The carrier u listed is perfect. The...

    Is my chinchilla in pain?!

    One of my chins do this when she gets tired after playtime. But id definatly have her checked out. If everything seems fine from the vet she may just be really tired or over heated from play time

    Yellow spit up?

    Leg injury

    My chin cut her leg a while back and thank god their weren't any bone or muscle injuries but she was limping long after the inuring healed. We found she had just lost her confidence and was favoring the leg. Give it time and do some physical therapy to get the muscles working again. Hold him and...

    Help my chinchilla is on pain how do you trim the teeth he can’t eat he’s hungry but he can’t eat I can’t find a dr

    From one who has a chin with malo, if his teeth are overgrown he defiantly needs a vet with experience. I would call every vet in the state if u can and see if any of them offer chinchilla trimming. Unfortunaly if u cant its only humane to put him down as he is starving himself rn.

You just have to find a blend that ur chin likes. My picky one will only eat oat hay so I mix it with western timothy (my other...

    Tilly may have an eye infection

    my chinchilla has the same problem,but we know she has malocclusion so when we that happen we schedule an appointment to trim her teeth. I would take her to the vet asap to check for overgrown teeth. It could be just a simple eye infection, caused by irritation from hay or dust, or something...

    Living in two places?

    changing locations like that, that often will just cause her unnesscary stress. My opinion would be to have her stay with ur mom and visit as often as u can, and getting her a companion definalty wouldn't hurt the situation
