First I have made NO duplicate posts. You arent a mod so dont moderate me. That also is not allowed. What were you feeding your chin? What hay did you offer daily if any. What extras where you feeding? Where there any other medical conditions along with this problem? Was water intake adequate? What exactly did you do wrong? Also please read through this thread more accurately. I live in the u.s. I am not ordering online at this time for personal economic reasons that are no ones business on this forum. If you read the thread through you would know this. Oh and happy birthday by the way. I noticed it is your birthday when I logged back on.
You're right, that isn't allowed, just trying to save the mods some trouble; i'll gladly report instead.
He was being fed THIS. He got timothy hay daily and raisins once a day. He was a perfectly healthy chinchilla other than that. Normal water intake, up until the night that he had to the prolapse.
I have a life and have plenty of things to do. When I do post, I try my hardest to get an idea of whats going on. I do not have time to sit here and read every post that you've made. I know the general idea though, you want to feed a **** food even though others are telling you not to. I've given my .02 I'm just looking out for the chins and quite frankly i'm getting fed up with owners coming on here asking for advice but not interested in listening.
I apologize if i'm wrong about you not listening, but it seems that way. Like I said, when I do come on, I try to help. Is it ignorant to not read a whole thread? Probably, but if there's a chance of helping then i'm all for it.
NO the food won't kill him after one bite, but plenty of members here can tell you that it can significantly shorten his life. Can you post a link to the "chinchilla" version of the food you are referring to? Is it a Kaytee brand food?
ETA; Said chin was 6 months old at the time of death.
