I have been a regular on here since the beginning of time. I've made a whole bunch of posts since the beginning of the year. I post a for sale ad and I'm deleted. I've been living through an abusive marriage and been trying to figure out a way out for the past month or so so I haven't been...

Every once in a while I'll go through the records of my pet chins to check ages and weights and I just realized my standard, Bert is 17 years old now. I got him at age 12 from Jags as a retired breeder for $25. It's worth it to take a chance on the retired oldies :) My second oldest is...

Can you tell quality at 4 weeks? One litter of two I had is gorgeous IMO. The first is light tan and he seems to have the blue hue that is desired and lots of coat. Do light tans ever do well in a show? They second is a dark ebony. So far he has lots of coat, size and nice color. They...

I've raised litters here and there over the past 20 years. I have 2 beautiful dark ebonies that have been bred to a really nice dark tan. I watched the breedings so I know exactly when the litters would be due. The one that was due on Dec 11 just gave birth to what looks like a dark tan...

A coworker and friend of mine has newly acquired pet rats but she takes a lot of razzing at work for it. I'm hoping to steer her towards like minded people :) Thanks for any help.

Louie, is my second chinchilla that has been examined and x-ray'd by a vet and has shown good teeth structure in the mouth (except for one little rough area), and good front teeth, but x-ray has shown roots growing up and down. He has watery eyes and just started drooling. Does anyone know...

Just realized my vet's office has me seriously underfeeding critical care. Good thing I caught it early. I read in an earlier post that a chinchilla needs 120 mls of critical care a day to build up weight ???? There is 5 mls in a teaspoon...is this right?

I brought my 9 year old bv, Oprah, to the vet last tuesday because she had been drooling after eating, some weight loss but NO weepy eyes. I took her to see Dr. Zyra in Bolton, a recommended vet on here, that sees a lot of chins, rabbits and guinea pigs. When she opened up Oprah's mouth...

this is hilarious! If you don't at least crack a smile, there is something wrong with you lol http://mxp.blogs.cnn.com/2010/12/07/animals-of-youtube-sing-deck-the-halls/

I'm waiting on an answer to my letter that I sent them. My guys love the bark bites. I buy 4 or 5 packages at a time and give everyone a special treat. Recently my pet store replaced Bark Bites with Natural Bites from Super Pet. They must be so new I can't even find it on their website...

I have some wire cages that I got from a friend. I believe they are handmade or were made for her. Yesterday morning I found one of my chins hanging on the inside, her foot stuck through the wire of the door. I don't know how long she had been there but I got her out immediately and...

FEMALES!! Uggghhhhhh!! After three days straight of trying to pair two adult females, I GIVE UP!!! :tantrum: :hair::hair: I use the method of one chin in a small carrier inside a cage and the other chin having the run of the cage. Then I switch off every so often. These chins HATE each...

Not that long ago I had babies born to a homo beige sire (his parents were pink white and beige) and a pink white dam (parents hetero beige and white mosaic). Recently I read somewhere that I had a 25% change of a homo pink white (?) I'm just curious.... according to this site there is...

I've been trying to save a baby that got bit badly in the nose area either by her mom or her littermates. I had to pull her because mom isn't a great mom and didn't try hard enough to help her. All was well until I stupidly added just a TINY smidge of nutrical to the milk (goats) to help her...

you have to admit his pitbull, Daddy, was an incredible ambassador for the breed. At 16 years of age he had to be put down today :( RIP Daddy.

....grandmas too :) My first grandchild may be arriving as early as monday or tues (daughter may be induced). She'll be staying with me for a bit afterward. A lot has changed since I was a mom 21 years ago. Babies now have to sleep on their backs due to the risk of sids (?). Are babies...

Anyone wear these? I have heard great things about them but I've never previously consider them because of their price...and some are not the prettiest. However, I have developed "bad" feet and don't want to spend the summer limping. I've heard there is a breaking in periods of a couple of...
