    Blood on tail

    Here are the only pictures I was able to get of them, it's very hard to see but you can tell there is blood near the tip of her tail.

    Blood on tail

    A few days ago my parents told me that they noticed 2 small drips of blood on the floor in front of Marzipan's cage, and when I cleaned her cage 3 days ago I noticed also a small blood stain on one of her wood ledges, but didn't see any injuries on her. Now today, there are dried blood spots on...

    It's not too far for regular care, a little far for emergencies though.

    Urine

    I keep noticing that my chins urine looks very dark and when dry becomes flaky? Is this normal? First pic is the dried urine on her fleece, second is on her ledge.

    Noises

    I've had Marzipan for about 4 months now, things are going swimmingly, I just wonder if anyone else has chins that are mostly silent? She hardly ever makes any kind of noise, that I've heard. Sometimes during playtime she will very softly make little squeakies for a few seconds, and my mom will...

    Vitakraft Chinchilla Cocktail

    I've had her on a pretty good treat kick, she's been loving rolled oats, and I ordered some rosebuds, and crushed rosehips, some hibiscus and also some chamomile. She's so far enjoyed trying them all, but now sometimes sticks her nose up at them (loved the hibiscus on her first try, second time...

    Kaytee Gourmet Variety Diet

    I bought a bag of Oxbow from petsmart, I wanted to get her on it asap, it was a little expensive but now I see I can get double the amount for the same price at wag.com at least. She seems to enjoy it right now while it's mixed in with a little of the old food. Also, greychins, I just now saw on...

    Help understanding my new chin.

    Does she do alright with no out of cage time? I always feel bad when I can't let Marzipan out, but I feel better knowing that not all chins get time out every day.

    Vitakraft Chinchilla Cocktail

    Any reviews on Vitakraft Chinchilla Cocktail? I've been giving it to Marzipan since the day I got her and she's crazy about it. Since I'm a new owner however I'm just making sure whenever possible that I'm not giving my sweetie anything harmful! Also they say to give them (if I remember...

    Ideas for a picky chin

    Marzipan doesn't have much interest in most of the toys that I've bought her, she never touches her pumice block, she doesn't care for her stick ball with a wooden bead inside. She likes toilet paper rolls as long as there's hay inside. She likes apple sticks. She'll sometimes play with her...

    Help understanding my new chin.

    Hey guys, in case anyone wanted to know things are going much better :D She's very comfortable climbing all over me during playtime, she loves to go up onto the top of my head lol. She's still not crazy about hands, she enjoys being pet for a while but she won't jump onto my hands to come out...

    Kaytee Gourmet Variety Diet

    Ok, I'm sure now that my gut instinct about this food was right. Thanks all! Also where do you all buy Mazuri? Do most pet stores carry it?

    Help understanding my new chin.

    Thanks guys! As to the gender deal, the employee who helped me get Marzipan said she was a girl? And I'm pretty sure the cage label said they were females, I'm just going on faith that she's a little girl lol. I try to talk to her all the time, I sit next to her cage as often as I can. She...

    Kaytee Gourmet Variety Diet

    PetSmart employee led me to this food because that's what they were feeding the chins, does anyone have anything to say about it? Do you like it? Do your chins like it? Is it good/bad for them? I feel like its not the best because of all the "goodies" in it, my Marzipan picks those out and then...

    Help understanding my new chin.

    Hi there, I'm brand new to owning a chin, I just bought my girl (Marzipan) from PetSmart on friday, 5 days ago. So far she won't let me pick her up (which I knew she probably wouldn't) but she won't let me touch her at all. She just sort of flips out if I try to lightly pet her through the...
