Hi guys! I have a big question for you today. I was not quite sure in which forum to post, so move my post if I got the wrong one. Let me explain the context first. I have a female that used to be breeding. I introduced her to a male a couple years ago and it went fine, they had a litter...

I'm getting worried about 2 kits I have here. They were born on December 11th, so they'll be 9 weeks old in a couple days. They are from a first time mom, the first week was difficult but then they gained weight pretty fast. Up to the end of January. BB1 BB2 166g 234g...

I'm going to the vet with one of my pets, but I still wanna have your thoughts about it. My Zori is now 9 years old, she's weighted 528g for as long as I can remember. I eventually stopped weighing her often cause she'd act as usual, eat as usual and poop as usual and weight the same 528g...

I bought a mag during my last trip in US and I'd like to do one of the reciepes. However, there's a mesure I don't understand cause we don't use it in Quebec: what's a quart? 1 quart, 2 quarts ? How many millilitres is that? For exemple they mention use one quart of this for 2 quarts of that...

I love the charcoal mutation and I've known Claire's website for a loooong time. :nod: Are there any breeders in the US that breed charcoal?

My female has been stuck at 1050g for 8 days and then gained weight and is now at 1070g since January 1st. I can hardly feel the kits as she's got a temper theses days...... She didn't have a problem with her previous litter, but I'm getting worried for this one. I was planning on taking her...

Anyone knows what's going on with Pet Product By Nature? I tried her website and it doesn't work, and I tried emailing her and the email comes back to me with an error message. I haven't been here in a while so I'm sorry if the question was asked before. I know Barbi started selling only...

I've seen toys made from banana leaves. Can't find them in any toxic or non toxic list. What do you think?

I'm giving one of my nursing female cranberry juice 50/50 with water as well as a water bottle and I am getting worried about the quantity she's drinking. I almost fill completely a 8oz edstrom bottle and she'll drink it all in one day. She barely touches her water bottle, only when there's no...

Hi guys! I'm looking for new water bottles and I had bad experiences with bottles that don't have edstrom type valves. So I really something like that. On that site there are few: http://www.mortonjones.com/detail.php?product_code=328 But the plastic looks cheap.... Have any one of you...

When I look at pictures from brown velvet I find so many different shades. I wanted to know what are your criteria to form a pair that will end up end producing the darkest brown velvet. Do you find that the black velvet that darkens early in life will produce darker brown velvet? I've seen...

Do you consider everything born from an ebony a carrier? Yesterday I got 2 standards out of a beige mom and a medium eb dad. Lucky me, I was crossing my fingers for tans..... :wacko:

I have a very technical question. We say that conifer in general are bad for chins because of the *blank* (carbolic acid?) they contain. However, when we talk about PINE, if kiln dry, this *blank* that I can't quite remember the name, completely dries off and the wood is now safe for chins...

You didn't live long but I still loved you with all my heart. I've waited for you for so long and now you leave me too fast.... Sleep peacefully between the roots of an appletree, warm in the sun. Goodbye sweet little fluffy baby boy... I'll miss you much.... :cry4:

4 days old babies tired after a bit of running around. Aren't they cute!

I was wondering if we could show a chin if we are not registered breeders? I am a mcba breeder but I didn't register as a breeder.

Gosh I've waited for too long! The first breeding pair I bought haven't had any kits in well over a year, so I got around to buy another breeding pair. The female, Big Mama (:laughitup:) has been putting on weight a lot and she'll deliver pretty soon I think. She was 820g when she arrived...

I thought about it often but I still do wonder.... Do you think that a female's behavior has a great impact on her kits behavior? Mostly towards humans I mean. I have this mean female that is most probably pregnant and I really worry about the behavior the kits will learn from her. I...

I got 7 chinchillas (plus 2 rescues) here, and among them 2 breeding pairs. My last female got here mid April with her male from the Ryseron. She's just gorgeous, won section champ and reserve section champ this year. But her personality is just HORRIBLE. As I don't have lots of chins...

Hi guys! It's a long time I haven't posted here! I got this rescue that lost 60g when he moved from his previous home to here. He's stabilized at 485g for a while now, like 4 weeks, but he just won't gain his weight back! He eats well (Oxbow), as he's not loosing any weight. He drinks well...
