I love Oxbow, and Oxbow’s Chinchilla Food is the only food I buy for my chinchillas. Ever since I rescued my chinchillas two years ago, I’ve been feeding Oxbow’s Chinchilla Food. They were on Oxbow when I adopted them, so I received a bag of food. I was going to transition to a different brand if there was better-quality food; however, after some research, I was confident that Oxbow was one of the few makers of high-quality chinchilla food, along with Mazuri.
I never give out one of those “Fiesta Mixes” that are supposedly for chinchillas and other small animals. They contain corns and sunflower seeds, which are detrimental to chinchillas’ digestive systems. And Oxbow food’s main ingredient is alfalfa hay to supplement essential vitamins and fiber for healthier digestion and energy.
The food is good for chinchillas of all ages, and it is available in 3 sizes – 3lb, 10lb, and 25lb. I always order the 25lb bags from Chewy for the competitive price and free shipping.
Every single time I open a new bag, it smells of fresh hay. I have not yet received a defective or faulty bag that wasn’t fresh, so based on my personal experiences, Oxbow is doing a good job.
My chinchillas love it. I pour a handful of the food into a separate bowl, and they love it. They hold a pellet with their tiny hands, and it is just adorable.
