One of my chinchilla suffered a very bad eye infection, he had it the same week i got him and he had antibiotics and anti inflammatory for it.
I was just wondering after watching him tonight.
He is much more cautious than my other chinchilla, and prefers to be in his cage running on his wheel or his saucer. When he does come out he never pelts about like my other one, he just hops about very cautiously, then usually ends up going back to his cage to run on his wheel. When he does come out he usually runs up and down on the sofa, but everything is done in slow motion in comparison to my other chin.
I started to wonder this tonight and decided to do some kind of test to see if he is blind and have noticed that he does not react to me being their until he can smell my hand, hear it or it actually touches him.
Is their a chance his sight is bad? or worse not their at all.
