can you give hampsters fresh veggies ??

can you give hampsters fresh veggies , such as carrots lettuce or other things ? my daughter is wanting to do this but i dont know if its safe
Answers:
i used to give them all kinds, they usually love tomatoes, oranges, carrots, kale, alfalfa, grapes, strawberries, apples, melons too.
Be careful with any kind of lettuce, cucumber and things that would typically give a human gas, they have a really hard time digesting these. I'd keep those to a minimum, or not at all!!
Good luck!! Oh, as a treat, I used to put Tang into their water, they LOVE that, and it gives them vitamin C. Just don't make it strong, just enough to flavor the water a bit, and turn it light orange tint.
Yes, they feed them those type of veggies in childrens zoo corners
Sure can
Of course , and they need these things for better health just be sure that the vegetables are cleaned from the cage after the hamster is done, don't allow rotting vegetables inside.
yes of course you can feed them fresh veg not too much though and remove any uneaten veg so it doesnt go mouldy
