Ya know, Ive always asked them about "caged pets" vs naming the pet. Rarely do they ask further. We have done that over the years with rats/snakes/even my bird with no real investigation or comments/complaints about them.

It was REALLY easy, and fun!

You can pick up granite/marble or stone tiles at any home improvement store :) I picked up some really pretty quartz tiles, 4 for $6 :)

This seems like the perfect place to show off what I have been working on over the last few weeks! I started off with Blue and his super small hamster/rat cage. Ya know the wire one from petco that folds flat? Yep, that was the one. I knew Blue needed a better pad pronto. In searching for a...

I thin that as with anything, there are differing opinions on these things. I know that as a human nursing an infant, my water intake did relate to my milk production. It also made me urinate more. Now, I am very inexpierenced with chins, so this is purely speculation, but if you wanted to try...

This is Jack. He should be wearing a sign that says "Im standing in the corner of shame for running over moms shoulder and all over the living room. The dog was out and mom thought was going to be lunch!" LOL! Truth is he did run out last night while I was working on taking making his thier 2...

So my guys get out nightly for hours of playtime. I started noticing that they both were making these barely audible chittery sounds while running around, so I started looking for a sound database to identify the sound. It took me awhile to find one that worked, and after a bit of reading I...

I used old towels too! Hot water used to make colors bleed and cost alot more. These days everything is colorfast and energy efficient, so its not as much of a worry. I think hot water and vinegar would be perfect. The viegar smell is gone as soon as its dry and helps strip the dirt/smell...

Thank you!

Im not breeding, dont wanna breed, both of my chins are confirmed boys lol. Just figured you guys would know what color he is. I named him Blue because he looks blue to me. The color is not comming thru true with my camera phone. His ears are pink with a white underbelly. Thanks guys...

Thanls for the replies. Boy i cant wait till my posts dont have to wait on a mod :/. In my apartment, all my big windows face the sun, from about 8 am to 8pm. My apartment is always about 20 degrees hotter than outside, and the smaller rooms are worse! I did buy a used a/c unit, because I know...

Ok....so im super new to this. I plunged in head first and am trying to do it right. If you are curious as to how I started please see my intro :) I purchased a flying saucer and got it mounted. My mounting options seemed limited to a place where the bars crossed, but i am not confident that i...

Its getting hot! The way my apartment faces the sun, im certain amount ts way hotter I here than outside. Im picking up an ac unit tonight, but is this too hot for them untill then?!
