    Help, think my chin has a fungus

    I have a 4 year old chinchilla and a month ago I bought her a baby for company. After a few initial squabbles they're now happy together from what I can see and hear. However last night I noticed the baby suddenly has a tiny bald spot below one eye and all around her nose and whiskers. Her...

    Towel in cage liners

    Has anybody had any success with putting a towel loose in the cage tray with a liner over it? By that I mean you'd cut the towel to fit the base, then make the fleece liner so it slides over the tray like a pillowcase, effectively trapping the towel layer inside out of reach. Has anyone tried...
