I bought both the alfalfa and the carrot slims for my Syrian Hamster. She nibbled a bit on the alfalfa one but has largely ignored it. I didn’t think she would particularly care but a tiny bit of alfalfa helps their digestive system and I believe it’s helped in that department. Anyways, I ended up buying the carrot ones and she has gone wild over them! They are nice and hard for chewing. I thought maybe they’d be a little softer and more like a treat that she could munch on. I was happily mistaken when I realized how hard these were. They are like a a wood stick for chewing except flavored and textured. It’s the same size, relative shape and hardness. I find it sitting in whatever den/hide she has used for the night and hear her gnawing in it. For a hamster that is picky and has never taken to any chews (and I’ve tried them all including dog chews!) she really likes these. I doubt that they are particularly healthy but considering she wouldn’t chew on anything else I don’t really care and will probably buy the corn ones to try out as well. These will last quite a long time bc she spends her time gnawing on it instead of actually eating them. I lost a few to the ravages of a small bladder and had to throw them away but it would take her a very very long time to actually get through and eat an entire one. Other animals would be different and they would probably go through them much more quickly (like a bunny or chinchilla etc)
The price is a steal and she loves them so I’m very happy!!
