For our Getzoo dwarf hamster food, we have oriented ourselves to nature's extensive menu. Only seeds, plant parts and insects that occur in the natural habitat or resemble the plant life in the steppes were selected. For this reason, protein from the water, for example, was deliberately avoided, but the needs of domesticated dwarf hamsters were also taken into account. In this way, we can guarantee a balanced and healthy diet for our protégés.

With nature as a role model
Most dwarf hamster species live in the barren and dry steppe and desert areas of Asia. The landscapes are characterized by sandy soils, grasses, wild herbs, bushes and only a few trees.

The Seeds
In nature, dwarf hamsters feed mainly on seeds and only a few other plant parts and insects. The basis of the dwarf hamster diet is floury grass seeds, which we cover extensively in the feed with ryegrass, red fescue, ostrich grass, meadow timothy grass, meadow panicle and meadow fescue. Numerous millet varieties, which belong to the sweet grasses and have a long history in Asia, form the basis of the Getzoo dwarf hamster food together with the grasses. But also important oily seeds should not be missing from the menu in a balanced ratio, such as thistle or nettle seeds.

Parts
In addition to the numerous seeds, dwarf hamsters are also looking for a few plant parts as a change. They prefer the shoots of fresh grasses and wild herbs, as well as tasty delicate flowers such as cornflowers, which also thrive on dry soils such as steppes.

Protein
For dwarf hamsters, a balanced protein balance in the diet is essential to have enough energy. Especially in rearing, they need a rich supply: In nature, they eat numerous insects and maggots, as well as intruders. In the Getzoo dwarf hamster food, we cover the protein requirement with dried mealworms and fly maggots.

Diabetes
Unfortunately, some dwarf hamster species and hybrids (mixed species) are prone to diabetes. Therefore, unnecessary additional carbohydrates were dispensed with in the Getzoo dwarf hamster food and ingredients were used that have a positive effect on the sugar level.
