So I decided to take a little video of my girl today. She's just turned 8 months, and she's grown quite a bit. She had a bit of an attitude today, and I think it's because she's so focused on trying to get under her cage when she's out playing, she doesn't like to be bothered with us. She was...

This little girl was popcorning all over the place today, so I caught a few blurry pics of her in action!

Just thought I would share a video of my girl. She's six months now, and seems happy, healthy, and social. Luna in 2013

So I was very happy today that Luna let me comb her. I had taken the comb to her a couple of times before, and she was not a big fan, and I never forced the issue. However today when I used it, she actually stopped what she was doing and held very still for it. She has made little soft noises...

So I just spent half an hour wrangling an escaped chin. I just looked away for a moment, and poof, she was gone. She was in an enclosed room, so thank goodness for that. She went underneath a wooden dresser, which is adjacent to another wooden dresser, and would not budge as much as I coaxed...

I'm wondering if this is normal staining. She's been getting regular dust baths, so I'm just worried how bad this looks. Thanks in advance.

Looking for some feedback on here. Luna seems to be adjusting very well. She seems very comfortable with me at this point, she jumps on my hands and arms, she allows me to touch her without flinching or running from me, she comes to see me at the cage door, lets me touch and hold the base of her...

We brought her home today, and she is getting used to her new cage. My son named her, and we all fell in love with her instantly. Big thank you to Kristy and ABC Chinchillas for bringing her into our lives. Sorry about the picture overload, but couldn't help it! DSC_1214.JPG by Aridan, on...

I came across this on YouTube, and I found it very interesting as I've imagined what it must be like for vets to try to examine chin teeth, and this allowed me to visualize it. It is a little graphic for those who like me may be a bit squeamish. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pvlqxU3HJ8

I have a couple of questions for all the knowledgable forum people out there. Since we'll be having a young chin joining our family, less than three months, I'd welcome your opinions on things that we may want to get her used to. I would anticipate conditioning them to certain things while they...

Hello everyone! I've posted a few notes on here, and thank you all for the information. It's been very helpful. I'm a soon-to-be chin owner, and I'm very excited. I've been researching all the things I need to know for weeks. I've started gathering supplies, and just put a deposit down on a...

Hi everyone, I'm slowly making preparations for adding a chin to our household. I was lucky enough to find a used FN142 cage locally, so I couldn't pass that up. My question now is at what age is this cage safe for a chin? I do not yet know what chin we'll be getting or how old it will be, so I...

So I recently decided that I would like to add a chin to our family. I've been doing a lot of research, and I feel confident that I have learned enough to provide a healthy and stimulating environment for a chin. I do have some questions and thought I would jump in here with my questions. Food...
