Hamsters can eat steamed buns. The main component of steamed buns is starch, which can provide a certain amount of energy and nutrition for hamsters. However, it is not recommended to feed hamsters too many steamed buns, because the steamed buns will expand in volume when exposed to water, and hamsters that eat steamed buns and drink water can easily cause Abdominal bloating. It is recommended that pet owners only feed their hamsters a small amount of steamed buns, and regular rat food should be the main food.

Precautions for hamsters eating steamed buns:

1. Feed fresh steamed buns. Hamsters should be fed fresh steamed buns that have just come out of the cage, rather than hard steamed buns that are about to go bad.

2. Feed in small pieces. When feeding steamed buns to hamsters, do not feed them whole. Instead, tear the steamed buns into small pieces and place an appropriate amount next to the hamster.

3. Drink water after digestion. After feeding the hamster steamed buns, it is best not to drink too much water immediately, because the steamed buns will expand in volume when exposed to water. If the hamster eats steamed buns and then drinks water, it will easily bloat, so it is best to wait for a while before feeding water.

4. Mainly rat food. For hamsters, the nutritional value of steamed buns is low, and they can only eat some steamed buns occasionally. They should usually eat regular rat food as their main food.
