New Chin Owner from OHIO :)

[deanna_xo]

Hi my names Deanna. I'm a new chinchilla owner. Bought 2 baby brothers last friday. Ive rescued baby bunnies and squirrels before and used to belong to a board back then so figured I should belong to a board now, should I ever need advice!

Welcome to the forum!

My first piece of advice, make sure they are both males. A lot of pet shops and, yes, even breeders, have mis-sexed chins before resulting in surprise pregnancies for completely unprepared owners.

Welcome to the forum, definitely double check the sex! I know if you are unsure you can post pics.
