How often can I give my hamster mineral blocks?

Is it okay to give my hamster a human medicine to treat his broken leg?

  • I bought two hamsters a week ago, one grey and one brown, both in the same size. Ester, my female brown hamster, grew quite bigger in just a week but Ham, my male grey hamster, didn't change at all. I noticed Ester's size change just a couple of days ago. As I watching them play, I noticed that Ham couldn't open his left eye. I tried to dampen his left eye with wet q-tips thinking that it was just eye boogers sticking on his eye but there was nothing. It was just yesterday that Ham is limping and couldn't walk normally. From that moment, I knew that I have to separate him from Ester because maybe they were fighting. I knew that I should have separated them from the moment that I noticed Ester's size but I didn't know where to put Ham, I don't have an extra cage. So now, I want to cure Ham and give him a medicine but I couldn't afford to bring him to the vet that would cost more than a hamster's worth. But I don't want him to diiiiiiie~!!! :'( If it's okay to give him some medicine, what can I give him?

  • Answer:

    No give him the medicine and he will die. If you could not afford the vet bills you should not have bought a pet you should give them up to an animal shelter.

you cannot give him human medicine, his got a broken leg and would be on complete agony! take him to the vet and ask if you can pay installments, you can't let him live with a broken leg, itll heal disfunctionaly if it even does without proper treatment, if you had a broken leg im sure you would go to the doctor. if he cant go to the vet on his own, so please try help him out.
