Hamsters cannot eat orange peels. The citric acid contained in orange peels will irritate the gastrointestinal tract of hamsters, causing vomiting and diarrhea in hamsters. It may also cause acute allergies in hamsters. At the same time, hamsters' teeth can easily break after being corroded.

The pungent smell of orange peels can cause rhinitis in hamsters, and can also cause allergies and skin diseases in hamsters.

Although hamsters cannot eat orange peels, they can eat orange pulp. Hamsters have many benefits of eating orange flesh:

1. Oranges are rich in vitamin C. Improve the immunity and antioxidant capacity of hamsters.

2. However, you need to pay attention when feeding. Because the water content in oranges is too high, do not feed too much. Just eat a small piece at a time, otherwise it may cause diarrhea in the hamster. Secondly, oranges contain high sugar content, and feeding too much will cause obesity and elevated blood sugar in hamsters. Rat food should generally be used as the staple food.
