Hello everyone,
Sadly I have to rehome my two girls Nyx and Nova. Being a working student at my local barn as well as having lots of schoolwork has made it very difficult to give them the time and attention they need.
Nova is 2 and Nyx is 2 1/2. Just like many chinnes they love to run around...
Hi guys,
I know this isn't a selling app or anything but I have a really nice custom made wooden chinchilla cage for sale, and I thought the best place to get a good owner for it would be here.
It measures 42.5 by 19 by 51. It has wire grids on the top and doors for ventilation. It has a...
Hello all,
Sorry I am posting so much, I have a lot of questions! So I know chinchillas can't get wet, but what exactly does that mean? Should I completely freaked out if their water bottle drips on their heads? What happens if the granite slabs I freeze in the refrigerator for them to sit on...
Thank you so much. That makes so much sense. I do have a 16-inch aluminum wheel in their cage, but their old owner was using those Kaytee silent spinner wheels that were more like 13 in, and Nyx hasn't really figured out that she can run on it yet.
Thank you for all the advice, I think I will...
Hello all,
Thank you for all your help with my previous problems. The chins are eating and drinking fine now, and the brownish pee was from a bark toy that I gave one of them.
As you may know, they are not bonded but they have lived next to each other their whole lives in separate cages...
Thank you so much for all your help!! I recently gave her a toy that had lots of bark on it that she has been chewing so that explains the brownish color. I'm so glad to hear that she's not sick or anything!
Thank you so much! I think a big part of it was just stress. I held off on play time like you said for a bit and now they are eating and drinking better. I also switch to bottled water instead of tap which helped. But as soon as this problem ended, I think a new one has arrived! One of my...
My chinchilla happened to pee on a tupperware container today and I saw that the color was very brownish. Is this something to be concerned about? This is the only time I really seen her pee, she's been drinking water and eating so I'm not concerned about if she's peeing. I just don't know if...
Hello all,
On Wednesday I got two chinchillas, I am a first-time owner. I am stressing out because I don't think my chinchillas are eating and drinking!
I've seen one of them, Nova, drink from her water bottle once, and I've occasionally seen her eat her hay. I offered her pellets once and she...
Hello,
I am trying to find a new cage for my Hedgehog Noe. I could a woodworker who makes structures with upcycled wood. I I'm planning to get a 4x2 ft cage from him, with an open-top and a mesh wire window covering the front long side of the cage. The wood isn't polished or anything, but it...
I believe that anyone with the right knowledge and dedication to an animal can make a great owner no matter what age they are. Please do not assume I am incapable because of my age.
I think I could make a great owner for her after Covid 19 settles down. I currently have a young hedgehog and have had past experience with chinchillas. I am able to devote lots of time to her, especially because she is a single instead of a pair.
