What Do Chinchillas Eat? | The Official Chinchilla Care Series

The Official Chinchilla Care Series *See below for some general pointers and timestamps!* 00:00 Intro 00:22 Pellets 02:51 Hay 05:50 Water 08:20 Treats “What do chinchillas eat? What kinds of treats are safe? Where do I get all this stuff?” All your diet related questions for owning chinchillas are answered in this cute, concise video being the first of our care series by the one and only Chinpals. Some general points: 1. A chinchilla’s diet should be very bland: pure pellets (no mix-ins) and fresh timothy hay 2. The brands Oxbow and Mazuri are excellent for pellets, and Oxbow, Standlee, and Small Pet Select are our favorites for timothy hay. 3. Limit treats to one small piece a day, or less; chins don’t need treats in their diet, and less is always better! 4. Avoid treats with nuts, seeds, fruits and veggies (dried or fresh), high fat, and sugar. 5. Good easy to find treats are plain cheerios, plain oats, and unfrosted mini wheats. 6. The best water bottles are glass with a spout and ball/spring, we like Lixit and Oxbow bottles! 7. Use purified water instead of tap to reduce the chances of giardia. 8. Clean your bottles once a week, and make sure you change the water in the bottles roughly every other day! 9. Whimsy's Menagerie, NOLA Chin Rescue, and Pandamonium Pets are excellent resources for safe treats, toys, and chews!
