I recently bought three new wooden shelves and a wooden ladder for my chinchilla. I bought these items from ebay and they are made out of 100% kiln dried pine. After placing the shelves and ladder in my chinchilla's cage, and after he ran around on them, he began itching and biting at his fur. Besides itching and biting at his fur he went to the bottom of the cage, which is wire bottom, and he began jumping around off the cage walls like crazy and rolling on the ground. All of this behavior is abnormal. I just want to know if the shelves could be the cause of his itching, and if so is there anything i can do in order fix this itching problem. I'm not sure if it is the oil on the shelves or another factor, i already cleaned off the shelves with water. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
