It has been a pleasure getting to know this little lady. Since her arrival she’s the happiest and politest little ham, even sacrificing valuable wheel time to climb aboard your palm for a midnight pat.

Broccoli recognises human hands, usually coming over to explore and climb upon. She prefers to greet new arrivals with bouncy tongue licks in the hope there may be a new snack on the horizon.

In the evenings you’ll usually find Broccoli spinning in her wheel or tumbling around in her sand bath, she loves it and has no issues jumping in to give you a show. 

She also likes to mix up her sleeping arrangements hopping from one location to another until it’s just right. (This sometimes means sleeping in her toilet!) She loves mealworms, foraging and storing food. This very small, fearless and trusting girl will capture your heart as soon as you meet.

Since looking after broccoli she has magically changed colour, from what was a dark grey coat, to a much lighter grey and white! 

Things you’ll need to make Broccoli happy

Cage: To be a minimum of 80cm
Bedding: Uncented Oxbow paper bedding is recommended.

Sand: Wild Sanko sand as its less dusty as compared to other Brand’s. 

Wheel: Minimum size 21cm

Diet: Bunny Nature Dream Hamster Expert. Broccoli enjoys most fresh food, always coming over to explore when something is added inside her cage in the evening. Flaxseed sprays, Broccoli loves them and goes through them super fast, even spending time during the day to make sure she’s popped them all open.

Enrichment: She loves mixing up her sleeping arrangements so at least 2 or 3 hideouts is recommended for the her. A cooling plate or marble surface would also be ideal too for the warmer days.

Love: Lots of pats and bonding time.
