Use a small scale and weigh Toffee. An adult Syrian hamster should weigh between 150 grams and 200 grams. If she is under 150 grams, have her examined by a veterinarian experienced in treating pocket pets to diagnose illness or injury. You can supplement her diet with bits of hard boiled egg or scrambled egg. Follow the link for a list of approved foods to vary her diet. http://dwarfhamsterblog.com/dwarf-hamster-food/ It says "dwarf hamsters", but these foods can also be fed to Syrians.
