    How stupid can you be?

    The article, as far as I can tell, was originally posted on a website called "Glossy News", which is a self-described "accredited online satirical publication and contributing member of HumorFeed" (Humorfeed is a website which publishes satirical news stories). Here's the link to the story on...

    I know the article is fake, but it's still hilarious. =D

    mazuri vs oxbow

    I feed Oxbow because it's very easy to get here and though I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's "cheap", it's reasonably priced and is in fact cheaper than Mazuri. My chins love it, too. My chins were on Mazuri before they came to me and they seemed to be doing fine on it. I have no beef...

    Percentage of Pink White babies.

    So obviously that means you shouldn't even try to get good chins. :rolleyes:

    Feed Change!

    PANR was a term that could have used for both the Show and the Professional formula. The "PANR" Show formula came in a blue bag, while the "PANR" Professional formula came in a grey (I think) bag. PANR Show is now Rabbit Chow Show; PANR Professional is now Rabbit Chow Professional. I always felt...

    cage recomendations

    I have a Quality Cage townhome and I LOVE it. I have two chins in it and they have plenty of room, so one chin would definitely have lots of space in that cage. If you think a townhome is too large, QC makes a smaller model called a "condo", which would work nicely for a single chin. QC cages...

    Contemporary Christian Music Listeners!

    "I Can Only Imagine" by MercyMe Or, and I know this isn't exactly CC, what about "When I Get Where I'm Going" by Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton? I went to a funeral for a girl who was killed in a car accident, where that song was played. It was very appropriate and beautiful.

    The "Thank You Secret Santa" thread

    I got a box in the mail today, which contained many lovely looking chew toys! Thank you so much, Secret Santa!! Bella and Kahlua will love chewing on these new toys! =)

    Who's My Santa

    Good for you. I didn't want to make my clues too hard since I don't post a ton and I knew if I made them really vague my recipient probably wouldn't have any idea who I was. Hope your chins enjoy the gift!

    Another Brangelina rant!

    Hear, hear! I definitely know that it's easy to sit here and say "oh yeah, if I had X amount of money, I'd do this!" But when/if I actually get that money, it can be easy to get "distracted" by other things and then forget all about those lofty goals I once had. Any way you slice it, $7 million...

    Feed Change!

    Here's a thread on a rabbit board I use, discussing Fibre3. There is a lot of mixed reaction from rabbit people on this feed; some love it, some absolutely hate it. I realize rabbits and chins aren't necessarily quite the same, but it seems that most of the quality rabbit feeds are also...

    What a nice surprise!

    In your first sentence I thought you were talking about your chinchilla, and I was thinking, "who takes their chinchilla to bed with them?" *slaps forehead*

    carefresh bedding.

    I use Carefresh Ultra (the white kind) and though my girls nibble on it now and then, they don't actually eat it; they just like to chew it and shred the pieces. I really like how absorbent it is, and the chins don't seem to throw it out of the cage as much as they would regular pine shavings.

    What Are You Currently Reading?

    The Valley of Fear, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. (It's one of a handful of Sherlock Holmes novellas that Conan Doyle penned.)

    tattoo

    That seems like a word that's going to be really hard (if not impossible) to find written as Chinese calligraphy. "Gizmo" is a pretty recently coined word (around 1940-ish). Another idea, which I've seen other people on here do, is to get a tattoo of your chin's pawprint. Try searching the...

    Purina in the green bag

    A note about the "green bag" formula: the ingredients in the regular Purina rabbit chow are exactly the same ingredients as those found in the "PANR" Professional formula. The difference between the two is, of course, the ratios of each ingredient in the feed which give the two types of feed...

    No Pet Lease

    I don't think it's so hard to find a place where pets are allowed that one has to feel that they have no option but to sneak a pet into their apartment and try to hide it. When I was looking for a new place to live last month, I ASKED at every single apartment I looked at, if pets were allowed...

    QC or FN cage?

    All the QC packages include shelves. I just ordered a QC Townhome for my chins, and I'm really excited about it. The reason I chose a QC over a FN in the end was that I liked the fact that I won't have to make any modifications to the cage before I put my chins in it. I also have no problem...

    Did I Screw Up, or is She an Idiot?

    Actually, that's not how it works. Both calico and tortoiseshell are caused by the same basic gene combination. The gene in question is located on the X-chromosome and consists of what are called "co-dominant" alleles, which means that neither is recessive to the other. The location of the...
