When should I be introducing more solid foods? currently Leonard and Squizz weigh 152g (leonard) and 115g (squizz) and they eat liek crazy. I give them a squirrel block in the am and they eat it all usually by the night. Today and yesterday they have been eating it all real fast. Today we gave them a new one by like 1pm. I want to make sure I am giving them the best nutrition possible. We will be overwintering them. We just ordered the big cage from henrys, should be here real soon :) When is it time to put them in there? I feel they are really overgrowing the "hamster-like" cage they are in now. They are always wrestling and horseplaying and I feel maybe they want a little more room? or they are just siblings and acting like normal lol. ALSO I am a bit nervous that its a boy and girl, will they be attracted to each other? or do they know they are siblings? I will update on pictures later:)

They always want more room. The more the better. When mine were small I gave them. mushrooms, peas, broccoli, and alot of the veggies on the healthy list. They will not like all of them but the will like most. They also always got their blocks and sometime avacado meat, no seed or skin, and some cherrios.
