    Blood...

    Yes, they do bleed quite a bit when they have even a small crack on their feet, I woke up one morning and thought I walked into a murder scene. Searching them all over for any injuries only to find a small cut on his feet. I just cleaned it up with some antibacterial solution and applied bag...

    Is this bar spacing two wide for a chinchilla

    I had a 1.5" spacing dog pen before, my smaller chin who weighed about 550g then walk straight through it like there was nothing, it was so funny.

    What the heck is this?

    Oh, my girl does that to my hubby all the time, it is so so cute to watch, she'd walk into his fingers and cuddle them like the video, then sort of back away and walk into them again, absolutely adorable, been wondering what it meant. Thanks Dawn.

    Tradition no longer being made?!

    Is Brytin exactly the same as tradition? Just re packed? Cause on the website they had Hubbard life and brytin as separate feeds, I am starting my chins on brytin, just want to be sure it's a good enough feed for them.

    Brytin or manna pro sho

    i am wanting to change feeds, since all my chins have lost weight, some more than others, they've all been to the vet with xrays, fecals and bloodwork, everything came back normal. They are currently on mazuri, who changed their formula recently to half/half Timmy/alfalfa based. I am starting to...

    Fighting after a vet visit

    Hi everyone, just an update on my girls re intro, ThEY ARE Friends again!!! I dabbed some vanilla on them and took them out for a car ride. Scrubbed their cage real good when I got home and set a dust bath inside. Muffin obviously still remembers the incident cause she refused to get into the...

    Fighting after a vet visit

    Thank you Tunes for the advice, I will remember it if I have to take it to that step, trimming whiskers to me while it won't hurt the chin physically, I think they might feel upset inside, and cage in cage method is quite stressful too, while the success rate is high, the chin stuck inside the...

    Fighting after a vet visit

    Thank you Stacie for your help, Toffee has been eating less since I moved her into the temp cage, all she wanted was to get out, it's quite upsetting to see. So I am going to block off the hole in the middle of their cage and let them live on a level each, and I am planning to alternate them...

    Fighting after a vet visit

    What were your chins reaction when they met up in tHe carrier? Stacie? Were the chins you introduced totally new to each other? Did you do cage by cage, playtime prior to the car ride. What happened when you introduced them to their new home? Did they just stay calm or was there still a lot of...

    Fighting after a vet visit

    Should I dab their noses and tails with vanilla then take them for a car ride? What happens after you take them home? Cause they use to live together, is it safe to put them back together?

    Fighting after a vet visit

    Didn't go too well tonight, I didn't use the vanilla cause toffees nose was a bit red from her trying to get out of the carrier last night. She kept on sticking her nose out of the air hole. So I rubbed muffin in bedding, then bought them to a neutral playground, put the shared dust bath...

    Fighting after a vet visit

    Thanks Tunes, I'll go get some vanilla flavouring and try out tonight, should this be done in a neutral playground or can I just put them both back into the cage? poor toffee, she hates lliving in the small temp cage, I was watching her till 4am thru the web cam from my bed, she was trying to...

    Fighting after a vet visit

    So this morning I took Muffin to the vet for a checkup, she's been gradually losing weight, from 720g in 2013 to 612g now, they didn't find anything, did full bloodwork, X-ray, skull X-rays and ultrasound, everything came back normal. Which is good but not so good, the vet suggested that I put...
