Breadform is a kind of food that is often used to raise hamsters. Bread has a high nutritional value. It was first used in France. They found that when it was dried and crushed and baked in bread, it would have a unique fragrance, and then it gradually became popular. In addition, the bread worm is also known as the "king of animal protein feed", so it is widely used to keep some pets, and hamsters are the most common beneficiaries.
Breadform is rich in nutrients, including 47% protein, 23% fat and 23% carbohydrate. It is also rich in various nutrients, especially vitamins B2, E, riboflavin and unsaturated fat. Therefore, it is often used by hamster owners as a nutritional supplement for pregnant/nursing mothers. It has the characteristics of high protein, low fat and amino acids, and is also rich in trace elements such as phosphorus, potassium, iron, sodium and aluminum. Most of the milk ingredients come from protein. Breastworms should be sufficient during lactation, but not excessive, which may easily lead to mastitis in female rats. At the same time, the bread worm contains an ENTO protein, which has not been desensitized. A few mammals will have allergies after taking it in large quantities. Recommended feeding quantity: less than ten animals per week. Reduce summer according to the situation, so as not to get angry! According to the individual situation, hamsters can be fed live worms or dried, and then stored in a ventilated and dry place. If possible, Tenebrio molitor can be dried into powder and added to hamster feed. Dry Tenebrio molitor and Tenebrio molitor powder have the same function as live worms.
Some people say that hamsters will become more fierce and wilder than other hamsters after eating bread worms. There is no basis for this statement. Don't pay too much attention to it. The reason why hamsters bite people is related to their personality and external environment, as well as their mood at that time. Because the breadworm is rich in protein, it is normal that the urine and excrement produced by hamsters after eating the breadworm will become more smelly than before.
Although breadworms are rich in nutrition, we should control the number. Overfeeding will lead to overnutrition, and obesity will also have a great impact on the health of hamsters. It is enough to feed mice food at ordinary times, and it can be properly fed in some special periods, such as pregnancy and calving.
