Hey guys, my name is Nick and I'm from Illinois. I just picked up my first two chins today. I picked them up from a friend of my girlfriend's who's paretns made her get rid of them...They had two death balls, and I told her that I didn't want those, and she could keep them...I did that much for them, They're both a year old and the black one is named Biggles, and the Grey one is Chi-chi I did a LOT of research last night, spent about 2-3 hours on here straight, just reading up on what I should get Both are male and I had a few questions which I don't know where to start with them. First off lets start with what they came with.
-Kaytee Dust Bath
-Kaytee Natrual Orchard Grass
-Sunseed Shredded Aspen bedding
-Kaytee Forti-Diet Food Pellets
The cage they came with is pictured below, along with them in it...I need to get a different cage, I know that, and I need a glass water bottle.
First question...Are the supplies that I listed (and pictured) that they came with okay to use?
Second question, can we rename them? I don't know how or if they respond to their names, but they're only a year old and we were wondering if we could rename them.
Third what cages woudl you guys recommend for these two? It seems that Chi-chi likes to climb the cage now...and it worries me that he's going to hurt himself.
Other misc. questions;
-How much bedding do I use?
-Do I put their grass all in the same place? (the grass is what they should have a 24/7 supply of correct?)
-The pellets is what they get 2 tablespoons of twice? daily?
-If I keep the dust bath in the cage, there should NOT be dust in it all the time, correct?
I'm sure I Have MANY more questions, that you guys might answer, however if you could give me ANY input that'd be great!
Now for the pictures! (I realize in one of the pictures there's cords, those will be gone before anyone responds to this message)
