thanks becky! i'll skip the cute tiki!

Has anyone ever bought the Ecotrition Snak Shak Hide-Away? It looks like a cute Tiki house for chins to have a private nap time, but it's edible so they can snack on it while they're in there. I think it's a cute house, but i don't want my chin eating it, if it's not healthy. Thanks!

It's nice to hear that even though it's not going great making them be friends that you are still enjoying having the two babies. I honestly get so much happiness from my lil guy i think i could put in the effort for another one, i just see him snuggle his stuffed toy and think AW you could...

Frost, how are things going with your new Chin? hopefully things are good! I haven't gotten a second Chin, just because i'm not sure i can make the commitment to do 2 separate playtimes if they don't get along, plus all the extra poops! haha. Bruno is great, his cage is in my bedroom now so we...

yah i'll just stick to dust baths during playtime so doesn't get dry, thanks

i'm curious because it seems lots of people on this board recommend letting the chins dust about 3-4 times a week for about 15 minutes, and then taking the bath out of their cage because "over-dusting" can cause dryness and itchiness. what i wonder is, in the wild, wouldn't they have access to...

i love my chinchilla, but now i realize his cuteness cannot reach its full potential until he is wearing sunglasses or a toupee !!!

hello everyone! I recently adopt a Beige male chin named Bruno from a friend (we think he is 4) and i got him a Ferret Nation 182 with a Chin Spin and lots of perches and cuddle toys. I love him and i want him to be happy and safe, so i had decided against getting a second Chin, just in case...

As a new Chin mommy, i feel super lucky to have all you pro's to help answer questions and give advice, SO if you could tell all us newbies the coolest Chinnie tip, something your Chin loves, or something you wish you knew about their behavior or safety from the beginning, what would it be?? Let...

thanks so much poofybutt!!! i ordered the cage, and that's by far the best deal i've seen!!

i'm so ready to buy this cage!! I heard Ferret Nation was better than Critter Nation? is it worth it to wait for FN? or just get this one for my single chinchilla? i want him to have room to hop, but will this cage be huge in my modest/small bedroom?

uh-oh, are the dried banana treats no good for chins? i got a tropical mix of chinchilla treats and my Bruno seems to like the bananas best. I don't want to give him treats that aren't good for him though!!

Thanks so much to everyone who replied to my questions! I will go ahead and get the Ferret Nation and a fleece cuddle buddy for Bruno. I got a playpen from petsmart for some out of cage time (it even had a chinchilla pictured on the box) but...

Hi, I recently adopted a 4 year old male chin named Bruno from a friend who could no longer keep him. I really want to make sure i'm taking good care of him so I'm happy i found this forum!! The cage he came with is actually too big to fit through my bedroom door, so i want to get him a new one...
