Does anyone keep any of these super cute critters? I'm hoping to get some in a few months time and I'm looking for all the information I can get - there's not alot out there. The lovely lady who bred my youngest has some that have had babies, so once they are old enough to be sexed hopefully...

So does anyone keep Degus or know where I can get more info on them (Good info!). I am considering getting some. To explain, my other half suggested we get some instead of more Chinchillas when my two Malo boys pass on ( Ted has confirmed root elongation and Bill has suspected elongation). He...

Hi all, I thought I would share some recent (3 days ago) X-rays with you all. The Chin in question is Ted, he's a 2 1/2 year old dark ebony. He's always been light and kinda scraggy. He was born one of 3 but his siblings turned on him, damaging his lip and his ears. His breeder handreared him...

I noticed loads of you have funky fleece tunnels for your Chins in your cages. What I'm not sure of is the Diameter of Pipe I need. I can see a thread about 6" pipe but all I can find locally at a resonable cost is 4" pipe - would 4" be big enough? Thanks for your advice, Julia

Hi all, I need some advice again as I really don't know what to do for the best. Usually, I have some idea but on this one I'm really not sure. I have a pair of ebonies here, Bill and Ted. They are very similar in age and were weaned together. So they are just over 2 1/2 years old. I have had...

It's a great time for my little baby (6 months old) Spooky. Because of Halloween he's got lots of things with his name on it. I found a Halloween sign at a bargin store, and I managed to get the photo I wanted. Ironically, it was the first photo I took - after that he just wanted to knock it...

I thought it was about time to post a memorial for my dear Lucky, or Bug as he was affectionately nicknamed. You came into my life at a very sad time, I had lost my first Chinchilla, Leroy in suddenish circumstances - never knowing exactly what caused him to be sick. Your breeder knew I had a...

Hi everyone, I am having a really bad time at the moment and I just wanted some advice. About 4 weeks ago, one of my boys was diagnosed with a URI (Upper Respiratory Infection). It started with an eye infection, which was treated with anti-biotic drops from the vet and after a week or so he...

Hi everyone. I just wanted some opinions on my Baby's colour as I've had a few opinions from a few different people and there's no definite answer. I know it's not all that important as I don't intended to breed from him. He's a white cutie but what people can't tell me for sure is if he's a...

Hi all! I just wanted to see if anyone else out there has a Chin with as wierd eating patterns as mine. His name is Lucky and he's a 4 year old Black Velvet (Char carrier). He's been with me since he was 18 months old, so for a while now and he has the wierdest eating patterns i've ever seen...

Hi everyone... Thought I'd better re-introduce myself, I was a member ages ago but I've drifted away a little. The Uk forums are a wee bit quiet these days so I thought I'd come back and talk to you guys! I'm 29, I live near Birmingham in the Uk. I've been keeping Chins for 4 years now...
