Looking for a female chin, 4 years and under that typically gets along with other chins. Not picky about mutation, but preferred in the Northern MA/Southern NH area.

Some of you might remember Balthazar the ringworm chin that I adopted from my work. The ringworm had proven very tough and it is only recently that he has appeared totally clear. Long story short, I live in New England and there is no ac in his quarantine room. We are experiencing a heatvwave...

The chinchilla I adopted from my work is doing amazing. I have to set up a (hopefully) final vet appointment for next week, then hopefully he will be cleared to come downstairs. An early picture of him, when it was bad but not severe: More recent: This week: And a video...pardon my...

I found the DIY thread and decided to try some out. So far I made this for Angel(along with a cuddle buddy), and a second one for funsies. She actually seems to like it, so I'm happy. And mildly addicted...

RIP sweet girl. I'm so sorry I couldn't save you. Your sister and I can't accept that your're gone. I miss you sitting on my arm and grooming my face, and the way you would always beg for attention and treats. You had the most amazing personality and were so tolerant of everyone and everything...

Demon, one of my chinnchillas that I've had for a while, is acting off. For the last two days she's been kind of quiet. Normally Demon will come to me, but not let me pick her up easily. Yesterday she jumped out of her cage and I picked her up fairly easily then held her for a few minutes...

Just went in to feed/water and scritch Angel and Demon. I open the top door of my ferret nation, Demon gets really excited. He runs straight towards me and flings himself out of the cage. I make a grab for him but miss. He lands on the floor, shakes himself and tries to run off. I snagged him...

I work at a petstore, and we sell chinchillas. I have a pair myself, had them for 5 years and am always lurking on this site although I don't post frequently. We currently have a chinchilla with a severe case of ringworm. The vet that my work uses(which does not specialize in exotics, and...

So I've been making fleece cuddle buddies and toss toys(basically just smaller cuddle buddies) for my little brats and they seem to really like them. I plan on selling them when I get better at sewing/when I get prettier fleece. For now, though, Angel & Demon are crash testing them. I took some...

A little while ago I was playing with my chinnies & giving them their nightly treat of oats. They get extremely lovey after, grooming me and sitting on me, basically being adorable little fluffballs. My mother came over and Demon started grooming her, then stopped and stared at her for a minute...

I know that one treat that is recommended is shredded wheat- but what about puffed wheat? The reason I ask is that i don't normally buy shredded wheat, but puffed is part of my rats' diet. Thanks in advance.

But I am getting SO frustrated with them. As I've mentioned in the past, my little girl is THE epitome of evil in chinchilla form. I got the Bass pans because I was tired of tons of shavings all over the floor. At first, it was amazing. Then my little Angel seemed to get bored with not dumping...

I just ordered the Bass pans after 3 1/2 years of vacuuming bedding and poo off the floor around my FN cage. :hair: I figured it might be a good time to try out the whole fleece cage liner while I'm at it. I'm not expecting it to be amazing, but I am hopeful. I was wondering what type of fleece...

So, after reading through this forum and realizing that the food I had been feeding was less than ideal. I had posted about my girl, Angel, being a picky little brat. Posters here encouraged me to stop my guys' current food and switch her to something better cold turkey. I switched them to Oxbow...

I'm feeding my two chins, Angel & Demon, Sunaturals Chinchilla food. After reading through the information on here it definitely seems as though that is not a good food. I've tried to put them on a plain pellet before, but Angel is a brat and refuses to eat the plain pellets. She'll eat them in...

I'm new to the forum, and thought I'd introduce my chinnies. Angel is 2 1/2 years old. I've had her since she was 12 weeks. As a baby, she was a very sweet, mellow chin who loves 'scritchies" and snuggles. As she aged, however, she became a little bit of a brat. After she hit a year, I put her...

Lucifer was my first chinchilla. He was a surprise from my parents, and I adored him from day 1. He was my Luci-boy, the sweetest little guy was content to sit on my lap and eat hay for hours. He would run to the side of his cage as soon as I came in the room, begging to be let out. Then one day...
