What food do chinchillas eat?

Chinchillas thrive on a diet of high-quality hay (like Timothy or orchard grass) and fortified pellets. Fresh water should always be available, and occasional chinchilla-safe treats can be offered in moderation.

How often should I feed my chinchilla?

Chinchillas should have constant access to hay, as it's their primary food source. Pellets can be given once or twice a day in measured amounts, typically 1-2 tablespoons per chinchilla.

How long does a bag of chinchilla food last?

It depends on the bag size and how much you feed your chinchilla daily. A standard 3- to 5-pound bag of pellets can last one chinchilla several weeks to a month, while hay may need to be replenished more frequently.
