Kaytee Fiesta Natural Hamster & Gerbil Food

Quality Recommendation : CAUTION

We were disappointed to have to rate the Kaytee Fiesta Natural Hamster & Gerbil Food as cautionary due to it containing 3 added sources of sugar, dextrose, dried cane molasses, and honey. Another caution is it's low protein content at only 13.5%. The variety of whole ingredients is fantastic but your hamster just will not get all the nutrition it needs from this.

Feeding Instructions

When introducing a new food, begin with a mixture of old and new food, gradually increasing the amount of new food over a 7 to 10 day period. This will prevent digestive upset as well as allow your pet to adjust to the new food. Adjust portions for proper weight maintenance and when feeding additional pets. Discard any uneaten food and clean dish before feeding. Hamster or Gerbil: 2 Tablespoons
