How to Care for a Chinchilla After Birth

How to Care for a Chinchilla After Birth

After birth a chinchilla mother is fragile and needs close care, and the kits need attention. Check that her vulva is closed and nipples produce milk without cracks; keep the room above 20°C; boost her protein, minerals, and calcium (alfalfa, 5–10 g oatmeal daily); separate the male within 24 hours (she ovulates then); hand-feed kits if milk is short using infant formula; watch for constipation (apple quarter + hay); and track kit weight daily — gain after day 3 means nursing well.
