    Pregnant hedgehog

    She's 99% preg She's doubled her weight in the last month Her water intake is 40% increased Her poop is now double in thickness Her eating has also doubled And now all she does is eat sleep and drink and hides. She doesn't even want to be seen by me. The light goes on she scurries back quickly...

    Is this true?

    it rains in bc lots, is that why? my chin feel hot sooner than the "guideline temps" is it cuz of humidity? should i get a dehumidifier? but basically, you are saying: every chin can be different, so dont go with just figures on a thermometer, but your own visual observations as well.... right?

    dumbest thing your chin has ever done

    lol mines done that too, that time she peed a huge puddle like 1/2 a tablespoon worth, ugh it was so gross, i thought she would stink, after about a 1/2 dozen rolls, her fur was dry, i cupped her, and sniffed, ah, she smelled clean! thank goodness... i would have panicked cuz we cannot bathe...

    Is this true?

    Can chins survive in a freezer? I mean they love it cold cuz of their dense warm fur coat.... Or would chins freeze to death in a freezer?

    Is this true?

    yes to everything, except i would not spray mist on the chins, wet chins leads to fungus problems, chins should never get wet! putting it in the freezer is a method, ive never tried it, but yes it can help if your chin is too hot, just dont FORGET about the chin, if you put it in the freezer

    CHIN'S bloated. Help please!

    full dropper? i have a question, what do you guys mean by "full dropper" how much is that? in either CC or ML? i use ovol, i was so afraid to kill my chin, i only gave her 1 drop, or about 0.5 CC.... can i give her a full syringe? its the ones they generally hand out, for metacam, they are...

    CHIN'S bloated. Help please!

    if your chin constantly shifts when resting (on a ledge or hammock or something else) it might just be gas, try those drops, theres also one called OVOL (its the same thing) but i dont know enough to say u cannot OD on it or not, but i give 0.5 cc (same as 0.5 ML) to my girl (shes about 280 g)...

    chin's have pooping schedules?

    lol hmmm that is an interesting view of why they poop less... i always assumed they eat a bite, a poop must come out, to make room for more food...

    The lovely Frida

    they look fun, but are they safe? they do take up a lot of space, and for me, in canada, for 2 of these, its coming to the same price, as a 162 critter nation ($269 for a 162) so, i opted to get them the second cage, and let them run naturally, 12 sq feet per level, 2 levels of space maybe...

    Show Off Your Critter Nations!

    Oh yes they love it, mine zooms around like a race car around the cage for 10-15 mins at a time! That extra few feet of length makes a big difference I read that chins appreciate length just as much as height Most cages are made tall vs wide cuz we, humans need our space too... So I choose to...

    chin's have pooping schedules?

    I have a question: my chins don't tend to poop during the day, like at ALL! around 8-10 am when i clean their cage (i use fleece so i know they dont poop during the day), there is no pooping, on ledges, floor etc none! at all til about 7-9 pm, when they bam, start pooping like crazy...
