So I'm looking for a gate to block off part of my room during playtime for my chins. Is bar spacing of 1.75 two wide for chinchillas? Here is the gate...
That is what I was worried about actually. I don't have another Ac unit to keep any other room cool in my house. If I can't have them in the same room I won't be able to bring him home. The room they are in is huge it's the bonus room in my house so it's almost as large as a large basement. What...
I wouldn't worry about it. Often times younger chins sleep a ton because so much of their energy is being spent on growing. When I first brought home my two chins they slept so much for the first month I was terrified something was wrong with them so I emailed my breeder and posted about it here...

The humidity level in my chin room is reading at 75 rh right now. I bought three tubs of damp rid at home depot but it does not seem to be doing much. The temperature in my room ranges from 64 degrees to 68 within the day. Is this okay with the high humidity or do I need to buy a dehumidifier...
I'm so sorry for your loss I cant imagine the pain you are feeling. She was so beautiful and although her life was ended you gave her plenty of love and a very happy life and she will never be forgotten. She looked so happy. Chins know when they are loved.
So I have been wanting to adopt a chin for a long time now since before I purchased my two boys and I found an add on craigslist close enough for me to drive to. I am not planning for the new chinchilla to be able to bond with my already bonded pair and I have a separate cage prepared for him...
Both my chins get little eye crusties right after they dust bath. I use blue cloud so I don't understand why the dust bath would irritate their eyes? They literally only get them right after a dust bath. Maybe because they are both so young? Does this happen to anyone else's chins cause it has...
I live in Nc and the humidity in my room rises to 70 rh and the temp can get up to 80 degrees since my room is the largest in the house and our central air conditioning does not keep my room cool enough. Before I got my chins I bought a window unit and I keep it on 24/7 and keep my room at 68...
