I'd like to present you some good fooder plants for chinchillas (and also degus). All of them are quite easy in maintainance and grow well indoors. In southern, Mediterranean (and warmer) parts of Europe (e.g. southern Spain / Andalusia, southern parts of Italy, Greece and so on) or America (e.g. California, Florida and so on) it may also grow outdoors the whole year round.
