Is there any chance you've mis-sexed your female chins?

Here is a guide to breeding mealworms :)

I don't understand this. You say you think the problem in your herd is the feed yet you happen to feel comfortable on keeping them on it for longer then really necessary. I see this as a convenience thing.

Why not switch your others to Nutrena sooner then the new lil ones?

You should know this if you were/are breeding. :no:

Why not try fleece liners?

Very cute but I am not seeing any violet there? :err:

I feed a balanced raw diet (franken-prey) to all three of my cats and it's actually a lot less time consuming and MUCH LESS expensive then commercial dry/wet. I was spending upwards of $110.00-$120.00 a month feeding 100% high quality canned to my kittens, I switched to raw and maybe spend about...

I've been researching diets for cats for over a year now. I have 3 cats of my own and they're my world. I do as much as I can for them! No need to thank me, glad I could help. :)

Yes ma'am, you can. Keep one brand of dry food and because of the water content in wet food, you can switch between as many flavors and brands of wet food as you'd like! Changing up dry food can cause upset stomachs. Use wet food as your variety. :)

As long as it's grain-free, your kitten can eat "adult" food. If you can't seem to locate a nice mom and pop pet store then I'd go for Wellness before anything else. Wet and dry will be much cheaper in a store other then Petco and Petsmart for sure. Also, to make wet food more cost efficient...

Catherine, thats great that you got a better brand. I am not trying to be nit-picky, but after you're done with this bag of food please try to get on a blue buffalo food that is turkey, beef, or chicken based. Fish, if fed too much, can result in mercury poisoning and fish can also lead to...

Same reason why some vets will say that you should be feeding a chinchilla fruits and veggies, they're not well informed and/or don't do any research on it. Thankfully I have a great vet for my cats and he supports my decision on raw-feeding and asks a bunch of questions when we happen to go...

Science diet is also considered "crap food", just because it's expensive doesn't mean it's good. If you're very insistent on feeding dry food, please try to go for something grain-free like Wellness Core, EVO 95% or Taste of the Wild. In the very least, try to fit one wet food meal in a day...

http://www.chins-n-hedgies.com/forums/showpost.php?p=179647&postcount=7 Please keep this in mind and also, it's very worth becoming a member of www.catforum.com There is a wealth of information on there. Figure all the research you do on chinchillas for their wellbeing, it should be done for...

But you don't know. How do you figure internal injury? You didn't get a necropsy done so you will never know. I would have sucked it up and got the necropsy done so I knew what the heck was going on with my herd. He was Esperanza's mate, Mikayla, and now they've both passed away. I hope to God...

You said he didn't pass on until a few hours after you found him in his condition. You could have found an emergency vet in that time. I'd have more than one emergency vet lined up anyways. You never know when those kinds of things (the vet not being there, ect.) are going to happen. Now you...

That's why you should have an emergency vet (or 2+) lined up already.

Keychain! :neener:

I'd say the same risks that come with breeding all chinchillas (and all animals in that case). Cute bebes!
