What chinchilla food do you feed?

[perabalaofmystery]

i feed oxbow. i originally fed mazuri but my picky chin wouldn't eat it.

a ten lb bag last months for me unless my picky chin is in a mood to pee in her food bowls

I go through about 50lbs a week and finally had a ton custom milled. Got tired of the feed quality fluctuations, and it is cheaper.

My boys have been on oxbow for 7 yrs with no problems at all, my new girls came with mazuri, which is what I am feeding them now, but I am considering changing them over to oxbow as well, so I don't have to get 2 types of pellets.
But I am still in the thinking stage, I can get both feeds pretty easily, but which feed is better is my question.

I thought that chins could not eat rabbit food

there are only certain rabbit pellets that are safe for chins. I can't recall all the different brands, but others here will chime in on which ones are indeed safe.

Becky gets her feed from a dealer down near her now. We feed 3 1/2 bags a day and became a dealer a couple of years ago. Now its delivered to the house where I used to have to drive 6 hours one way to Ohio to pick it up with my van and trailer.

I wish they would deliever ours! I had to become a dealer for the mill to sell to me, but with the small quanities I need, it's pointless for them to deliever to us. I just drive down every 2-3 months for a new batch... Gives hubby the excuse to stop in at That Pet Place/ That Fish Place and do some fish shopping, and hit Cabelas up on the way home for some hunting gear
