Amount to feed my baby Roborovski?

[Obie's Mum]

Hi, I'm getting to know my first Roborovski, who is only 3 months old. I'm feeding him Burgess rat, gerbil, and mouse kibble until my order of Bunny Dreams Dwarf Hamster food arrives. I'm giving him extra protein in the form of dried mealworms. I have no idea how much to feed him, I just filled his bowl with some of the kibble and sprinkled on a pinch of dried mealworms yesterday. Happy to pay out for whatever he needs to keep him healthy Looking forward to getting some advice

I think he'll love the Bunny Dream mix - my robos were on that. I used to give a level dessertspoonful if that helps! Although they don't eat that much they love foraging in a food bowl (or sitting in it) and build quite big (tidy) hoards in my experience. My robo experiences were "tidy" hamster underground I would also scatter a little bit in the cage, but I didn't do that regularly as he loved having a bowl to sit in and forage in the bowl. They also absolutely love their sand baths and use them daily to roll around. Tidy as in mine had his pee area well away from his hoard and sleeping area. They had a multiroom house with a little toilet inside and actually used the toilet. Although he did end up sleeping under the house rather than in it, but still came up and used the little corner toilet in there.
