I have a chinny that I have had for five years. Every now and then at night she will make a calling/warning sound but VERY rarely. Now, I have just gotten another chinchilla. I had let her relax and get used to the new environment and yesterday I moved them into the same room together so that their cages are side by side. Everything was fine. They looked at each other through the bars.
I went to sleep and around 12 the new chinchilla started to call/warn over and over again. She got Chinny going to and it was as if they were communicating to each other.
The only thing I can think of is that she is not used to noise or movement at night and with hearing the dogs she may have decided to call out?
I ended up having to move her back out of the room to where she was and I never heard a sound from her after that. Will I have to deal with it until she gets used to the extra noises at night? Could they have been really communicating? And will this help them possibly bond?
Thanks,
