My Chinchilla Cookie Recipe
« on: May 04, 2010, 10:04:12 AM »

First off, I disclaim any express or implied warranties and you make this at your own risk :::grins::.

My chinchillas absolutely loved these so I thought I would share it with all the chin lovers in the world :-)

I put some food and some animax in a bowl (1/4 cup of each) in about 3/4 cup of filtered water.  I let that sit until all the water had been sucked up into the food.  Took about 1 hour.  I took a food processor, threw about 12 rose hips a handful of alfalfa in and about 1/2 cup of oats.  I pulverized it, then added the food slurry to the food processor, I then added more oats until it was the right (oatmeal cookie) consistency.  Then about 1/4 teaspoon of molasses.

Then I took a baking sheet with some parchment paper and spread out the mix 1/4" high then I baked at 250 for 20 minutes, just until it becomes hard.  Cool for 12 hours and cut and serve :-).  They loved it.

Sounds like a great recipe.  I'm guessing its a lot like the Horse Cookies people give ... but more fun.  :)

Not really sure, I've never given them a horse cookie before  :::grins:: but I break off a tiny chunk and they were sitting there eating it up.

Ok, so I copied the ingredients and gotta ask, what is "Animax"?  When I google it it comes up as an ear medication.....
