Can chinchillas eat a lot and what can chinchillas eat?

It's a good thing that the baby can eat, the chinchilla won't hold up to himself, you still give enough food and grass every day, give more water, so that you can grow fast, hehe, there are a few healthy snacks that can be suggested to you, but you must give less

Healthy snacks: rosehips, roses, osmanthus, dandelions, apple branches (no problem to give as much as you want, no pesticides), roselle, wolfberry (not suitable to eat more, easy to get angry), etc., snacks are snacks after all, not as a staple food, so snacks are best given one to two small pieces a day, don't give more; Totoro should not eat sweets, so the less sugar you give to your daily snacks, the better

My neighbor totoro is smart and knows how to be hungry. It's okay

But LZ should be careful, there are many things that may not be good for them, but the cats don't know it. So remember to give your cat healthy food appropriately, and don't give a lot of it because they like it, because eating too many snacks is not good for them. It will mess up their gastrointestinal function, and cats will be prone to illness.

A healthy and reasonable diet can raise a good cat Oh And ah It is a good thing to be able to eat cats Hehe! Congratulations lz, my cats are hungry, t t Timothy grass doesn't like to eat" "Sad

It can feed as much grass and staple food as it can, and my chinchilla is not a stupid thing like a goldfish, and he will eat it violently if he dies.

If a cat eats more, it means that it can indeed eat so much, and it will not eat stupidly when it is full.

Forget about snacks.,My neighbor totoro is too gluttonous.。。 I raise a family, my parents don't listen to what they say, they are used to them, and they can really be fed raisins all the time without interruption, and they actually eat dozens of them at a time.

Speechless... Eating too many snacks will directly lead to not eating well...

It doesn't matter if you feed more staple food and grass

As long as he can eat, he eats, and my family also eats a lot, so he will naturally not eat again when he is full

The foods that chinchillas eat are: alfalfa grass, Timothy, fruit tree grass, vanilla, oat grass, etc.

1. Alfalfa grass

It is a leguminous plant and is one of the three major forage grasses in the world and is cultivated all over the world. The protein is very high, and the content of fat, crude fiber, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus is also slightly higher than that of other grasses, and its nutritional value is very applicable to chinchillas, so even if chinchillas are usually fed professional rat food, they should still be properly fed some alfalfa grass to supplement their nutritional needs.

2. Timothy

It is also called cattail grass, belongs to the state of the grass plant, is a lot of edible grass food of the pet locust, although Timothy's nutritional composition is similar to alfalfa grass, but the nutritional aspect of Timothy is much lower than alfalfa grass, but the sugar content is higher, so it is very popular with chinchilla.

3. Fruit trees and grasses

It belongs to the grass family, suitable for adult chinchilla rabbits, and is a fresh-flavored grass food with a relatively delicate taste. Like Timothy, it is low in protein and rich in crude fiber, which has certain benefits for chinchilla's gastrointestinal conditioning.

4. Vanilla

It has a very special aroma, so even chinchillas, who are usually more picky than the most cautious, are attracted to it, and the plant is high in fiber and can also promote appetite.

5. Oat grass

Oat grass has relatively wide leaves and is a high-fiber food, which diversifies the diet of chinchillas; It has a higher protein content than Timothy grass and is another flavor choice.

The volume of a chinchilla is more than 1 times that of a hamster, and hamsters eat meat and vegetarian food, while chinchillas only eat vegetarian dishes.

My chinchilla is a rodent-like animal. Totoro is a rodent, which is of the same kind as rats or rabbits. In biology, they are an independent species of chinchilladale, also known as chinchilladale.

Totoro is native to the Andes Mountains of South America, where it is inhabited by caves and rock crevices at an altitude of 1,600 feet. The weather is dry, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, and the chinchilla relies on some tropical plants (such as bark, roots, and cacti) for survival, so it is very vigorous. At present, the chinchilla commonly found in the pet market is also called the long-tailed chinchilla lanigera.

The vast majority of chinchillas that are pets and artificially bred belong to this category, and the wild chinchillas are almost extinct. All wild chinchilla native to South America are protected animals. My Neighbor Totoro has a very dense coat and its main purpose is to keep warm and prevent water loss.

In the 16th century, Europeans discovered that the fur of this small animal was so soft and dense, and they began to hunt chinchillas. As a result, at the beginning of the nineteenth century, Totoro was already on the verge of extinction. Later, an American brought eleven of them back to California and successfully bred them there, so that people have the opportunity to raise this cute little animal today.

My Neighbor Totoro has a lively, curious, active, and likes to jump around. Timid and cautious, he will sniff and then bite into every new thing. He is also very careful with his food, and he will sniff it before putting it in his mouth.

