Chinchilla food

Give your chinchilla healthy food suited to its delicate needs!

The chinchilla has one of the most delicate digestive systems in the rodent world. Native to the high mountains of the Andes, its metabolism is built for a diet very high in fibre and extremely low in fat and sugar. At Jardiboutique, we've selected the best chinchilla food, made up of complete pellets and dried plant blends that strictly respect this strict herbivorous diet.

Our range offers extruded (uniform) pellets that stop your pet from sorting its food, ensuring it gets all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals it needs without risk of deficiency. Good chinchilla food should promote slow digestion and optimal dental wear. By choosing Jardiboutique products, you give your little companion lasting vitality and an exceptionally soft coat.

Jardiboutique's technical tip: A chinchilla's digestive system cannot tolerate fresh fruit or foods that are too fatty (such as sunflower seeds). The golden rule: give it quality hay at all times, supplemented with a measured ration of specific pellets. Absolutely avoid commercial sugary treats, which can cause serious liver problems in this species.
