I use these for my iguana. It's called a Snap'y Fit Food & Water Bowl and it comes in a few sizes. Might be a good idea if you have a chin that turns over his bowls. [/URL][/IMG]

I bought one on ebay as well, but it's 16". I'm concerned that the running path is only 4". The current plastic one is 4.5", so it might be okay. We'll see if it's quiet. Please let us know about the chin spin, if this one doesn't work out, I'm getting the chin spin.

Call the humane society. That is the least and probably the best you can do.

Okay, so you all know if you read my "Lost one of my boys" thread that I'm working on getting Choochi's cage up to safer standards for chins. Thanks for the advice. My next question is about taming. What I'm doing now is just taking Choochi out once a day and holding him for a few minutes...

Hi People, I finally found a metal wheel for Choochi and I ordered that. As for the food, I'm getting the Masuri, but I noticed that Oxbow is available at Petsmart. One person recommended that, so I may be able to buy food from the pet store if they continue to carry it. I have been taking...

I will definately look for a metal wheel for Choochi. Thanks, and I will keep you all posted. I have been taking him out, holding him once a day since Moki left us. That's to king of help him forget, giving him something new to focus on. Do you all handle your chins? Is there any...

I did reply to the first few responses, but my posts have not shown up yet. Sorry, maybe they will be approved and show up soon. Thanks for the tips on plastic. I will take that advice and remove all the plastic, including the shelves and replace those with wood. I thought pine wood was...

Dawn, I do have wooden chew toys and I give them branches from the trees we have (willow and mulberry). I do buy the stick sold at the stores now and then. In the pictures you can see the chew toys hanging, that's just some of them. I have more in a bag and I change them out now and then. Do...

Thanks, I didn't think they needed UVB. A good quality pellet, meaning just the pellet that's made from hay? Do you have a kind that you can recommend? I give them the ones with the fun stuff because they like it, but I know they don't need it. I think I may have ordered a Masuri pellet at...

I'm not sure where to post this, so here it is. Please move to appropriate forum as necessary. [/URL][/IMG] This is Choochi. I have had him for about 6 years. I got him before I moved to the country, from a friend who had adopted him from the SPCA. I bought Choochi a really nice larger...

Hello All. I'm new to the forum. I have one chinchilla and his name is Choochi. I had two this morning, and I will post about that in the appropriate forum. I wanted to learn all I can about chins to make sure I am giving Choochi the best care I can give him. So I will be poking around on...
