Feeding Instructions

Chinchilla: 3 Tablespoons For best results discard any uneaten portion and clean food dish before next feeding. Fresh water should be available at all times. The following feeding amounts can be used as a starting point for 1 pet. Adjust the portions to maintain proper weight and if additional pets are fed. Transition Instructions When introducing a new food, begin with a mixture of “old and new” food, gradually increasing the amount of new food over a 7 – 10 day period. This will prevent digestive upset as well as allow your pet to adjust to the new food.
