Aloha!!! I sure hope litter training my girls goes this smoothly! So glad to hear your boys are doing well! A hui hou, ~ Tina ---

Aloha!!! So glad to hear little Doris is doing better!! Were you able to get her switched to a better quality food? I just love hearing that a chinnie has improved and is doing better! *hugz* to you and Doris! A hui hou, ~ Tina ---

Aloha!!! I refuse to drink water out of my tap, tastes weird... But I will through my fridge - it has a filter but no idea of "stats" on that. I can just see my dad laughing his *** off when he sees I have a filter on my faucet... He's going to ask what's wrong with my fridge filtered water...

Aloha!!! Ever seen a dog flake out on a tiled floor when it's hot out? They do it because the tile feels cool on their bellies to cool off. Pretty sure chins feel the same thing - cooler to sleep on and it pretty much stays cool, not heating up with body temperature. I'll bet anything that...

Aloha!!! I ended up going with ICOCO 6 Stage Ceramic Faucet Water Filter Tap Water Filter Water Purifier With 5 Different Faucet Connectors (Click on image to view on Amazon!) I hope that one will work? Amethyst said it needed to be, at least, a 3-stage so I guess my thinking was 6-stages...

Aloha!! So would any of these work? Member's Mark Pure Life Penta Ultra This is the one I drink personally, it has the BEST taste but would it be ok for chins?? SmartWater Or, even better for me really, something like this one? PUR Dispenser Mahalo in advance for any light you can...

Aloha!! I've read in various places online, as well as the response from more experienced owners, that you should be feeding TIMOTHY hay over Alfalfa because the alfalfa is "too hot" (the term most farmers and ranchers use), meaning too high in calories, and, thus, can lead to health problems...

Aloha!! This week's photos! Kira, 5 weeks old It's getting closer!! My breeder is making Joey & Kira's reservations this week for a mid-September arrival date! They are just making a hop to the Big Island from Oahu, less than an hour flight - I'll be there with my AC turned on max and...

Aloha! This is the one I have. I think it's the same one you are looking at Trish, but 36" high instead of just 30". I think either would work fine for supervised play time! The spacing should be ok for an adult (guessing 8+ months old) but can't say for sure, my girls aren't here for...

Aloha!! Well, I apparently lost the huge long post I'd written when I lost my internet to hurricane Madeline last night, ****! Let's see if I can re-write it. 😄 Types of tile would be granite, ceramic or porcelain. Any of them will work. You can use just 1, but I think if it were me, I'd...

Aloha!! So glad to hear Brewster is doing better!!! He's gaining weight and I can't believe he's bouncing off you and even coming up already!! I would have guessed he would take longer to start trusting you, so you are doing right! Ok, wheels... Needs to be a minimum of 14" and solid metal...

Aloha!! I agree, ceramic tile! I don't mind the bass pan idea, but they are spendy. More so than 6 sq. ft of tile from Home Depot at least! ~ Tina

I live on the rainy side in Hawai'i, our water is through catchment of rain. So filtered through lava rock and tropical plants... The only other way would be a desalination plant, but pretty sure that's on the other side of the island where it seldom rains.

Aloha! Definitely not an expert here, but no one else has replied so I'll give it a shot. :wink2: From what I've read various places, chins can stress fairly easily. Something such as a move, in your case, can "put them off feed", which means "stops eating normally" in common farm...

Aloha!! I'm pretty sure if you go to Home Depot and look at their "common" boards in 1" (which is really .75") thickness, they will be KD pine. If a helper doesn't know, look at the labels or stamps stuck to one end or the other for "KD PINE" or even check the little barcode tag usually found...

Aloha!! My weekly photos/videos from my girls. Joey @ 14 weeks And Kira @ 4 weeks:b (is there a way I can embed a video/MP4 directly into a post? https://www.instagram.com/p/BJZirLtA0_2/?taken-by=iki_kolohe_chinchillas I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!! A hui hou, Tina

Hrmph, think I got my link and my statement backwards, the carrots were about the Nature's Touch stuff. So the Science Selective is a good choice for UK owners? Just as good as Oxbow or easier to get? Or just personal preference really? Interesting which foods are available world-wide and...

Aloha! Take a look at the description and then the ingredient list Keirazak posted of what she is currently feeding. Something called "Nature's Touch".: "This delicious mix of hay, vegetables, flowers and plants..." Then look at the ingredient list... Sunflower? Dehydrated carrot...

Aloha! Oh please don't feel bad!! That wasn't my intention at all! What you've switched them too is so much better than what they were eating! I just wanted to share the best available... To make it even better, maybe just pick out the carrots? That was my main concern when reading the...

Aloha! I started to think it might be ok, but the first line "mix of hay, vegetables" turns me right off! In the ingredient list, carrots and beetroot pulp are no-no's and cane molasses is almost pure sugar. And from the picture it doesn't look like a pellet, either. I'm looking on...
