So I've had Nemo for 4 years and lately he is not himself anymore. Clue 1: He changed his favorite sleeping spot. Clue 2: He is a big one and he tried to squeez underneath the coffee table and the couch during play time, they are only about 2 inches high and he just stays down there the whole...

So I bought more herbs for my boys and they love them all. And now I have rosehips, goji berries, rosebuds, chamomiles and oat flakes. I can only give them one kind each day?

So, I was being creative today, and I made these hay cookies and hay sticks here they are, and feel free to judge, or give suggestions. I have to let them dry and then give them to my boys, see if they like them. So, this is how I made them, I need variety kind of hay, whatever kind of herbs...

Just want to make sure, so I can "steal" the right info from our forum. As what I said before, I joined a Chinese forum to help people there with Chin problems. And this is from one of the threads there. This is the chin's mouth...

My bf just made a stand for our quality cage cage. And now the door is pretty high up. I used to put a box infront of the cage and my chin would just jump on the box then jump back into his cage when he's ready after play time. But now since its so high, there is no way he can jump in by...

I just got an emergency business trip to hamburg. Have some free time, so I wonder if there is a store I can go to and shop for some supplies, maybe they have something different and interesting? Anybody knows if there is one? Oh, and I know they have curly hair chins, I was hoping to see one...

Happy new year everybody!!! So I have never heard of chinchilla health insurance, I guess it doesn't excist???

I give my chin Nemo a dust bath two times a week during winter, since the air is dry is winter and every other day in summer time. Last night when I pet him, I found a big fur clump on his back right above his leg, its a pretty big one and its really close to his skin. I don't think I can make...

I remember reading a thread on here (or was it her own website?)posted by this lady saying she found this outdoor fireplace that is small enough to make a chin house/playhouse out of it, the top of it is small enough for one chin to go through. And she posted a pic of it in her cage, the belly...

I am a chin owner for 3 years, my first chin never bite, and I read chins normally don't bite unless he/she is doing a self defence. I got this 11 week old new chin a week ago, I am still trying to get him settled, and when I talk to him last night, I put my finger near his face to let him smell...
