    Chinchilla Jungle Gym

    That's amazing! I have had some playsets in the past but they always had to be put together each time I brought them out. My chinnies would love something like that for their play time

    Air Conditioning

    Good afternoon all, Has anyone done a test as to which is more energy efficient, having a window unit or other single room unit for their chinchilla room or relying on your whole house air conditioner? I was just thinking about it today as this is the first month of the summer where we have...

    How much do you spend on your chin(s) monthly?

    Mine really depends as well. I think if I average it all out, I spend $20-40 a month. However, I was thinking it about it today because my electric company now sends me weekly estimates for my power bill and we have reached the point where it is consistently in the 100s outside. If I factored in...

    Um...I did a thing...

    IvoryBolt- I am so sorry for your loss. I know what it is like to have a sudden loss. Congratulations on the new addition though! He is beautiful! My first two chinchillas I had were in a pair so when one passed away, it took a while for me to decide what to do. Part of me wanted to go out...

    The Ferret Nation Club

    I just bought this cage and put it together two days ago. I love it so much . My previous cage was a Quality Cage Mansion. I debated for a long time about whether to keep the middle and finally decided to keep it for more floor space and safety from falling. Anyway, I ditched the ramps all...

    Getting back into chins! Currently, I have one spoiled rotten non-existent chin!

    How adorable! When do you get to take him home?

    That cage is so awesome. I'm completely jealous.

    Two Levels of Ferret Nation

    How hard is it to take out the middle shelf later?

    Kit Versus Adult Coloring

    Something I was thinking about was if chinchillas' coloring evolve as they age? If so, does anyone have pictures of what their chinchilla looked like as a kit versus as an adult? Also, does it depend on the mutation? Such as, can you tell how dark an ebony will be when it's still a kit?

    Two Levels of Ferret Nation

    Good Morning Everyone! I am going to joining the Ferret/Critter Nation Club soon. Is it better to leave the middle floor in or take it out and just put in shelves or is it just personal preference? I have a Quality Cage currently so I am use to having the whole space open but from all the...

    Hay Help

    I have had that issue in the past. My chinchillas would get picky about their hay. I would try switching to a different supplier and see if it makes a difference.

    I'm temporarily unable to live with/care for my chinchillas

    Maybe check with local pet sitters. I know that one of the local breeders in my area pet sits on the side. If you bring her your chinchillas she will take care of them for you if you are on vacation or what not. She can supply the cages or you can bring your own. Perhaps there is someone near...

    R.I.P

    I woke up today to find my poor Lily laying at the bottom of her cage not moving. Having just seen her happy several hours prior it was a giant shock. It being New Years Day I rushed her to the emergency clinic but there was nothing that could be done. I am going to miss her so much. She had...

    Fleece?

    I use aspen bedding as well. It definitely enjoys sticking to the fleece but I usually am able to vacuum the majority of it off.

    Litter Pans and Liners

    Hi all, So I finally got around to making my liners about a week or two ago now. (I borrowed a sewing machine) Before I had the liners I had started using a pyrex pie pan with some shavings. My chinnies mostly utilized that. After putting in the fleece I notice they don't mainly use that any...

    Sewing Fleece Liners by hand

    Hey everyone, I have been toying with the idea of fleece liners because I really like they way they look and it seems like it would be easier to pick up the loose hay that my chinnies love to throw around their cage. I have to try them out because previously my chinchillas tend to chew on...

    Moving

    Hey all, So I am going to be moving soon. The trip from where I live to where I am moving is about a 20 hour drive so I will be stopping one night and staying in a hotel. I have a nice travel cage for the chinnies. My plan is to put some hay and bedding in there with them and giving them water...

    Chinchillas - Wheels or saucers?

    I actually got my chinnies from the inventor of the saucer so they came with the saucer. They LOVE it. I personally couldn't picture them running on anything else. I highly recommend it, it just makes more sense to me as well.

    simply chintastic

    I just recently ordered them the playcube set with the tower. I am super excited! I can't wait to get it because I know my chinnies will love it. I will definitely post pictures once I get it, which may still be a while, but I think the wait will be completely worth it.

    should i keep this playpen??

    I have that playpen as well and I really like it. Two of them put together is just perfect. Plus it is fairly easy to store. I have chinchillas that try to escape any way possible but they have yet to try and jump over it. If the ware one is the one I'm thinking of I know my chinnies would chew...
