What do you all use for your hay? I saw these awesome wire things at Petsmart in the cages and the chins get the hay out of it... but they dont sell them! I would like to get something I could hang on the wall so it doesnt get all mixed in the bedding!

Alrighty!!! I have one brand new 10 oz Steel Bird Coop Cup with attachment piece. - $2 I have one brand new 8 oz Glass Lixit bottle $4 and then 3 used Glass Lixit bottle for $3 each. I also have 20 oz of Crushed Rose Hips. I will sell $1 per oz or $15 for all 20 oz. Please PM with your zip...

As I am down to only one chin I have decided to sell off some of my stock! I have 40 oz worth of sticks, whirlies, and coins. They are mixtures of Elm, Mulberry, Willow and I think some Apple is in there too... I lost all my stickers so I don't know which is which, so I just put them all...

Just had to make one of those selfless decisions that you never want to make. I told the vet it was time to let Skylar go. This afternoon she started to prolapse her intestines so she went back to the vet. A large portion was already dead. He did find healthy intestines and put them back in, but...

Can I please just get a break!!! About to go to the aftercare emergency room with Skylar. After days of doing wonderfully, I find blood in the cage. She is bleeding from her booty. All I can think of is that there was some sort of blockage and she tore something, is trying to prolapse, heck I...

Lordy. We had good solid poops for several days but now it is straight diarrhea!!! Like crazy diarrhea!!! Starting with a little bit of really burned up toast, but what else do I need to do? She is still being handfed and eats VERY LITTLE on her own!

LORD ALMIGHTY THERE IS POOP IN SKYLAR'S CAGE! Took 10 days, but it is there! Now, one was a large one with some smaller ones attached. They are a little wet, not too wet, but they have a goo over them. Should this be kind of normal since she hasn't gone in so long??? We still are handfeeding...

Does anyone have a few timothy or alfalfa cubes they would be willing to send me. I will obviously pay you. I don't need a lot so I hate to order from somewhere and pay crazy prices. I have a chin who won't eat and the vet as well as someone here suggest I try cubes of hay instead of loose hay...

I have a chin who hasn't been eating since a surgery and Baytril. I've been handfeeding. She hasn't pooped in a week! I'm not getting near the amount of food in her that she needs, but I am trying! On Friday xrays showed gas pockets so I started gas drops and exercise time. Yesterday I started...

Took Skylar back to the vet today because she still isn't pooping. They gave her some fluids and did an x-ray. I'm attaching it. He said she has gas pockets, but everything else seems okay. She makes me want to pull out my hair! I got gas drops and plan on doing .3 every 2-3 hours. Does that...

You can read my threads in the health section to get caught up. Skylar had to have her tail amputated due to an infection from a wound. She is healing nicely, but after being on two antibiotics, she quit eating and hasn't pooped in days. Took her to the vet yesterday and he said she isn't...

Okay, so we all know how we feel about Baytril! You can see posts about Skylar's tail injury in this forum. Short story, she cut the tip, for almost two months I couldn't get it to heal. Got infected so he amputated half of the tail. By the 5th day, the tail was not healing and looked bad so he...

Okay, so I get my bedding from a local feed store. It is called Clifton Pine Shavings... its only like $8 for this giant thing of it... They get it in and it is gone FAST! I happened to call today to see if they had any in stock and she said it just came in and they had 275 bales of it... it...

I have two cages left I need to sell. (L x H x D) Shipping cage 12.25" x 9.5" x 9.5" - $25 3 cage run that I only used as maternity cages 48" x 12.25" x 21.25 - $50 I will gladly ship the shipping cage, but the 3 hole run is pick up only.

Please see my original thread for more detail. This has been going on too long!! http://chins-n-hedgies.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39441 Do any of you have advice on things to help heal a wound? Can you use some sort of liquid bandaide? I take Skylar back to the vet Tuesday at 2pm and I...

Wow! Got up this morning to find blood all over one of my cages. Like it looked like a murder crime scene! One of my chins either got her tail stuck or she bit it! I brought her into the vet as this was one I just couldn't patch up at home. She had to shave her tail down to really get to it...

Hey! It has been a LONG time since I've been on here. But when you have a question, you come back to the best eh! I have a chin who has had soft poo for weeks now. I had a fecal done and they found nothing. I've been giving a probiotic and nothing. He DID cut his lip right below his nose, but...

Ugh, I am trying to make myself let go of some of my chins. I hate this! I've been a chin owner for 10 years and I just dont have the time to give them the attention they deserve. All the dust is getting to me and my allergies too, so I am trying to find pet homes for a few of the ones I've...

I got some updated pics of two of my babies!!! These are brothers that went to a pet home. They are growing beautifully!

Z1 was born yesterday and he weighed in at 78g! I haven't ever had one that big born!!! I was sure she had two or three kits in there because she was huge... but nope, instead I got one monster sized kit!!! Z1 is a violet ec male! This is the kit that Atty created just a few weeks before he...
