    Dust Baths

    I put the dust through a sieve after their daily use (once a day for about half an hour or until I've seen Scrat and Gizmo roll their hearts out) and replace it after a week (during the big weekly cage-cleaning) or if they've peed in it (but they almost never do)

    The thing you Love about your chin?

    I'm still finding a lot of new things to love almost daily. The latest started yesterday. We have their cage fairly high so when we just play with them in the cage we stick our arm in and they'l crawl up and in Scrat's case jump onto our shoulders. Scrat added a new "move" yesterday where he'll...

    Ready to Rumble! :(

    Since I didn't want to start another thread about this I have a mounting question: We've had our Scrat and Gizmo for over a month now and mounting is still occurring. At first it was Scrat mounting Gizmo (even though he's noticeably smaller than Gizmo) But I figured that's because he seemed to...

    Laurie started breeding...

    yeah! A cybergoth-chin would own - maybe make it grow its own glowstick for a tail (for those extra spicey dancemoves)

    what kind of chinchilla pellets is best?

    The only ingredient is wheat - so it should be a very safe treat (I don't get any of the special kind and avoid any with eggs etc of course - so it's basically hard dried wheat) It came highly recommended as a treat by many Dutch/Belgian sites (there's a very good chin "network" of sites in...

    what kind of chinchilla pellets is best?

    I won't comment on the pellets, as being in Belgium we have different brands (never seen oxbow or mazuri here) but for treats I alternate between: Dried carob pods Dried Rosebuds Dry Spaghetti Sticks unsweetened rolled oats which they all love they're especially cute nibbling on a spaghetti stick

    Giant Monstrous Chinchillas Most Dire

    http://dai.ly/gzwcTp check around 1 minute (at work now, youtube is blocked and so is pretty much every image host) (*edit* I haven't seen any chins in-game yet, but then I don't play the game and I'm not constantly staring over my fiancee's shoulder to see if there's virtual chins on her...

    worried about gizmo

    I'm a bit worried my gizmo might have some problems Scrat's doing great in the cage playing, eating, pooping etc. Gizmo however not so. He seems a bit lustless, I don't see him eat much. But mostly I seem to have "fixed" this twice already for a few days. last time, like today, I just picked...

    Scrat (and a little bit of gizmo)

    So finally got some pics, hopefully some more and better ones soon. Don't know what scrat is, gizmo is a standard. (but he was hiding in the back of the cage the whole time)

    Giant Monstrous Chinchillas Most Dire

    The Sims Medieval *disclaimer* I have a serious dislike for the sims series. The combination of massive sales and hype coupled with me getting bored with the first game after about 2 hours and then getting bored with inventing ways for my sims to die horribly after about another two hours ...

    Are your chins tame?

    Mine are slowly getting there. 3 weeks into loving them, and during playtime yesterday Scrat would constantly crawl out of the pen (through the door) and into my fiancee's lap, on her shoulder and let himself be picked up - without much wiggling - to be put back into the pen when he would jump...

    Shy chin

    Gizmo seems to be getting a bit better again, he still spends most of his time looking sad and sleepy, but around 3am last night he seemed to be waking up and I'd have Scrat on my shoulder and Gizmo moving up to halfway my forearm :) those 2 just couldn't be more different. Also they were...
