DWARF & SYRIAN HAMSTERS: no more than "1" sugar cube worth per day of fruits (25% or 1/4 of that would be the serving of a "snack" to a dwarf hamster, so that would be the amount of banana I give mine, I have 11 hamsters (10 dwarfs and 1 Syrian) and my Syrian just had 33 pups, so far all doing great no deaths, and for newborn pups I don't recommend more than 1/4 piece per hamster pup (to ensure if you have more than 1 hamster per cage to not over eat? Wait until your hamster just wakes up from a nap, and hold the dish containing the fruit in front of each hamster (their cheek pouch can hold wet and dry foods and are capable of washing out their cheeks) so yeah hold until each takes their share of the fruit! Veggies? Dwarfs 1/2 a cube worth of cucumber is fine, they won't get wet tail ok! Don't listen to ppl who say lettuce will cause WETTAIL I give mine lettuce whole pieces every day! No hamsters ever gotten WETTAIL!

Wet tail is a combo of STRESS, TOO MUCH HIGH WATER CONTENT FOODS "and" DIRTY ENVIRONMENTS.... Not just from lettuce!

U can feed all fresh foods just no more than 1 cube of fruit cuz fruits have a lot of sugar!! And veggies it's up to 1 cube is fine, cucumber u can actually give 2mm slice, or a 3mm slice of Mini cucumber!
