Hello all!
I am considering breeding my 16-month old sapphire chinchilla, Alice. I have been reading a ton of different websites regarding this, but I was just wondering if some of you more experienced breeders would be able to give me any helpful pieces of information / tips. Alice has never had any health problems, and has a very gentle temperament. Should I get her and her potential mate checked by her vet prior to attempting to breed her? I'm assuming that this would be a good idea even if it is not required. What is the largest litter that you have had? I read that the litters are usually 1-2 kits, but I am just curious as to whether or not it is possible for more to be born in a single litter. I will update you if I think of some more questions that have not already been answered by the information that I have found online thus far. Thank you all so much!
