Well, big bag? Small bag? Big hamster? Small hamster?
Sorry, I don't want to starve your hamster. Buy an extra if you can't get help on this, but ask a PetSmart, Pet Co., or wherever you shop for your hamster on advice for this.
Save the hamster food
Go to store and look at the ingredients of the food on the hamster food package.
Complete hamster mix, food that's specifically for hamsters.
Yes! In fact, ALL hamster food is made for Hamsters AND Gerbils! It is perfectly fine to give gerbils the hamster food, and also to give hamsters gerbil food!
Baby hamster's only drink their mother's milk and they proceed to eat hamster food once they're weaned.
If you go to the pet store, you will find hamster food there.
Too much food may cause a hamster's organs to "burst."
It might take a couple of months for a hamster to finish a bag of food. Hamsters don't usally eat to much. Hoped this helped! ==Second Answer== All hamsters will be different but my hamster used to get through 1 standard sized bag of Harry Hamster food in about 4-5 weeks. He was also fed fresh vegetables every day so the bag of food was not his only diet.
Don't let the hamster out of it's cage. To a cat, a hamster is prey. A food source.
You will get mixed answers for this question. The previous answer was "no", but I disagree. Hampster food and gerbil food are almost identical and are often sold as the same thing. It is ok, but try to keep it to gerbil food.
If you're all out of hamster food (I suggest you get some soon), you can feed your hamster carrots, lettuce, any vegetable. Stay away from foods other than this. You don't want to take any risks with your hamster. Also, you don't know if your hamster has any serious allergies. At all costs, do what I said. But, if you can help it, get some more hamster food! It's the easy and safe route to go.
Almost every pet store out there carries hamster food. I believe even wal-mart carries it.
