This past Thursday marked six weeks for my first unexpected set of babies. They are two beautiful baby girls, Ava and Myia, they get along wonderfully with momma, Bella, and cage mate, Roxie. I have decided to keep them because I don't know their parents background, being I got the mom and cage...

The babies are two weeks and two days old, they are gaining a lot of weight and are very active! I believe they are both around 80 grams, when they were born it was 20 and 25 grams.

Pipsqueak (that's what I named him) did not make it. He passed away that same night at around 3:30, I last checked on him at 3, he didn't look good at all. When I weighed him he was only 15 grams, I feel so bad he was so small and helpless, I tried feeding him, I don't know how much he ate. Its...

On Monday I purchased two female chinchilla from a guy off of craigslist. When I got home I realized that one of the females felt big, well Thursday comes around and she had three babies. I am having trouble with one of the babies and I am afraid he is not going to make it, he is a lot smaller...

I sent a PM, but it's saying I didn't, I would like to purchase a 8 pound bag for 12.99.

How much would shipping be for 37167?

I'm pretty sure they were mites, I put his food in a big container with a lid, but I think that food was older, because it was at the bottom of the container. I bought some food today and he was jumping all over me. I check the new bag extremely good and I did not see any bugs so I'm...

I just spent two hours cleaning the cage, and I did not see any more bugs, I checked his hay, his bedding and his dust, and there was no bugs, I only seen it in his food. I scrubbed everything and gave him fresh dust and he rolled happily in it, so hopefully everything is fine. Thank you Daina91880.

I was feeding my chinchilla and I noticed the little crumbs from his food moving and at first I figured it was from the fan, but I tilted it up and the food was still moving so I watched carefully and I seen little white bugs moving around, there were a lot of them and they are extremely tiny. I...

Not yet, I couldn't get him to hold still, I tried to check a million times though, but he's starting to pee a lot more, and it's normal color, and he's acting normal and eating and drinking fine, but if he starts acting up again I have a vet I can take him to.

I was watching him and he went in his little corner and stayed for a little, he got in a weird looking position, but he was finally able to pee, it was a brownish color and then he started running around his cage and he took his ladder down and he's eating his hay.

Does anyone know about how much it'll be for a vet visit? And what the problem might be, and what could've caused it? I seen him drinking his water like two or three different times and he drunk about half of what I had, and I gave him hay and he ate that normally, but it seems he ate less of...

I had my chinchilla upstairs in my parents room for a few months so my grandma would stop messing with him. Yesterday morning I went up there to take care of him and found out that my parents had him right by the window with the hot sun shinning on him, the window shut, the air off, and the fan...
