The appearance of chinchilla is similar to that of our little rabbits and squirrels. Its head is like a rabbit and its tail is more like a squirrel. Now there are more and more people raising chinchillas in our life. When many novices are raising chinchillas or have the idea of raising chinchillas, you want to ask whether it is good to raise chinchillas? In fact, chinchillas are actually very easy to raise. Let’s learn how to raise a chinchilla.
1. Chinchillas have a very regular life, and their meal time is also the most punctual. Therefore, when raising chinchillas, they must be fed regularly and quantitatively. You can’t adapt to the new environment just because you can’t eat less. It is recommended to put some food and water in the cage every day to replenish its energy. At the time of changing seasons, we also need to replenish an appropriate amount of calcium for chinchilla, and we can feed some special snacks. If you are constipated, you can feed some apple puree or banana puree. Don’t let chinchillas bask in the sun.
2. Chinchilla should take a bath every three to four days. Generally, it takes a bath with bath sand or bath powder (it can take a bath by itself, just put it in a wooden bucket). It is a big taboo to take a bath with water.
3. Chinchilla is also very timid, so don’t take it out and walk it when you raise it, otherwise you may lose it.
4. Chinchillas also attach great importance to their own territory, so if you want to raise more chinchillas, you should pay attention to whether there is enough space.
5. Chinchilla is not afraid of cold, but it is very afraid of heat. Therefore, you should turn on the air conditioner 24 hours in summer. If you can’t do it, you’d better not raise it.
6. Be close to it when raising, otherwise it will feel lonely.
Although chinchilla is gentle, you can’t tease it, otherwise it will make some gnashing of teeth to intimidate you, and it’s not impossible to even ask you. Remember to buy some molars for it when you raise it, and often test its physical condition.
