Remember that good quality hay and/or grass should make up the majority of your chinchillas’ diet and should be available at all times. Chinchillas should also be fed a small portion of Excel nuggets, the occasional, suitable Excel Nature Snack to add variety and encourage emotional enrichment, and a small amount of leafy greens each day. Please talk to your vet for further information.
If you are currently feeding a muesli style food to your chinchillas you should gradually transfer your pets onto a hay and nugget based feeding plan over a period of between 14 and 28 days. Gradually reduce the amount of muesli and increase the proportion of nuggets until they have completely replaced the mix.
Always ensure you are monitoring your chinchillas’ weight to ensure a healthy weight.
