Hello and A Qeusttion

Question
Hi, I am a fellow expert at allexperts.com and I noticed that you havent had any qeustions yet.   :(So I decided to ask you some stuff and rate you...hopefully youll get a perfect 10 and more people will ask you questions. I myself have only had 4 qeustions. Here is my question:

I have a new hamster and I was wondering what kind of beeding would be good for him. I want it to be safe but soft. I know that pine and cedar are big no nos, so what should i use?  And also what food should i use.. i am currently using Kaytee Hamster food...is that good? and what kind of treats should i use? Thanks.

Answer
Hello Francesca,
I used Aspen, but Carefresh is good too.  To tell you the truth you get more Aspen then Carefresh for a less cost.  The food you are using is good.  That is the food I used.  I don't have one anymore but my sister does.  I don't remember what kind of treats it was exactly.  It was a Kaytee brand though.  It had nuts and a lot of stuff they liked.  Sorry I wasn't that helpful with the treats but that is the only thing I could remember.  You might want to get Vita-drops.  They become helpful through out your time of having a hamster.

Ashley
