1) Whimzees Dog Chew Treat
Lots of hamsters are picky chewers and won't chew on the chews you give them,have you ever used Dog treats for them? I am not saying all dog treats are 100% safe,but this one is one you can definitely give to your hamsters. The dental dog chew treats by Whimzees is something my hamsters really enjoy. I have tried the Whimzees alligator and the toothbrush. The alligator is harder than the toothbrush,I can't break it using all my strength. I definitely recommend this to picky hamsters,and be sure to take it out of the cage if you feel the hamster is eating this over their food
On the right,you can see that my hamster carries the Whimzees toothbrush around,most of the time to the corner. When I first got the alligator,my hamster finished it within 2 weeks. These can be purchased at Polypet at Clementi if you live in the west or PetMart in S'goon Nth if you live in the East.
Rating 9/10 (Could be slightly cheaper)
2) Ecotrition Snak Shak Log
Another hamster chew I recommend is the Ecotrition
Snak Shak log. This chew isn't just a chew,its a 3 in 1.
A chew,treat and a tunnel.It is made of pine wood
shavings,alfafa and honey. People will say pine wood
shavings are bad,but they are only so if you use them
as bedding,so no harm in this product. It may be a treat
but it isn't all that unhealthy in my opinion.It has alfalfa,
something that most hamsters hate. My hamster will
always leave the alfalfa pellets for last,but alfalfa has fiber,
which is important for hamsters.So I think that this Treat & chew isn't all that bad,and my hamster likes this. It is also thick and hard so it is good for trimming of teeth. I bought mine from Little Flower Pet Shop in S'goon Nth.
Rating 8/10 (If it happens to get dirty,you can never clean it off)
3) Gerber Baby food (Liquid)
How is this a chew? You're probably wondering. Well it's not......
However,hamster's might not like the chews you buy for them,this is a solution. You can rub this on their chews to make them chew on it. Rub it very well so that it's not liquid,if it is not rubbed well enough,the hamster will just lick it off,so rub it really well that it's fully on the chew without liquid. Baby food is safe for the hamster,but pay attention the the ingredients. Don't get one that has citrus like orange or lemon. The Gerber brand baby food is safe other than the citrus one. You can also try the Gerber Graduates puffs. This baby food can also be used as a occasional treat,my hamster likes to lick it :)P
