Skuzzball loves sesame seeds.

Posted by Ned (Toronto, Canada) on 15 April 2007 in Animal & Insect.

I am constantly on the lookout for neat snacks to give the hams that fit their diet (no sugar, low salt). So I was very excited to find these pretzel sticks covered in sesame seeds rather then salt, Skuzzball is excited too.

He had never had food is this shape before and he wasn't sure how to eat it. I have a few shots that didn't turn out of him trying to stuff the whole thing into one of his pouches at once. Then he started eating just the seeds from the outside before he discovered that he could chew his pretzel in half.

I've given a few of these to him now (Booger doesn't like them) and instead of burying them like he does with seeds he has them leaning in a corner of his house, like lumber.
