    RE: The non producing chinchillas

    If the female has produced and the male hasn't I would suspect it's him. I would repair them with other mates. I've had females that would only produce with certain males. Despite our attempts for selected breeding... sometimes the chins do have their say! LOL

    Hair on tail falling out

    How big is the wire on your cage? This happens often with 1" wire spacing as they'll stick their tail out while sitting on the shelf.

    Chocolate or a poorly colored ebony?

    I agree with ebony as well.

    sudden change in sexual behvior

    The vet would give a receipt for the neutering. I would see if you can confirm it with a vet who did it. Some people will say oh, they're too old to breed, and call them neutered, etc. If he was neutered later in life it's possible that he's neutered but will still mount. I would keep them...

    Chinchilla keeps one eye shut

    Is it a little shut or fully shut? Has it always been that way?

    My chin found a popcorn kernel

    Most likely one or even two pieces of popcorn did not cause a soft stool. I would not give play time if for no other reason than just him having loose stools. I've personally seen too many chins injured during play time to really support loose play time. There are some people who have rooms...

    Chin & Puppy

    Without regular exposure the puppy will never become less interested. It will always be "that fun toy thing mom doesn't let me play with". Depending on the set up you can also block the bottom half off if you have the main level divider in by blocking the jump hole to keep more distance.

    Deaths with Petsmart Chins

    Problem with any chain store, they're just worried about the bottom dollar. They don't care what happens to the pets, of if they're healthy or not. They give the staff that does care no say, and rest of the staff could care less or is incompetent. We bought a chameleon from PetSmart, I knew...

    Wisdom teeth?

    Mine had same cavities so they said just as well pull them instead of fill them since ya don't really need them... :/

    Wisdom teeth?

    My one bottom hole is still open, the tops are "closed" as well as they do I guess. Good still gets stuck in there. The side were the incision for the impacted one is scarred badly and food gets stuck between the cheek and the scar all of the time, my tongue or finger won't fit into it to get it...

    Selling diseased animals

    I had a male, the breeder said it was a super male and I agreed, the problem is I got one kit out of him... EVER. Of course you get a great male, you put your best females with him... They all started dying... every female I put with him died. I talked with Doc Butler, he agreed he was some sort...

    Any interest in ECBC/MCBA magazines?

    I believe that scanned images are okay to be shown if they are credited properly... per written copyright laws.... I was thinking maybe like $50 plus shipping for the lot of them... Shipping shouldn't be too much even though they're heavy they could go media mail.

    Any interest in ECBC/MCBA magazines?

    I agree Amy, that's why I didn't want to just toss them. :D I don't know what a fair price would be... I know someone else sold a large lot a while back, but I couldn't find any record of it.

    Any interest in ECBC/MCBA magazines?

    I have over 70 magazines, mostly ECBC, some MCBA mags I've been stacking up over the years. Some are over 5 years old and since then. Is anyone interested in the whole lot of them? Going through cabinets and just need to downsize on stuff.

    Gerbils keep pushing up bedding and dumping out their water!

    If there is very little bedding I don't see how they could pile it that high... unless they're moving it from one cage to the next.

    Large wood lot and Edstrom valves/collars/misc

    I will get a couple box sizes to see what the best shipping is going to be and let you know! :D

    Somone made an oopsy

    Around the bottom won't help. You need 1" x 1/2" all the way around or they'll just climb over and out. If you had a pair in breeding you should already have a baby safe cage...

    Large wood lot and Edstrom valves/collars/misc

    I was asking $40 for that and the edstrom stuff, but I did have someone interested in just the watering stuff, if you guys want to split it at $20 we can do that. I'll message her to see if that'll work and get some shipping info for you.

    Old chin owner with a new chin issue

    She needs a lot of places to hide, while you think you're giving her an ideal chin environment, if she grew up in small cages, she's actually terrified of the open spaces and feels very volunerable. Better get on your patience pants! Get a tube of old fashioned oats or supplement and sit with...

    Advice needed for chin not eating

    Did they do an oral inspection of her mouth or just the xray?
