Getting Your Chinchilla's Appetite Back

Apple Cider Vinegar

Breeding chinchillas often suffer a loss of appetite. Apple cider vinegar added to their drinking water is effective in getting chins to eat again.

Use approximately 10 drops of vinegar per water bottle for one animal per day or 1/2 teaspoon per 250ml of water.

Once their appetite returns and the animal begins to return to it's normal weight, discontinue the vinegar supplement.

This supplement has also helped ensure easier birthing and prevents loss of lactation in nursing chinchillas.
