I think the best idea would be to snip it out carefully with scissors, rather then yanking patches of fur out with it. I would get someone to hold him and you clip just enough fur out to get the raisin out.

Raisins are very good treats, way to surgary for chins. Try rose rips, rolled oats, cheerio, wheetie, or extra sticks as treats

Raisins are not a healthy treat for chinchillas.

A Cheerio, a small part of an unsugared bite size shredded wheat, a rose hip, an apple stick are all better and safer treats for your chinnie. Apple sticks and other chewy toys can be offered in unlimited supplies, but the food based treats should be an only once a day or so treat.

I wonder if the raisin would be easier to get out after a dust bath.

And as already said, raisins are an unhealthy choice for a chinchilla treat.

That's my thought, I'd just let the chin dust a few times and see if it comes loose.

Even with a second pair of hands I'd be way too afraid to take a pair of scissors near a chin....I know how wiggly mine can be. lol
