FYI, the striped sunflower seeds are for the hammies. They can cause allergies in mice. I save the black sunflower seeds for the mice. Sometimes, they get to pick out their own treats, they sure do like that!

Oooooh! I've gotta make up something like this. What are the treats you have?

I was thinking about doing something like this! Great idea!

Pumpkin seeds! A real favourite in my house! Wink

Pine nuts are #1 though Very Happy

Clever idea. I'm going to have to steal it once mine figure out their favorite snacks.

Nice! I'd love to hear what all the colorful treats are. I've thought about using a container like this too, but now I just use jars like these.

And some that look similar, just larger. The little ones I found at good will, the larger ones at dollar tree.

Row 1:Walnuts, pecans, cashews/cheerios/oats

Row 2: Gerber puffs/rice crispies/mini milkbones, Vitakraft Animal Lovens Garden Patch Small Animal Treats

Row 3: Pumpkin seeds/Supreme Tiny Friends Farm Lovelies Hamster Treats/Brown's Tropical Carnival Natural Select Seeds Treat/coconut flakes

I actually have a ton more treats that aren't in there! I have flaxseeds in a shaker and I keep the mealworms separate so they don't break. I have a lot of critters and they each seem to have distinct favorites and i like to give them what they want!
