When clean snowys cage today. I noticed a lot of food stored. Should I feed her less frequently or keep the regular food amount?
 
I think that sounds normal :-) If the hoard gets extremely large (like taking up a quarter of the cage!), you could prune it from underneath and remove the older half but leave the newer half on top. How much are you feeding? It's normal for them to pouch and hoard most of their food and then snack from their hoards.
 
I have to day the first time I discovered just how much one timy hamster hoards I was flabbergasted I removed all of it as I thought it would be nutrient deficient after so many weeks so I replaced it with the same but fresh food don't think Pete noticed but if he did he didn't complain 🙂
