How do you prepare Hibiscus for chinchillas ? I have a very large hibiscus tree and seen someone selling it for chinchillas.
What does it do for them ?
 
i use hibiscus, but only the flowers. i buy them organic and they are dried and somewhat stiff. many of my chins love them.

i get my herbs & stuff from:

www.mountainroseherbs.com

maybe you can do an internet search and see how to prep them. i would assume a standard process of drying or even using a food dehydrator??
 
Okay interesting thanks . I will start saving the flowers from my tree then ! :) Do you feed them as a treat ?
 
No I haven't we dont use chemicals on any plants as we have other pets and sometimes small children in the house .
 
I know I dry my roses, when I can get them to grow anyway, and I rinse them and use a food dehydrator to dry them. it takes a few hours, but it works really well.
