iodine Content ito na maaaring mag cause ng Kidney Failure

*Once na naglagay ka na ng Calf Manna wag ka na maglalagay ng Bio 800 since pareho sila n protein content .... ma-overdose ng protein ang alaga mo.. pero mas suggested ang Calf Manna since mas mabango yun

* Mas maganda ang Cat Food kesa sa Dog Food kasi mas low fat content yun at mas marami ang grain content so mas high fiber yun which is really good sa metabolism ng hamster
