    It's not much use to see those copies, I happen to have chinchillas, hamsters and lop-eared rabbits. I'm from Shanghai.

    I have pudding and silver foxes, which are only 10 yuan each, and the food is hamster food, and I can feed some snacks, but not much, but my two little ones even nibble on chinchilla food and Timothy grass for their hut mats. Living habits are sleeping most of the time, or don't quarrel with them, it will affect their lifespan, the trouble is to change the sawdust every 3 days, otherwise there will be a smell. If the conditions are possible, you can also buy hamster bath sand for bathing them, which is very fragrant.

    I advise you to catch them less, sometimes if you hold on tightly, they will spit all the food hidden in their mouths on your hands.

    My neighbor totoro sells about 900 pieces of gray in the regular store in Shanghai, and cat friends are 5 6 hundred, if the rp is poor to buy a sick one, it will be a tragedy, and their food will be alfalfa, Timothy grass (without this grass, you can also feed half a lactobacillus tablet every 2 days, if the cat poop is soft, only half a piece a day), snacks (but absolutely less feeding, picky eaters are not easy to do), staple food granules (definitely indispensable). My Neighbor Totoro is quite naughty when he comes out of the cage, and what I raise is, as soon as he gets out of the cage, he definitely goes under the bed, but he is still very likable in the cage. As for living habits, you just need to play with it more, otherwise it will often make a "desolate" sound.

    Fortunately, I raised 2 will not be lonely, one is a tragedy, Totoro belongs to the mouse, so there is nocturnal, I keep it in the room, as soon as the lights are turned off, they begin to be excited so that I can't sleep well, tragedy.

    I hope it can help you, hopefully!

    Grass in the morning and food in the evening.

    Adult chinchillas are dominated by Timothy grass Teenage chinchillas are dominated by alfalfa grass.

    For food, I usually use Aibao, Masurian Club, and the like.

    Also, the water to drink cannot be tap water (otherwise it will cause diarrhea), it must be mineral water, pure water, plain water.

    If there are snacks, there are dried apples, raisins, nuts and the like, but just feed 1-3 a day.

    It's okay if you don't feed it.

    If you also grind your teeth, use molars and dried apples.

    What's the problem.

    You can ask me. Pure hand-played. Hope.

    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.

    My neighbor totoro eats alfalfa grass in the morning and Timothy grass and the like.

    Underage chinchillas are mainly alfalfa grass, which has high nutritional value and grows the body, so it is more suitable for young pups.

    Timothy grass is high in fiber and can improve chinchilla's physique, long bones, so it is suitable for adult cats, and you feed the staple food in the evening, and chinchillas like Aibao Masuri are recommended to use Aibao Masuri is too oily.

    There is also chinchilla to grind teeth, you can use teething stones, apple branches and other snacks, it is better not to feed it, you want to train it to feed it again, so the effect is better, and one day don't feed too much, about 1-3 a day.

    Snacks (raisins, hawthorn slices, dried apples, etc.) will be picky eaters if you feed them for a long time, and you will only eat snacks and eventually die of dehydration.

    Also, chinchillas, don't eat fruits with moisture, except for apples, but it's still good to dry, and chinchillas can be fed some apples when they're pregnant.

    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.

    My chinchilla is a very cute little pet, a rabbit-sized chipmunk native to the Andes region of South America, known for its soft and beautiful fur, which is on the verge of extinction due to the wanton hunting by humans. Totoro has tenacious vitality and resistance, and it is very simple to raise. So do you know how chinchillas are fed?

    How to feed chinchillas

    1. Juvenile chinchillas.

    1. The food fed by juvenile chinchillas (before 8 months) is mainly staple food, alfalfa, and grass. For example, on the first day, the grass is lifted in the morning, the staple grain is in the evening, the alfalfa is used in the morning, the staple grain is in the evening, and the first day is repeated on the third day. In addition, it is best not to feed baby chinchillas.

    2. Juvenile chinchillas should be used as the main food, so as to provide enough nutrition to chinchillas, in addition to this, they should only be given two days a week to Timothy grass to eat, to reduce the burden on the stomach, if only to alfalfa and staple food to cause soft stools, the weight of chinchillas will be affected.

    2. Adult chinchillas.

    1. Adult chinchillas (after eight months) are given staple food and grass to stop the alfalfa. Adult chinchillas can also prepare a small amount of treats in addition to a suitable staple food. Totoro can eat snacks are very single, special chinchilla snacks or fresh apples, carrots, sand fruits or red fruits peeled and diced, any snack every other day to give 1 2 is enough, do not give more.

    2. Totoro is a very drought-tolerant animal, but Totoro's drinking water must be clean, not to give Totoro to drink raw water, at least boiled water or purified water, an adult Totoro needs 20 40 ml of water a day is enough.

    What are the precautions for chinchilla breeding

    1. Totoro can't eat any fresh vegetables and fruits, the only thing that can give them is apples, and food with too much moisture can easily cause chinchilla diarrhea.

    2. Totoro can't eat peanuts and soybeans, peanuts contain too much oil, and soybeans into the abdomen to absorb water will swell and cause Totoro to feel uncomfortable, and may even cause intestinal obstruction and death.

    3. The leftover feed and hay eaten by chinchillas should be discarded, which is generally leftover, and those who think that there is no nutrition should believe in their expert vision.

    4. Alfalfa grass is one of the main components of chinchilla feed, and eating alfalfa in large quantities can quickly fattening chinchilla. But chinchillas should not be overweight, so alfalfa grass should be put as a supplementary nutrient grass, usually twice a week.

    5. The chinchilla cage should be placed in a cool, well-ventilated place, but not at the tuyere, if the chinchilla has been blown directly by the wind, it will catch a cold.

    6. Summer is the season when chinchillas are sad, because chinchillas have very thick hair, so when the weather is hot and humid in summer, it is best to turn on the air conditioner at home to reduce the indoor temperature.

    My Neighbor Totoro. He prefers to eat tender and juicy plants, as well as bark, hay and seeds, and is usually fed grass, cereals and green fodder or compound feed, including herbaceous plants, under captive conditions.

    Vegetables, wild vegetables.

    Mulberry leaves, elm leaves, alfalfa, cereals, etc. The feed intake of an adult chinchilla is about 5 6% of its body weight, and its eating posture is much like that of a squirrel, sitting on its hind legs, grabbing food with its forelimbs, and feeding it into its mouth 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 chinchillas, which are generally made up of grains, grass powder and various trace elements.

    Granular food that is crushed and pressed. 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 pasture, the more suitable dry forage grass is Timothy grass, pasture grass, fruit tree grass and alfalfa 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 all be used as auxiliary hay to spice 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 food 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.
