Charlie Chinchilla is basically nothing but treats, so no, it's not healthy. The healthiest chinchilla foods are Mazuri and Oxbow.
Yeah. Try Mazuri
the best food to feed a chinchilla is pellets and fresh hay and of coarse you have to have water
15 - 18 years if you keep your chinchilla healthy it might even live for 25 years!!!!
i dont know but do you want a pet chinchilla because i have one for $100 and it comes with shedding for the chinchilla too lay on and it comes with chinchilla food
the one that is the thing
It will be about 30-40 if you want a very high quality food and only 20-35 for a standard brand. Hope this helps, Chinchilla Lover.
They have a highly developed sense of smell. They also listen for hints for food.
yes it can, before you run out of the chinchilla food make sure you put a little of food in the chinchilla's bowl and mix it in with the little of the chinchilla food and that's it then you can feed it the food
NO. they can only eat chinchilla food if you feed them anything like meat sunflower seeds raisins so on it will kill them if you read anything about feeding your chinchillas treats it is not good for them and will kill them please do not feed them anything other then chinchilla food and chinchilla treats if its not made for chinchillas it will kill them. also use chinchilla sand not dust sand is very bad for them. anything with sugar in it can kill your chinchilla and will over time they live 10-20 years but if you feed them to many treats they will not live long at all.
don't worry about the tap water, yes tap is full of chemicals, but generally not anough to harm a chinchilla. if you are worried about it though you can give your chinchilla bottled water. my chinchillas drink tap all the time and are quite healthy. hope this helps.
On average a chinchilla lives for 17-18 years. If you keep it very well and healthy it can live up to 25 years. They usually live at least 10 years.
A commercially prepared diet will give your chinchilla most of what it needs. They also need hay, for fibre. Though they don't 'need' treats, they will appreaciate things like raisins, apples, orange slices, and other fruits. I have a attached a link to some chinchilla food products from www.bigalsonline.com
