Yes you can but only small amounts , I would not recommend if you do not have a bowl because otherwise all the sawdust sticks to it. Otherwise its fine but if you see your hamster isn’t eating it straight away remove it because it will go rotten in a few hours and if she/he decides to eat it then it will make them ill. Also make sure someone in your house likes it or you will find yourself throwing the rest that you did not feed to your hamster away LOL!

Happy Hamstering !

Here is a list of fruit and vegetables hamsters can eat ,i use it alot.

yes,but you have to give them a small amount and little by little and theylle start getting used to them

Yes they can if it is the small ones

It would be a bad idea to make bananas a major part of your hamster’s diet because it would not be balanced nutritionally. If your hamster does like bananas and other fresh fruit, you might let it have a little bit occasionally as a treat.

Don’t give it a whole banana: cut it in little bits and you could give it 1-4 bits depending on how small the bits are

Yes they can eat bannana as a treat but if it is fresh bannana it must be taken out of their cage if they dont eat it all as it can go mouldy and they could get ill.

Dried banana is inlcuded in alot of dreid food mixes so it is completely fine.

By the way do not give to much fresh fruit as they can get ill also i know that syrians can eat banana and other fresh fruits but i dont know about dwarf hamsters and other breeds.

Hope this helps

In the 5 years that I bred hamsters I never ever gave banana.

Apple is a firm favourite fruit of hammies

Yes hamsters can eat bananas but if they start to get upset tummies then its best not to feed it again but your little hammie should be fine eating it.

We favor vegetables but like fruits that we use in salad such as tomatoes and avocados.

I’m not sure but i wouldn’t advise it, give it different greens, carrot, apple and sweetcorn ? Hope this helped
