What is Oxbow POOF! Chinchilla Dust?

Oxbow POOF! Chinchilla Dust is a 100% natural dust bath designed to support your chinchilla's grooming routine and overall wellbeing. It is sustainably harvested without strip mining, explosives, or tunnelling.

How often should I provide a dust bath for my chinchilla?

You should bathe your chinchilla 2–4 times per week, with each bath session lasting 3–5 minutes. This helps maintain soft, healthy fur and supports natural grooming behaviour.

How much dust should I use in the bath container?

Provide approximately 1 inch of Oxbow POOF! Chinchilla Dust in a stable, tip-proof bath container or house. Replace the dust if it becomes soiled during or between bathing sessions.

What should I do if my chinchilla is unwell before using this product?

Consult your veterinarian before use if your chinchilla is unwell or behaving unusually. This ensures the dust bath is appropriate for your pet's current health status.

Can the dust be reused after bathing?

Replace Oxbow POOF! Chinchilla Dust if it becomes soiled; however, the used dust can be recycled as a beneficial soil additive once it is no longer suitable for bathing.
