Grain & Soy-Free, and formulated with premium Timothy Hay, whole safflower, whole flax seed, and chelated minerals to promote digestive health and a shiny fur coat! This is formerly known as Maintenance and Support.
Sherwood’s unique formula uses alfalfa (instead of the commonly used soybean meal) because it is a more natural, healthier and balanced source of protein that chinchillas are adapted to. It is blended with premium grass hay and fortified with additional nutrients. Veterinarians agree that this diet is superior to the grain/soy based diets on the market today.
By the time bunnies reach about 11 to 12 weeks of age they are "teenagers" and need to switch to a diet that is lower in energy and fortified with specific nutrients. This helps them mature without getting fat. In fact it will help them stay trim and active and you'll know that they are healthy on the inside because you'll see the difference in the quality of their fur coat on the outside! Your chinchill will live a healthier and ‘hoppier’ life.

Feeding Directions
For chinchilla that don’t eat enough loose hay (at least 50% of the diet by weight) this hay-based, grain/soy-free food provides the additional hay they need. It is a balanced, fortified and complete food low in calories that contains additional Timothy hay to provide correct amounts of long-strand fibre for proper digestive health. As a result rabbits will regulate their own food intake. It will also help overweight chinchilla shed excess body fat and help underweight chinchilla gain healthy weight and improved muscle tone by supplying a proper balance of the essential nutrients needed for optimal health.
