I've been working with some "extreme" lines of mosaics that are genetic. They don't throw identical patterning, but these lines have been throwing heavily marked offspring, or ones with "extreme" markings (as some call them).

I'd start hand feeding as a supplement so that all four aren't as hungry. I do this with my litters of trips to prevent fights from arising, and it works great. I've had an unbelievable number of trips and quads this year, plus a litter of quints. I feel your pain!

Congrats!! It'll be exciting to see how they turn out for you :)

Those are all great birth weights! Congrats are your beauties!

Rhonda Fiffik is in Pennsylvania. I believe she has a few chins available- you could check with her.

Very cute! They look nice and healthy :)

Awesome! I'll message you.

Becky, will you be at the ECBC WI April Field Day?

Very cute! Awesome to see that Gallus is a father! :) Looks like a black velvet and a mosaic or TOV white most likely! CONGRATS

I'm in Eau Claire (WI) and breed/show my chinchillas. I do take in occasional surrenders if people need help, but it isn't my main focus. The MCBA October show as well as the ECBC April Field Day show, are very fun shows to attend. They are both usually held at the same location in Barneveld...

The chin spins I've had in the past, I never found them to be completely quiet/silent :( Luckily my chins are now out in our A/C and heated garage, so I don't worry about them making noise too much.

If you have plenty of solid surfaces for your chin to be on if wanted, then I wouldn't see why it would be an issue! :)

I have not coated any of the pans I have purchased from companies.

You could also stop at a grocery store along the way and fill a gallon of RO water. Just a thought :)

My chins really enjoy the loofah too! I don't see where "too much of it" would pose a problem to your chin! :)

I second both of the above opinions. I would recommend a "cold turkey" switch of feed.

I use Blue Cloud for all my chins, and like it better than Blue Sparkle.

Cute! Are you keeping these guys back for show/breeding prospects?

Congrats on the new babies! They are very cute!

Hello, I am the breeder you've been chatting with. If you're wanting to not use fleece, you could look into ordering Bass Pans for the CN cage, as they are about 2 1/2 inches deep, and metal (like a "normal" pan). Personally, I think half of the double CN would suffice for a breeding pair...
