Quality Recommendation : NOT RECOMMENDED
The Brown's Tropical Carnival Natural Fortified Daily Diet Chinchilla Food has a protein level that is too low, but the fiber level around 21% is good for our pet chinchillas. Fat levels are on point. There are no artificial flavors or preservatives and no added sugar. There are 9 whole ingredients that give a bit of variety.
