That is good news. You will soon learn they are really smart. Give us some pictures soon. :) Maybe you can look at other food maker brand. My chin is 8 this year I can't imagine him without his foods. I feed that brand you posted too and my chin loves it. Chins are sensitive to temperature and...

@Skiklutz for young chins feed alfalfa hay. Suggest you mix in a diet of alfalfa in the hay stack ASAP. The food will be needed to wear down their tooth as well as for a balanced diet. You could add grinding options for tooth care of your chinchillas with grinding stones, apple sticks etc.

Hi Tilly, I came across your story and would like ask if the doctors said anything on how gizmo gone blind suddenly? What is the cause? Could it be again overgrown tooth reclining into eye socket area? Little seizures if possible could you record as sound or upload as a short .mp3 recording Mine...

@JamaisVu Great, I was about to tell you switch to Timothy 1st cuts. If it is available. Hah such happy scene seeing both chinnies rush for hay like it's a sale

Greetings. Hi there not sure why is oats being fed? Please provide them regular chinchilla pet food.... Okay yes use fresh pine and wood shavings. Do not use paper pallet those commonly used for cat beddings. Paper material have a paper powdery effect and it can be inhaled by your chin and...

@debo326 hows the situation now? Have you tried this method? chin tooth grinding video view from outside chinchilla tooth grinding view from inside cage

So sweet "they were sitting on a Hide together. " 😌 "One of my Chinchilla's has brownish pee " - Like human, this is sign of heat, chin is not drinking enough.... New home from where I got my chin knowledge, you don't want to touch them in day 1 or 2. Leave them to sit for at least a day to...

Our choice of reusable food Sealers, works on most commonly seen food bags. Just slot in once you opened packet to retain its smell and freshness.

Great topic! Mine will come onto the human sofa once in a while and since there is a big tv playing he does stop there and watch. No activity, just watch. I noticed he doesn't like news, he likes football where the ball is seen kicked around the field. He likes animal channels. These channels...

Usually chins like to stay dry so I guess you do have a unique problem. It is not a healthy habit and I not heard about this as well. Consider change the dust bath brand and type. Which are you using now? I might go as far as putting a dust bath container into his cage. And see if it helps...

For teeth issues. I am always very careful. Because a handful of squirrels at the squirrel forum died to this problem. And I have read that chins also do have tooth problems in general.... For the chin I use grinding stone. Those sold at pet shop that is meant for the chin to grind their tooth...

Yes its true Amethyst I am at a place where it is high in humidity. Oh i better edit it out to location specific. Thanks for the mention! Well I mean pellet form packaged chin food. Kinda like what comes out from most commercially available brands like Mazuri and other chin food makers? Ya...

Hmm yep if you scroll alittle bit up you would see age mentioned? Nope we look at ours and others and we think ours is little bit on the fat side? Not sure how he manages but he gets tons of weekly play time, he gets his own army of soft toys for hugging and wrestling shows. =\ Oh ya back to...

Try my way. My chin doesn't want to eat his hays either. Once i practice these and keeps hay sealed for freshness. By protecting the bag with food seals, and keeping the 'fresh cut' smell in tact. My chin now eats up his hay faster. Within 3 days i have to do hay refill. Because using this...

Have to disagree: Hay left with open holes they lose their smell and lose their freshness. Your chins won't want them once the freshness is gone and lost. Have you seen how fresh hay look and smell compared to their older batch? Notice their color and smells are quite different. And guess which...
