My chinchilla died yesterday at the age of 27. She lived a long raisin filled life.

Ten year old post that I can confirm. I started Chins & Quills way back around 2000. I had chinchillas and hedgehogs so I selfishly tailored it to my interests. It’s seemed to work! I’ve not had hedgehogs in over 15 years but I do still have the 25 year old chinchilla who inspired the original logo.

She and another Chinchilla that I "rescued" have been eating Purina Show Rabbit food for at least 10 years now. I don't know what else to offer but I do believe it really comes down to genetics. She came from Maryanne Holden in Encinitas and has a curly tail, like dwarves do, but isn't a dwarf...

Checking back in, it has been more than 4 years. I still have one of the original Chinchillas that prompted me to start Chins & Quills, she is the Beige Chinchilla in the CnQ logo. She is about 23 years old now, still running on a 20 year old Leo Braun wheel. Anyone remember this?

How is the child of my old forum doing? I still have one of the Chinchillas that I had when I started making hedgehog wheels and created Chins & Quills. She is about 19 years old now.
