This is purely hypothetical because i don't know the actual details.

Four years ago when i was still working before my injury, i came across a girl their that had her own chins. So naturally we talked about them and what not. I ended up giving her some of the food i was using for my chins. (I forget exactly why). Supposedly her chins did the same thing mine did. (Much to my surprise). They went after the new food right away, and actually refused to touch the old stuff. So shes been using that food.

Now the rest is mearly hear say, because i obviously don't see her any more. My dad however does now and then briefly.

Supposedly it was said (something along the lines) that not only did her chins not touch the old food, but that they arnt touching the hay much anymore either. Now that could mean they eating just a little less, or the other extreme, not eating it all all. I don't know. (Or it could have been misheard entirely)

Point being, i was curious what would happen if the extreme did accure. And a chin stopped eating their hay in favor of pellet food.
 
Chins are fed a pellet only diet, IMO its not great but I have not heard of any resulting teeth issues, at least none that are made public. Hay is important, a hay that chins like needs to be found and given.
