    Chinchilla & Newborn

    Yeah, if we had another place to put them we would, but we literally have no other place for them, except the unfinished basement where I know they would get absolutely no attention. :( We love them in the office now as we get to see them and interact with them so much more than when they were...

    Chinchilla & Newborn

    I don't think the crying will bother them too much. We also have two dogs and a bird.Like I said, our house is fairly small (you can hear anything from anywhere), and the barking/squawking don't phase them in the slightest. Right now the dust is not too bad really. I only notice it after they...

    Chinchilla & Newborn

    Hey everyone. I used to post on here much more frequently. I got a teaching job and new house and have been super busy for a while. So I have been reading some, but not really posting much. We still have our chins and soon will be adding another addition to our household as I am due in November...

    How many of you have wheels or flying saucers?

    We have two flying saucers and one chin spin. They are all used equally here.

    Fleas!

    We have been having problems this year too. Dogs are on preventatives and everything, but they are really bad this year. Be sure to wash linens if the dog lays on them every three days, also every time you vacume be sure to empty the bag right away and toss it. I have heard that food grade...

    A little wet around his eye

    This happened once with one of our chins. Turned out he pulled a piece of hay out of the rack and poked himself in the eye...

    Increase in feed prices?

    I had noticed hay was more expensive. Bird food has gone up as well.

    NY/NE Show on September 28/29

    Oooh, my husband and I are excited! We couldn't make it last year because we had just gotten a puppy and had no one to watch him. This is a whole 40 minutes closer for us! We dont show, but love looking at all the chins.

    water bottle problem

    The springs seem tight enough. I have to buy a few new ones anyway, so maybe I will buy a few of the Lixit glass and see how I like them.

    water bottle problem

    In the last two months I have had 3 super pet water bottles fall off my FNs and smash on the floor. (two just last week Tuesday and Wednesday). I don't know if it is from them running on the wheel or what, but I wasn't in the room either time so I'm not sure what they were doing when it fell...

    Fire Department lets house burn

    That is just ridiculous. That should not be a law. Maybe that if you don't pay the 75 and something your house catches on fire, you get a much heftier fine, but the way I see it fire department is like police department, it is their duty to respond. That would be like you calling the police...

    Updated NY/NE show info.

    Yes. Congrats Jess!!! My fiance and I had a great time. Thank you everyone that answered our questions! I was really pleased. Before the show started my fiance and I went around and made some predictions. Basically we picked which chins we thought looked nice, and wrote the numbers down. I...

    Bird forums? And a question.

    I just re-acquired my bird after being away to college/overseas for 4 years and I have been frequenting Avian Avenue http://forums.avianavenue.com After not having her for so long, and only being in high school before the last time I had her (my mom always took care of her) I really needed...

    Should I move him back to the basement?

    Yeah, I second what everyone says about the thermometer. I have been surprised so many times by what the temp actually is. The chin room has AC and kicks on to keep the temp down (they live in the basement and we still have AC hooked up). But for curiosity sake, we had the thermometer in my room...

    Textbooks suck!

    My advice is that if it is something you are interested in having for the long run...buy a copy. If the math book is something you are going to need every day and it will be a huge pain in the backside to take it out from the library...buy it. That being said. Buy smart. Look online. try...
