    Is this hay mix ok?

    With 6 chinchillas it's kinda hard buying such small bits at a time so I was wondering if this mix was ok, a guy on craigslist is selling it for horses. Timothy, Lespedezia, Brome, Orchard Grass, and some Alfalfa Or if anyone knows of a place in St. Louis to get a bale let me know!!

    Marble or porcelain

    I've been wondering, to those of you who use the marble slabs for a cooling plate, would porcelain work too, since porcelain is so dense? I was thinking about getting a couple slabs for our chins but wanted to know what you all thought.

    Wilson White

    I've been wondering about this particular chin color. Is the Wilson White just a mosaic with no gray/tan/ebony markings or is it a different mutation all together. Would breeding him to a female of solid color (other than white) produce mosaics? Thanks.
