Thanks for the replies. For over two years, Six and George have had a diet of timothy hay from Clean Mama's, and Mazuri pellets. I was giving them about 3-4 pellets of Animax, because I was afraid they were malnourished when I got them. I reduced the animax to 1/2-1 pellet a day as a treat...

Disclaimer: Chin has BEEN TO THE VET! Last Friday, I noticed Six seemed to be eating less. I gave him a treat, which he ate with relish, so I thought maybe he was just adjusting to the cooler weather or something. But I noticed I didn't seem many poops that looked fresh, so I removed all the...

Oh, glad to hear it! I'm not really in the market for another chin, and taking in a cute chin "temporarily" probably would backfire. No more boas, or hamster food! P*S

Any update on this chin? I think chins would get a "too much fine fur, FFF----, would not eat again" rating, but at that point it might not be much consolation to the chin :-( P*S

Well, not all people are crazy about rodents. I think of my chins as "rats with fur coats". But I think bugs are cool, too. Nobody seemed to be able to resist the photos of Six sleeping in his hammock. I don't *do* cute, and even I thought it was cute. When I had my Shar-Peis, people...

Hi, thanks to everybody who responded! I've been busy.... I had purchased some 1/2" hardware cloth and new end nippers, so I cut a piece to fit on the wire bottom and took the sharp edges off with the bench sander. It's been harder to affix the new stuff than I had anticipated. I had...

I have acquired 2 large cages secondhand for my chins. Although they were clean, I scrubbed them with bleach/dishwashing liquid, hosed them down well, and let them air for several weeks. I have removed all the plastic parts and wire ramps. I plan on adding a divider of wood to reduce the maximum...

I have some white climbing roses that I believe are "tea roses" on my property. When I got Six, I went out and clipped a few. Most seemed to have been eaten already, so I assumed they were safe. I gave him a small one, and he consumed it with relish. After suffering no side effects, several days...

Thanks to all for the warm welcome! Maybe next year we will have the chance to socialize a little; I thought it would be nice if I was a "real" person to some of the members rather than just a name on a post. Still, I did meet several very nice folks and see some awesome chins! Anyhow, I...

Yes, that was me. Thanks for posting your photos of the show, I really enjoyed them! P*S

Hi, everybody! I joined CnH about two weeks ago, but I've been reading for longer. I was actually reading CnQ when it went off the radar and it took me some time to find CnH. Anyhow, I planned on introducing myself before I went to the Port Ewan chin show, but, because it was a last...
