The link Immortalia posted says they contain BHT, which is a cancer causing agent that should be avoided when it comes to hedgies. So no, you shouldn't feed those to Paco.
Infant rice cereal can also be added for fiber, and it's a powder so it can't be picked around if dusted onto the food. You can also try to find dog food with smaller kibbles (or break the bigger kibbles up/grind them up if you can't find any small enough or it's too hard) that has more fiber and add some of it to the mix--if it meets the nutritional requirements for cat food, dog food is fine and is usually higher in fiber.
