    Bridges for Ferret Nations

    My boys love these bridges, I made them two over a year ago and they still look great. I started making them for a few friends and decided to see if I could start selling them. They are made from kiln dried pine and heavy duty wire. I just wrap the wire around the cage, because every hardware...

    Any idea what this is?

    I know it might sound weird, but when my chinchilla pees on cardboard, when it dries it turns white like this. So I'd say it's just dried urine.

    Cozy N Fresh bedding

    I haven't used it for a chinchilla but in the past I've used it for a hamster. In my personal opinion, I hated it, when it got wet it would swell up and be gooey. Ideal for spot cleaning I guess, but a mess to clean up. Wasn't the best at odor control either.

    My chin keeps hurting his legs.

    I don't know if it has anything to do with your chinchilla, but my little guy has strokes. In the beginning of his condition, I thought he hurt his leg to, but then in a few minutes, he would be back to normal. When he has an episode he always tries to jump to his top of his cage and always...

    Suitable Drinking Water

    I use bottle water. Boiling water takes away a lot of the water's nutrients, like distilled water, it won't have what your chin needs in it.

    help

    If they only have one house they could be fighting over the house. My boys always had their own house to their selves to prevent fighting. If they are fighting you should start seeing signs of fur slipping like fur missing or fur in the cage. I personally would separate them until I knew for...

    Herbs for Health Issues

    Just in case someone would like to know for future reference. I ordered from Fuzzies Kingdom the organic nature's broad spectrum supplement and the herbal seizure remedy. I might get some bee pollen for my little guy's B vitamins. So fingers-crossed!

    Herbs for Health Issues

    I have a few questions concerning herbs. I have a chinchilla who has had two seizures one in September and one today (that I know of). He has a episode then returns back to normal within minutes. He has never been in perfect health since I got him, I just want to do whatever I can for him. The...

    collodal silver how much/how often??

    I highly recommend colloidal silver. I make and use it personally. I gave it to my cat by mouth although it does take a little while but with it plus prayers healed her from cancer. I have gave it by mouth to my chin when he had a UTI when nothing else would touch it since then he hasn't had...

    Chinchillas and Chronic Illnesses

    I'm trying to decide on what to do. I'm struggling with a chronic illness and trying to keep my chinchilla. My parents are convinced I need to rehome him but I'm so attached. He has already had 5 different homes and finally has a home where he is in a heathy environment and having his needs met...

    Help!

    Thank you for that great information! I do have an emergency vet a hour away but I would have to check if they do exotics. He is eating, pooping and playing like nothing ever happened this morning. Would a bloat symptoms disappear for awhile like this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Help!

    He is walking fine now but he randomly starts crawling or stretching his body, could this possibly be a hair ring? I thought his penis looked white but when I got him back out, he looks fine. Everything looks good.

    Help!

    I just woke up its 1 o'clock in the morning here and my chinchilla wouldn't move from his laying down spot on his side, which is really weird for him. I finally got him up by petting him but then he started crawling. He was having a hard time walking so I panic and I get him out to check him. I...

    Cage mates help!

    When I was introducing my two. I put them in playtime together every night for 25-30 mins depending on how they treated one another. I did that for about a month. By the time I put them in the cage together, they were so use to one another, they were more interested in investigating their new...

    I have a sick little chinchilla

    Thank you so much for replying! I will request an X-ray as soon as I can get an appointment, which Zeke is on the emergency list, so it should be really quick. Thank you for all the tips! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
