Chinchilla complete.

[ChinchillaSteve]

Many people advised me to ditch the food I was giving (Prestige premium)
Now I use chinchilla complete.

It's the same brand (Versele-Laga) but it's pressed into pellets and doesn't contain pieces of fruit.

It's the best I could find, will this do?

Are you sure you can't find Mazuri? I know it's possible to get it in France, maybe in Belgium too?

Looked everywhere, even in France but without result.
I'm happy I found this though.

I scanned through it but I believe I saw it mention it had fresh vegetables somehow integrated in it.

I'm actually very curious about this. I've sat here and thought about it for a bit which doesn't happen too much to me these days ( actually thinking that is ).

Vegetables, integrated into the pellet, I don't actually see a problem with that. Many people feed their chins dried herbs, and other plant products. Hay is a plant product. One of the main reasons not to feed fresh vegetables is the variety in diet disrupting the GIT along with the additional water take causing diarrhea. Fruits for the same reason along with high sugar content. Dried vegetables incorporated into the daily pellet would actually not offer either of those things as an issue.

I'd be curious to see the actual ingredient list. I wouldn't want to feed it to a young animal cause the Ca is not balanced.

 

[ChinchillaSteve]

Aww man now i'm worried again

If you want I can copy the ingredients tomorrow.
But i'm SURE this is better than the previous food. (which had pieces of dried fruit)

Hey ChinchillaSteve,

I was wondering if you are still feeding your chin this? I just moved to Belgium from Italy and this was the only thing that looked decent since I can't get oxbow any more. Have you found any other good chin items? I have looked at a few store like Tom & Co. but haven't found the good name brand stuff. I am please though as there is more toys and stuff available here than in Italy :dance3:

Thanks in advance!
