Hello,
I have two boy chinchillas and I originally noticed some discoloration in the whiskers of Thumper my more grey- white mosaic. Today I now see that a couple of his whiskers are broken. His cage mate Kiko has long lovely whiskers and I haven't noticed this discoloration. I'm not sure if I should treat them both for a fungal infection and clean everything or if it's just the two of them rough housing. I don't see any pink spots or flaky skin and no changes in behavior. I know Kiko is the dominant one between the two of them and he's pretty vocal about it. I'll attach pictures so you can give some advice. Please let me know what you guys think, I'm worried.