As soon as there is any trouble, they will immediately hide. Totoro is a vegetarian animal, usually likes to eat all kinds of fruits] pasture, dried grapes, nuts and dried fruits, the feces are dry and hard and easy to clean, and it is easy to raise.

Totoro likes to eat fresh and succulent plants, but also likes to eat bark, hay and seeds, and is usually fed grass, grains and green fodder or compound feed under captive conditions, including herbaceous plants, vegetables, wild vegetables, mulberry leaves, elm leaves, alfalfa, cereals, etc. Adult chinchillas eat about 5 6% of their body weight and eat in a posture much like a squirrel, sitting on their hind legs, grabbing food with their forelimbs and feeding it into their mouths little by little.

1. Staple food, feed chinchilla 1 to 2 tablespoons of staple food every day, once in the morning and once in the evening. The staple food is one of the most important foods of chinchilla, which is generally a granular food made of grains, grass powder and various trace elements after crushing and pressing poor lead. In terms of nutrient proportion, it meets the needs of chinchilla's growth and development.

In addition, staple foods with a certain hardness can also allow chinchillas to grind their teeth while eating.

2. Fresh dry forage, the more suitable dry forage grass is Timothy grass, pasture grass, fruit tree grass and alfalfa leased grass. The cellulose food in hay is important for chinchilla's gastrointestinal tract and dental health. To ensure that the grass is sufficient, provide chinchillas with new fresh hay every day.

Other hay such as oats, wheat, and barley grass can be used as auxiliary hay for chinchilla flavors. If you don't change the leftover hay for more than a day, it may become moldy and dirty, which is not good for Totoro's health.

3. Complementary food, complementary natural herbs, such as: dandelion, plantain, cactus, mulberry leaves, mint, etc. It is harmful for people to always eat snacks, and so are animals, so it is not recommended to feed everyone any snacks.

The complementary food can not only replace the snack taste, but also have different nutrients, which can meet the lack of some trace elements in the grain and grass, so you can feed the chinchilla a little bit every day.

Hello, what Totoro wants to eat is not expensive, oh call God. Totoro is not a picky eater, and likes to eat a variety of snacks, such as dried vegetables, dried fruits, dried flowers and plants, etc., but the parents of chinchillas should pay attention to the snacks to be clean, can not have preservatives, if you are not sure, then go to a special chinchilla food store to buy. My neighbor totoro's main food is alfalfa grass and staple food, one to two meals a day, chinchillas know how much they eat, they won't hold on, but they should pay attention to put clean drinking water next to them, and the bottles or other utensils for drinking water should be clean and cleaned frequently.

Totoro should not be kept in a hot environment. Totoro has thick hair and should not be bathed with water, and it is recommended that Totoro be cleaned with volcanic ash once a week. Hope it can help you, dear!

From Totoro's personal point of view, Totoro's daily food is divided into three categories: staple food, pasture, and complementary food.

1. Staple food. The staple food is one of the most important foods of chinchilla, which is generally a granular food that is crushed and weighed by grains, grass powder and various trace elements. In terms of nutrient proportion, it meets the needs of chinchilla's growth and development. In addition, staple foods with a certain hardness can also allow chinchillas to grind their teeth while eating.

2. Forage. Common forage species are alfalfa grass and timothy grass. Alfalfa grass is rich in protein and calcium, which is unmatched by other pastures; Timothy grass is low in nutrients except for its higher crude fiber content (about 30-35% compared to 20-25% for alfalfa). Alfalfa grass is recommended to choose a well-balanced stem and leaf, and do not buy alfalfa grass with more leaves and less stems, which not only makes chinchillas picky eaters, but also causes dental and digestive diseases.

Personally, I think Timothy grass is not a substitute for alfalfa grass, some breeders say that Timothy can ** soft stool, then it also depends on how soft stool is caused, most cases are caused by improper human feeding, so Timothy can be fed 1-2 times a week to clean up the intestines. In addition, whether it is alfalfa grass or Timothy grass, chinchillas can grind their teeth while chewing, preventing the problem of overly long teeth.

3. Complementary food. Snacks are harmful to people, and so are animals, so I never recommend anything to feed. The complementary food, according to my statement, is "healthy snacks" is worth promoting, the healthy snacks mentioned here are natural herbs, such as dandelion, plantain, cactus, mulberry leaves, mint, etc., which can not only replace the taste of snacks, but also have different nutrients, which can meet the lack of some trace elements in grain and grass.

Totoro is actually a kind of mouse, natural mice can eat it can also eat, of course, this thing is more delicate, we will not really be a mouse to raise, naturally eat some relatively clean, such as sparse vegetables, bark, hay and seeds, melon seeds and other nuts, soybeans and mung beans are all eaten.

Chinchillas should not eat any fresh fruit except for a few fresh apples once in a while.
