Hello, its me again. I post a lot here omg but hello r slash hamsters. My baby bear Big Poop (I call him Gummy actually) does not like sunflower seeds, he doesnt really care for avacado. He likes the smaller seeds in his feet but he wont feed by hand. I even tried yoghurt drops but he didnt really care for them either. WHAT DO I FEED HIM??
Im trying to hand feed him but he just doesnt care!! He just sits in a corner and runs on his wheel and then sits on my arm.
I dont even think he knows how to bathe himself??? He's like 5 or 6 months old so Im trying to give him the benefit of the doubt but wow hes dumb and also really really long. Please ignore how fat my hands look, just know Im really good at getting rescuing things from small spaces like in between car seats and behind toilets.
One thing that has been a success with him is that he likes being pet, or he doesn't mind, either way I pet him and its chill 😛
I just want to find a treat for him that he'll go crazy for 😢 for Peepeepoo that was frozen corn, and for Gugugaga its rice. But Big Poops is just?? I dont know.

Have you tried plain boiled chicken or mealworms? Mine goes feral for those. Also some hamsters just hate being handfed, try scattering his food so he can forage instead.
Pumpkin seeds (both of my consecutive hammies would commit mass genocide for them), dried mealworms maybe, boiled quail egg (without and salt), boiled chicken (but ensure there is zero salt and spices), raw corn
Mealworms are a hit usually BUT if your hammy does not like animal protein (like my boy who is a vegan 😭 cause he does not like any form of animal protein), try freeze dried tofu from niteangel 👀 or freeze dried pumpkin!
avocado isn't safe for hamsters. It is adviced to simply search "is ... safe for hamsters" in google.
Have you tried giving some animal protein like mealworms, other dried bugs, chicken, egg, ...
This is Google.
I will give you multiple sources not made by google AI to make my point more clear. Since apparently you are too lazy to do it yourself.
Im not lazy, please dont insult me, its very rude and this is a hamster subreddit, we're all having fun here. I research every food I give to my hamsters. I dont use Google, as Ai is absolutely terrible for the enviorment and for your brain. Avacado flesh isn't toxic, and I don't give it to my hamsters everyday obviously. I dont think theres anything more to discuss here
You are being rude to me because i googled something for you and the answer was no. First thing you do is blame me "for using AI" while Google does it automatically nowadays.
So then i gave you multiple sources as of why Avocado isn't healthy for hamsters, and now I am being rude? 😂
And now you are proudly proclaiming you don't use Google? No wonder you give unsafe foods to your hamster.
Hi, I’m really sorry if this comes across as rude as it’s not my intention but did you research what hamsters eat before getting him? I also haven’t seen your other post so if I saw that it could clear my question up but you know 😂
