    How to fatten up a mama chin

    We have two different supplements that we use. One is for growth and weight gain. The other is for general health. We DO NOT use the weight gain for pregnant females as it often makes the fetus too large for an easy delivery. Once the mother has littered we will feed the growth/lactation until...

    Supplements during pregnancy

    We give a good supplement to our pregnant and nursing females. Although we are consistent with our feed, not all batches are exactly the same. (We have lab tested our pellets and they deviate some with the time of year, availability of raw materials and the area in which the raw ingredients...

    How early is too early to wean? Mom can't feed all the kits, is losing weight

    weaning Laura you asked where I learned to wean at 49 days. I learned it years ago, 1964 when we purchased our chinchillas, attended our "chinchilla schooling" and later taught the same. If you notice Most of the mothers have basically weaned their young by this time. It also allows you to...
