Haha thank you for taking the time to watch my long video! ;)
Hermes is nearly 7 months old, and Apollo I am more unsure. I was told he was around 3-4 months when I got him, but he was already WAY bigger than Hermes! So, that is why I keep the wheel out now to be safe.
I do probably give them...
Hi everyone!
So both of my boys are finally living together happily, and are officially sharing one 3 level critter nation cage.
I have been constantly upgrading the cage, but decided to go ahead and do a cage tour because if I wait until it's PERFECT, I will be waiting forever…because there...
Him everyone! So I have two adorable sweet chinnie boys whom have appeared to have finally bonded. I started with joint playtime in a neutral area, but they only seemed to get along for a few minutes and then aggressive mounting, chasing, and fur pulling would start. I tried side by side cages...

Thanks in...
Hi all!
I wanted to ask in your opinion, what are the best vitamins/supplements to give chinchillas? Are these necessary/how often? What have your experiences been?
Also, what are the healthiest/best options for treats and herbs?
I want to make my chinchilla's diet as healthy and enriched as...
