Hello! Me and my wife are looking to move to new Zealand within the next 4 years. We have two chinchillas, we love them to death. We know airlines wont allow them in the cabin, but we've heard of special airlines that cater to exotics and will ship them. We really want to move to this...

thanks guys!

We've had our chins for about 2 years now and we have recently gotten very busy. We used to be able to let our chins out almost ever night for play time, but now we are down to maybe 2 nights a week...They have the chinchilla mansion cage so they have a lot of room to jump and climb, and a lot...

Just google ceramic chinchilla bath. You can find all sorts of online stores that sell them

Does anyone else have an instagram dedicated to just their little fuzzballs? Post your instagram name! Follow mine: @thechinnybrothers

You could always invest in a window air conditioner, you can find them for around $120 at Wal-Mart. Fans don't really help with chinchillas because they do not sweat, however if for some reason the power goes out, you could turn on the over head fan to circulate the air. Another option...

He used to do it sometimes, but lately it has been getting a lot worse

So, we have two chins, and one of them (he is younger) we have had him for 6 months, and he is sweet, and friendly. It didn't used to be a problem...But now he pees all the time, everywhere. When we let him out for play time, he will be on the carpet, or in the bathroom he will pee on the tile...

Some chins will never like being held. But if you do hold them, hold them firmly against your body so they feel secure. give them a treat after being held, and tell them good boy/girl :) It's also a good idea to talk to them inside the cage, read them a book, or talk to them for a while so...

Oh wow! never would have thought of this! Thank you :D

One wheel should be fine. Caging two chinchillas together is a HUGE DEAL. Make sure you keep them out of the same room when you buy your 2nd new chinchilla. The new chin needs to get used to its surroundings. It will already be scared/anxious/nervous, and it will just worsen it by having your...

We have two chinchillas (caged together, they get along great). But one has not been able to drink from his bottle since we got him. We have been through 3 different types of bottles. He can't seem to grasp the fact that he needs to press harder for the water to come out..He is young/small, and...

I recently caged my two chinchillas together; they get a long great, and have not fought once. They are both males. One thing I’m concerned about (And I’m about to get semi graphic) The dominate chinchilla we have is constantly humping our new one, all the time. (Sometimes ejaculating on the...

Is it normal for the older chinchilla (the one we had first) to constantly hump the new one? He does it all the time, will this stop later in time?

super cute :D

Chinchillas will change over time, Some chinchillas are just content sitting and zoning out for hours at a time LOL. Don't be alarmed, theres nothing wrong with him! Just make sure he is not loosing weight, getting weak, or is not eating or drinking. Just make sure you keep taking him out as...

Oh wow! Congrats, sounds like we have a very similar situation! :D

They have separate cages, how long do you think we should wait before we cage them together? since you have experience in this

Oh wow, I guess i didn't think they would be that interactive just being introduced! That's awesome! thank you!

This is almost exactly what it looks like.
