Question:
Hi everyone,
I just came back from a mini trip to Ottawa and Ritchies had no Mazuri in stock . What is the second best chin pellet ?...i'm in Canada !!!!......I can get the other chin food made by Purina..but it not the same quality.....any suggestions out there?
red


Answer:
Oxbow is another very good feed and comparable to Mazuri. I wouldn't say it's second best but more of an equal. I think you can find a list of canadian dealers at www.oxbow.com


Answer:
redrose aren't you in the province of quebec? Are you close to Montreal? If you are there is an oxbow dealer right there. Neuroleptical gets her feed there.


Answer:
Hi Solarsis,
I live in Montreal and I think Dr Lupu sells Oxbow (exotic vet)...thanks for the suggestion.

Answer:
I use Oxbow... and used to use Mazuri... my chins like both


Answer:
I hope you have enough Mazuri if you plan to switch to something else...switching feeds needs to be done over a period of at least 2 weeks, preferrably a month to prevent stomach upset and soft poos. Otherwise I would check out some websites and order Mazuri online...Most breeders that sell it can have it to you within a few days, (even in Canada) Maybe just order enough to get you through until your feed store restocks. I hope this helps!


Answer:
I don't know if you have Tradition (Hubbard Feeds) pellets available over there, but you could check out their website. We've been using Tradition for years, I think it's the best pellet, myself:

Maybe this link on my site might help, there's also a link there to a page on analyzing pellet brands:
