    Chinchilla fight

    Hi again! So recently I adopted a new chin named Ivy, she's about a year old and is much bigger than my old chin Zoey. I tried to get them to get along during playtime but instantly it turned into serious fighting, and my old chin Zoey has a scratch on her nose now. I'm wondering, does this mean...

    Safe air fresheners for chins?

    So I asked this question on the chinchilla subreddit, and I got an answer saying soy candles and simmering potpourri, are these safe and not going to irritate my chin's nose? Any recommendations are helpful! Thanks
