    Chins do not overeat - true or false?

    I've never had a chin over eat, but I absolutely believe that they would allow me to over treat them if given the option-- despite the fact that it is detrimental to their health... I agree with CuddleBug. If they are fed unhealthy food, I could see them becoming obese. However that's from the...

    What is/are your chin/s favorite treats?

    I have enough chinnies that the day to day favorite changes. However here is some of my consistent favorites: rosebuds, hibiscus petals, calendula blossoms, rose hips, hawthorn berries, elder berries, apple wood, wheat squares, kiwi wood, willow, elm and quite a few of mine like pumice stones as...

    What is/are your chin/s favorite treats?

    I would love to hear what your chin enjoys most. Please be specific so we can try it out too. For example, if it's wood, what type of wood? If its a flower, what type of flower. I personally keep a huge assortment of organic dried flowers, berries etc. but the hit at my house right now is...

    Any USDA Hedgehog Breeders in Michigan

    There used to be a girl, Lara, that was a USDA breeder in Southwestern Michigan. I believe she has stopped breeding. From Southeastern Michigan, the closest breeder is Millermeade Farms in Ohio (that I am aware of).

    How to attach Ryerson glass water bottle on FN cage?

    Yea, that's why I have bought them. I have been using the Super Pet glass bottles, but they are terrible when you need so many that are working. Many of them leak, it's very hard to clean the inside of the bottle and the seal in the nozzle is very hard to clean as well. I'm happy to replace...

    What color am I?

    Thank you andreya!!! I'm in love with him as well. Anyone know how to identify if he might be a recessive white? It's. Long shot, I know, but I'm curious and I've never seen one in person to compare. Thanks all :)

    What color am I?

    Yea, he could be a homo beige, I've just never seen one with quite the coloration he shows. I can't convince myself of one way or the other..

    Respiratory Infection Questions

    Thanks both of you! I will leave him be the king of his own room for a bit longer and assuming he stays healthy and all the other chinnies do, then I'll move him back in. :)

    Respiratory Infection Questions

    I have a question for everyone. So my babies have been healthy since the case one chin had with URI. However, I've never had any of my animals suffer from it previously in the years I've had chinchillas, so I'm still learning some about this illness. It seems like, from what I've read, that...

    Not Buyer Beware, but Seller Beware

    Wow!! Sounds like everyone suffers similar issues!! I too have had someone who was going to adopt a pet only girl express interest to come in and see all the others. I obliged. Then they started asking me... is this one for sale? How about that one? Are you sure I can't have these 2? I was...

    Not Buyer Beware, but Seller Beware

    I've been going through a horrific experience with a buyer and thought that maybe it would be good for us to air our bad buyer experiences... Anyone else have a crappy time with someone? What happened?
