Mufftoneous is at it again! Did you know that chinchillas undergo a process known as coprophagy? That means they digest food twice so they can absorb valuable nutrients from their food that was not absorbed the first time!

It's also hilarious and super cute (debatable on the cute part for many)!

Coprophagy & Cecotropes The act of eating poop is called coprophagy. A chinchilla produces normal poops of digested food, but they also produce poops called cecotropes that contain undigested nutrients and vitamins. A chin will eat cecotropes to fully digest these nutrients which their body needs. So, It is perfectly normal.
