Hi everyone,
I've had my two chins for almost 2 years now- I got my standard grey chin, Harlow, first, and a few months later I got my beige/white chin, Sienna.
I always handled Harlow a lot from the get go. She loves the attention and enjoys being handled in moderation.
Sienna was always more skiddish, so I've handled her far less so I don't stress her out.
I've noticed that I am not allergic to Harlow and I break into itchy hives within 60 seconds of holding Sienna.
Her nails are definitely a lot sharper so I'm sure that has something to do with it, but I can't imagine that's the only reason.
They live in the same cage, eat the same foods, sleep together (sooo cute!), and bathe the same way!
If anyone has ever encountered this, or if anyone has any ideas/suggestions, please share!
