    Blood All Over Cage?!

    I have two females, Violet and Diamond. Please read my other posts for their full description including diet, etc. To cut down to the chase, I walked into my chinchillas cage this morning and there was blood all over the top shelf. I have pictures of Violet's hind foot, which is the injured...

    Potty Training - A Stinky Business

    No, I have just one, and I placed it in the corner of the cage where the alpha chinchilla pees. Diamond just everywhere and anywhere.

    Potty Training - A Stinky Business

    Hi again! Its Rebecca back with Violet and Diamond. I am trying to potty train my two females, Violet and Diamond, and it seems to be working! At least, for one. Violet is the more intelligent one, and has caught on with the potty training, and keeps coming back to the scent. Diamond, the...

    Chinchilla humping...people?

    Honestly, I think your chinchilla just likes you. Might be puberty... but I would just relax since its not hurting him.

    Fur Chewing/Fur Biting/Barbering. Any Hope?

    Sigh. I've done far too much research on this fur chewing! Let's start from the bottom and build up, shall we? I have two female chinchillas, both who live in a Chinchilla Mansion, with not a lot of shelves, a hiding box, and a running wheel. We do not have constant chew toys out for them, we...

    Tail wagging--what does it mean?

    Tail Wagging - Your Chin Is Feeling.... Tail wagging is usually a sign of sexual excitement. Your chin just wants someone to have babies with! Its nothing to worry about, but if your chinchilla is more aggressive than usual or more excitable or just, in general, a little different, your chinnie...
