I finally got some photos up.
Well, in new owner news, he is doing great.
However I bought some timothy hay but they are in like "pellets" kinda how you buy them in blocks...I really hate loose hay so I figure I try this so I can just put it in his bowl.
He wont touch the stuff! So loose hay it is I guess.
I am wondering if I should add a wheel, I had some ppl tell me they do/do not need it. But he has taken up to jumping up/down his four levels at night and making a crap load of noise while doing it.
He is getting a lot of out of cage supervised play despite him getting under the bed twice.
Also, I went to a different petsmart and turns out I met the family that was going to by my male...but I got him first! I guess they came in earlier that day and were going to come back the following day. I felt pretty bad, but they kids were real young (I dont think young kids should have chinchillas due to the fact they are so fragile and care is a little more difficult than lets say a hamster...dont know if anyone agrees on that but when I worked at petsmart I wouldn't sell them to anyone under 12...)
That petsmart however had a velvet female that they got so I guess it worked out, although my male is more docile (which is the main reason they wanted him)
Well, here are some photos! Enjoy!
