They all like and dislike different things.  I have one female who refuses to eat Cheerios, but loves Shredded Wheat.  I don't see a huge difference between the two, but apparently she does.   ???

::silly::Chinchillas have different personalities and tastes.
   Most of mine like banana, fresh and dried, but not all.
   Just like yogurt, some love it (I have one that actually cries for it) and others hate it.  When they really hate it, they will turn round and round on their hind legs while trying to wipe it off their lips and fuss the whole time.
    Some like papaya and some rose hips.
    They show you appreciation by grinding their teeth and smacking their lips when they really like it.  If they do not like it they can go from dirty looks to spraying you.   :D

Steph,

That is so funny you say that because out of 31, I have only one who LOVES a very occassional nibble of fresh banana!  When he eats it he pulls his lips back so far all you see is teeth, I am guessing he doesn't want any banana left on his mouth!  He looks just like a Llama!!!  The others do the face you were talking about and act like I am trying to poison them!

As long as they aren't frosted or anything like that.  Just plain Cheerios are fine as a treat.  Give them in moderation as with all other treats, of course.

I'm sorry, but I'm confused...  Is there a difference between plain Cheerios and cheerios cheerios?  ::think::  (I don't know all of the types and varieties of Cheerios that are available.)
