apparently he likes it even better than the normal Heinz stuff, and he stops getting excema on his nose,ears and paws ...

I have also noticed that his coat is a lot thicker and shinier than it was ...

I once had a sickly hamster. The vet suggested cod liver oil. The hamster hated it at first, but got really strong and glossy and began to love it-- he ate the eye dropper in order to get it to flow faster.

He took to this different version very quickly and its turned him round in about two weeks. Since I brought him back from being down in Norfolk at New Year in fact.

He has also put on weight and is no longer 'weedy' - which males can get to be if they go off their grub.

Plump, shiny, muscular boy he is now, and at over 1 year that's good for a squeak.

It's amazing what a difference a change of diet can make. I'm glad he's doing well.

Its no worse than some of the things people are feeding their young children I am sure. What gets me is mothers standing at bus stops with their children SMOKING.
