Little Sugar Chinchillas
can anyone help me with this? i have a female that was a first time mom. the kits ended up attacking her nursesing region. bloody mess. we took the kits away and are hand feeding them. we have been treating the wounds, everything is healing fine. then we moved her back out to the barn since everything was going great. then one night after about a week or so back into the barn and she attacks her arm. all the fur is gone, and it looks like the main area of attack was around the elbow. her whole arm is swollen and looks painful. we have an appointment with the vet later on today. this is the first time we have had anything like this happen. but what would cause her to do this?
