chin spin video

[chinnychinchinchilla]

im just wondering if anyone has a video of their chin in the chin spin. preferably one in a fn cage. i just want to know how noisy they are, i know everyone says they are pretty quiet but when i looked up videos on youtube they seemed pretty noisy. but then again the cages they were in werent the best quality.
thanks in advance

I don't have a video but a few of the chins sleep in my room in a FN 142 and they have 2 chin spins in the cage and I dont wake up at all. The LeoBraun wheel now that was noisy!
I recommend placing the wheel on the back side of the cage though to a wall that is very stable

thank you, im a pretty heavy sleeper and i have to have noise to sleep so im pretty sure i will be able to sleep through it. i just got confused because i saw videos on youtube and they seemed loud! but also the cages didnt look as stable as the fn. thanks for the wall trick i never really thought about that.

I have mine on the short side of a FN142 and I can barely hear it at night. I put it on the short side so I could brace it more easily.

how do you brace it?

Installing it on the short side means that there is less room for that side of the cage to flex, and I made some washers that would not slip between the bars.
