Oxbow Essentials Hamster & Gerbil Food 450g
23,31 €/Kg
In Essentials Hamster & Gerbil Food, timothy grass meal is followed by hulled barley, oat groats, canola meal and millet. Crude protein is at least 15%, crude fat at least 4.5% and crude fibre 10 to 15%, which is fibre rich for a hamster food. Some minerals are chelated, which according to the manufacturer improves absorption; natural tocopherols and rosemary extract are used as preservatives. Uniform pellets mean the animal cannot pick out only the tastiest pieces. Prebiotics support digestion.
According to the manufacturer's table, the daily amount is about 15 g for a small hamster and about 40 g for a gerbil or large hamster; the exact amount is on the pack. Young animals under 6 months and pregnant or nursing females may eat freely. Switch to the new food gradually over four weeks.
