Buying Chin Food in Bulk

[cre8ivmind]

I have 5 chinchillas, and those little 3-pound bags of chinchilla food I get from a feed supply store don't last very long. Is there any chinchilla food I can order online that is in a bulk size, like maybe 10, 20 or even 50 pounds? Thank you!

You can usually ask a feed store to special order food for you. What are you feeding?

I get Purina Chow Show from a feed store 50 # bags.

I think the brand is Dumor. I get it from Tractor Supply. I've read that some rabbit food is okay for chinchillas, but I want to be cautious as to which ones.

Tractor Supply can get you Mazuri Chinchilla food, Purina Rabbit Chow Show (blue bag), and Manna Pro Sho in much larger bags than 3 lbs. If you ask, they should be able to order it for you.

you can get 25 pounds of Mazuri online at this link: http://www.mazuri.com/chinchilla.aspx?gclid=CJyUmYTJkMgCFZCRHwodmDwMtg

I think I'll order the Mazuri Chin food, and also request Tractor Supply to order it. Thank you!

its been a while, but iir the Dumor brand food at tractor supply is not all that good for chins anyway. But they have a few other options there. I used to use the ManaPro's Select Series Pro rabbit feed myself. 25 or 50 pound bags.
