We have a gray standard and a FN 142. Hemi is five years old and I got him when he was a few months old. He previously lived with his brother, but his brother passed away about 1 1/2 years ago from being sick. We have everything you need to take care of him - cage, chin buddy, bowl, water...

I had two boys who are about 4 years old. Less than two weeks ago one of them passed away, from what the vet thinks was pneumonia. My other one didn't really seem to notice. I found this really strange because they were best friends. They cuddled together, played together, etc. Totally...

I came home from work tonight and went over to my boys' cage and noticed some blood. I checked both of them out and one of them and some coloration from his anus area to a little on his tail. I'm wondering if I need to take him to the emergency vet ($100 to walk in the door) or if I should...

My two boys are sooo picky with their toys. They're making it difficult to buy them toys that they will spend time on. They will only eat the bark off the wood I get them and then they leave it. I was giving them pumice, but one of their poos starting turning light colors, so I've stopped...

I have two boys and only one of them does this. I've seen Hank do it yesterday and then again today. Hank will put his butt in the air and his body will go back and forth (front to back, not side to side). He will do this for about 10 seconds and then have "Hank time" - cleaning his personal...

I currently have a cheap plastic wheel from the pet store. I did weight it down, so they can run on it. I'm looking at investing in a good wheel and have been doing lots of research. I have one boy who loves the saucer he has now, and I'm hoping my chunky one will enjoy the new wheel! So...

I'm considering making toys for my boys and possibly putting some on here if I get the hang of it. I know there are certain things that need to be done to the wood, individual toys, etc to make it chin safe. Can anyone refresh my memory on this? :hmm:

Hemi was really strange yesterday. He didn't take his treat after I cleaned his cage. I then noticed that he wasn't eating and wasn't pooping. I held him for a long time which is unusual for him. He is pretty active and does not sit still for long. Today he is much more active, but is still...

I have two boys who will be two years old this spring. I got them October 2009. Recently, one of my boys, Hemi, began burrowing. I have a FN142 and on the second floor I have fleece that is double layered that just lays on the tray. Hemi has started burrowing under the fleece. At first it...

I live in an apartment and I have two male chins. Recently I have been getting bugs in my apartment. Luckily they aren't bothering my boys. I suck them up with my handheld vacuum and flush them down the toilet. I'm a total neat FREAK, so this totally grosses me out. I was doing some...

We have two boys, Hank and Hemi that we got on Halloween. They are now 8 and 10 months old, Hank is the oldest. They get along very well now. Hank is very laid back and loves being held and loved and will crawl into my hands. Hemi will sometimes do this also, but other times will run up the...

We got this flying saucer for our two boys, but they hardly use it. They get going really fast on it and then it starts moving on them. Any ideas how we can weight it down so they will use it more? The base of the saucer is hollow. We didn't really want to get a metal saucer because we heard...

My boyfriend just taught me how to use all of this, so I'm trying to navigate my way through here! We just put up our ferrett nation, and it's so much bigger than what we thought it would be! We're excited to hopefully get our boys home this weekend!
