    Chin color mutations

    I know it's difficult/impossible to tell what mutations a chin is from look alone, but was wondering if anyone had some guesses as to this female I got last night. She's originally from someone who breeds, but the last owner that I got her from can't remember the breeder or what mutation she is.

    Kit Pics

    So hard to take pics of these kits, if they'd just stop moving around, but I think I got some good ones.

    Weights after birth

    Just want to make sure these are healthy gains for the kits, and losses for the mother. More so worried about the mother's loss than anything else. Mother Kit 1 Kit 2 7/31/13 672g 7/31/13 Born - 50g 7/31/13 Born - 50g 8/2/13 663g...

    Newborn kits - need names

    Just looking for some name ideas and showing off, little ones are only about 11hrs old. Both appear to be sexed as females, born to a pink white mosaic male and a standard gray female. Don't want to call their colors until they're a bit older, but open to opinions on what they may be, as I'm...

    Average weight of new kits.

    I know that there's no way it'll be even close to an exact science. However, my female standard gray I'm 99% confident is pregnant. Since 4/4 her weight has gone from 556g to 706g and her nipples are lengthening considerably. I was wondering if there was a rought estimate on how many kits she...

    Only My Weirdos?

    Just wondering if anyone else has seen a bonded pair do this, or if it's just my weirdos being weird?

    Hammock

    My wife and I just made a fleece hammock for our chins. However, I was wondering how other people attach it to their cages. I'm aware it's a hammock, not necessarily sturdy with the swinging, but the amount of swinging ours is giving seems to be freaking my chins out, and I'm worried it will...

    Shuddering

    Just a few minutes ago, my chin was standing in one spot, and shuddering a little bit, but I can't figure out why. She did it for a solid 2mins, and when she finally moved I went over to inspect and could see no cause for it on the cage floor or on her. Looking for possible causes of this...

    Free feed or scheduled?

    My chins both have a tendency to eat half of their food and then start dumping some. Then when they run out in the middle of the night they try to pick it out of their bedding through the wire bottom, and stand by their bowls until I wake up to give them more. I was wondering if this was...

    Firm Belly

    I've had a female for about 2 months now, and a male for about a month and a half. Within the past two weeks I've noticed that her belly is swelling and getting firm compared to his. I was wondering what this is indicative of?

    Hello

    Hi, we are Jordan and Heather. We have two chins, Quinn and Gin. Quinn is our male, a pink white mosaic, and Gin is our female, is a rather dark standard grey. We're currently trying to breed them. Quinn is our climber and talker. Just before writing this he decided to balance on his open cage...

    Female became reclusive

    Hi, new poster so hope this is the right place. I have a pink white mosaic and the dam is a standard grey. They just got put in the same cage together for the first time about 5 days ago, and for the first few days both would come out for play time, but for the last 2, my standard grey has...
