Look at the ingredients. Number 2: poultry by-product. This is supposed to be a treat intended for a species that is solely herbivores? I think they missed the mark with that one. Chins need fiber, not protein. I am guessing they were trying to just save money by manufacturing this with something else.

A delicious treat for my favorite little chinchilla!! He goes crazy when he sees me get his treat can out! And there is a ton of different kinds of treats.

In addition to the ingredients listing as the previous reviewer stated, there is nothing nutritional about this mix. A better idea would be to buy your pet some fresh raisins. Remember that experts warn against too many treats. One or two raisins a week is enough. If you are training you can cut them into tiny amounts. Feeding your chinchilla too many treats can bring on diarrhea or much worse, hunchback disease which strongly indicates liver damage from too many treats. Be kind to your pet and offer them the best pellets and timothy hay and sterlize their water by boiling it.

I would definately not buy this mix again, and if you research a little bit you can find plenty of fresh treats to feed them in very small quantities. Remember that chinchillas will eat what tastes good but it may not necessarily be healthy for them.
