    Introductions

    So a while back I tried introducing my chins and wasn't very successful. Since then, I had kind of given up.. I'd put them in the bathroom together and watch for how they reacted towards each other. I picked a neutral ground, but they weren't very nice. I don't know if I'm just overreacting or...

    Play Time!

    It's funny, I never realized how much more fun Charlee would have if I added a few things to jump on, crawl under, tunnel through, or jump over to her play time. But right now I'm watching her run around like a crazy woman just having a blast! She keeps wanting to jump out of her playpen though...

    Behavior...

    Hi, I got my first chin about 3 weeks ago and she has really started to warm up to me. The previous owner thinks the chin is pregnant and should be due some time in late June or July. Recently, her behavior has changed just a little. I realized if you put your arm by her she just climbs over it...

    Fur Chewing

    Foot Thumping

    I just got my chinchilla today and on the bottom of her cage she thumps her feet. When she moves from one side of the cage to the other its a lighter thump but when she sits in one spot she thumps her back legs. I went over to her and she sat up somewhat on her back legs and I backed away...
