Beaphar Care+ Chinchilla Food 1.5kg

Beaphar Care+ Chinchilla is a premium pellet food made to meet the nutritional needs of pet chinchillas. The pellets are extruded, a heating process that makes the proteins easier to digest. The recipe balances omega 3 and 6 unsaturated fatty acids from maize, wheat, soy and flaxseed, adds vitamin E to support the body’s cells, and includes tasty herbs and a balanced level of crude fibre. The firm pellet structure also encourages natural tooth wear, which matters for an animal whose teeth never stop growing. The bag holds 1.5kg.

Feeding it well

Hay should make up most of a chinchilla’s diet, with these pellets given as a measured daily portion following the guide on the pack rather than as an unlimited bowl. Chinchillas have sensitive digestion, so switch from a previous food gradually over one to two weeks, and keep sugary treats such as raisins and dried fruit to a minimum. Because every pellet has the same composition, there is no point removing pieces your chinchilla leaves, but do throw away any that become damp or soiled. Keep the 1.5 kg bag sealed in a cool, dry place.

Good to know

Alongside the pellets, chinchillas need constant access to fresh water and safe items to gnaw, which help keep their ever-growing teeth in shape.
