yogurt
« on: October 16, 2013, 08:51:10 AM »

What is a safe amount of yogurt to treat? Also, should fat- free or low- fat be used? And finally, will Chobani Greek Yogurt harm my chinchilla? The plain flavor, I mean.

I think the recommended dose is regular plain sugar-free or unsweetened yogurt from what I have read in the past and that is what I would go with. As far as Greek yogurt I would not try it because it denser than regular yogurt and has not been proven to be safe. Although I can't say for sure if it's safe I suspect there could be a risk of constipation with this.
For regular yogurt I think it's two tablespoons per day but you may want to verify this.
