I've had Choncho for 11 years now. I don't know anything about his breed. Choncho was aprox. 6 months old when we got him from a local feed store in our town. We got Choncho for my daughter in her senior year of high school, she had to do research and present the pro's and con's of having a...

Wow, You have been through a whole lot. I hope your chin is doing better today. That would be very stressful even for me. !

Love this cage!

I read somewhere on here that if I was going to make my own ledges for my chin that I need to use untreated kiln dried pine. I went to the local lumber store and they told me they only carry Untreated air dried pine and green pine. Is there any chance I can use air dried pine without hurting...

I think I'm going to go in and try to talk to the owner. It makes me so sad.

I thought he was spoiled...then I found this forum and I was WAY off! hehe, Glad I got here. He'll be all set up by this weekend.

I went to the feed store in town today ( I live in a very small town) It's the only feed store around and they have chinchillas in there, this is where my husband bought our chinchilla....but he was the first one they had for sell, now they have a FN cage and anywhere from 2-4 chins in there...

I can't seem to find Oxbow in my town, I even asked at the feed store in town today and they only carry Kaytee products, including the food, it's all I've given my little guy, but I hate the consistency of the Kaytee hay. It's hard and pokie!

Oh. of course.....I took Cuddlebugs advice and while Choncho was playing I cleaned out his cage, turned it on its side and cut the bottom out. ok, well, half of the bottom, then opened it and put his wheel in. I also took out one of the ramps. I am going this weekend to the lumber store to get...

I love it, Going to have to go look at some tiles, Thanks for showing us how great it works!

I don't give my chin his bath in his cage, I let him have it during play time. Is that bad? Now I'm wondering.

He's never chewed on it, but I'll look into getting some fleece on there instead, His cage is actually behind the couch in the livingroom, I only put it over the top level because that's where his hammock is.

Ok, now I HAVE to go take a look. hehehe

When I first got my chin he had a plastic one and it leaked, I got a new plastic one and he chewed through it, I went through about a dozen plastic bottles before I realized they even made glass ones. UGH, sometimes I'm just slow. LOL

That is good to know, because its so bright in the morning by his cage, I always put a dark sheet over it and then take it off when I get home, he seems to like it, as soon as I cover his cage he jumps into his hammock to sleep

Wonder if I could get my hubby to make some of these for me.....

Love this....so cute! and funny!

Oh gosh, Ok, will take off the ramps asap. would it work if I put fleece over the ramps? I'll take a look tomorrow and see if I can get the bottom to come off, Thanks for the input!

So I finally got my sweet Choncho a Chin Spin and I was so excited to get home from work and put it in his cage....it wont fit in the door! Now what? Any ideas? there are three levels and three openings but all three are too small for me to fit the wheel inside the cage. I took some pictures...

I just checked out the simplychintastic.com website...Oh my gosh, I am going to be in so much trouble. I fell in love with almost everything I saw on there! Thanks for sharing it.
