Diseases, winter white dwarf hamster
Common diseases in winter white dwarf hamsters as well as common in hamsters in general.
Warts
Warts are one thing that can appear in winter white dwarf hamsters and they can cause problems depending on their location and how fast they grow.
Mites / Demodex
Winter white dwarf hamsters like the other hamster species naturally have Demodex criceti and Demodex aurati in their fur which is passed from mother to offspring. This type of mite is not problematic until stress or other health problems appear, so outbreaks may indicate that the hamster is under a lot of stress or that it is struggling with underlying health problems.
JEg liker godt å bruke disse 2 typene ved neglklipp, mer så den til høyre men bruker den til venstre når jeg ikke finner den andre.
Cancer
Unfortunately, cancer is incredibly common in rodents, but I see a big connection between diet and cancer. A diet must be ingredient balanced, not just have the right nutritional values, which very few mixes on the market are. Pellets are therefore not suitable for dwarf hamsters as the values are completely wrong, so that pellets in hamsters do not contain all the nutrients and components that hamsters need to stay healthy.
Potetmel funker like godt som merkeprodukter solgt for det. Og vet ikke om alle typene er det men imazoo produserer noe av blodstopp man finner så for de som vil minimalisere støtten dit er potetmel best.
