I use a puppy pen that i disconnet the ends to use as like a gate to block off certain areas in my room. Baby gates will help. As for toys i suggest safe tunnels made from wood, house they can crawl into, toss toys etc that they don't get in their cage. Chin chic has they large chinnie buddies...

Hi so I need to find a chinchilla safe way to get rid of odor in the room she is housed in. Ik candles and air fresheners are terrible for their respiratory systems. Ik chins aren't really smelly animals but their are others animals in the same room that can cause an odor. I keep my window open...

What time did u pick him up? He could've just been excited to see you and thought he was getting time out of the cage, but when you put him down he wanted to go back and rest

Also another way to stimulate them is training. This may sound odd to do with a chin but one of the ways I bonded and stimulated my chin was training. She knows how to do stuff like come, walk on 2 legs, high five, and spin. Is there an area where you can place blankets down so its softer?

Is there a place in your home where it is carpeted?? or where you can place a rug or yoga mat down?

The only thing I can suggest is during the day while he is sleepy take off the fleece liners and have him pee on the plastic pans. Then you could collect from there.

I would keep it out until they are completely healed just to be safe. However, are they allowed time out of the cage? It sounds like they just want some exercise and stimulation. Another thing that I would suggest is something I do with my own chin. I grab a treat and I hide it somewhere in the...

Its hard to tell the sex when they are younger then 6 weeks but they both look like females to me (dont take my word on that tho)

Yeah I got my first chinchilla when i had just turned 14. I did a lot of research on them and have given Roo the bets life she can have. I think it really depends on the kid. One with enough maturity and resposiblity can keep one. Someone who can respect them and be reliable for them. It does...

Ok its been a couple of days and I havent seen any diarrhea or irregular poop. She is acting completely normal and eating fine so it seems she wasnt effected at all by the treats.

Hi so last night my Chinchilla snatched 2-3 whole rosehips while i wasnt looking and ate them all. Is there anything I should be concerned about or do. I am expecting diarrhea due to stomach upset but not sure if theres anything i can do for her or should be worried about

She does have a chinnie budde, has had it for several months now and she doesnt acknowledge it much. When I first got it she did by standing on it, sleeping on it/next to it, and playing with it by throwing it around the cage. Not sure if that means much but now she doesnt acknowledge it that I...

Hi I have had my chinchilla for a year now and have been dreaming about getting a second. However, Roo is a rescue and lived alone in a garage for most of her life. I dont know how old she is and I dont think she has lived with another chin before. Is there something I could look for in her...

Yeah i am in the same situation. I have pieces of pumice and broken lava ledges in there but haven't bought new ones yet due to the chaos. She has pine chews, willow, sea grass, loofah, finger traps, Himalayan stones, coconut shells, apple orchard sticks etc. and while she is chewing on tiny...

Where'd you get your chin? Mine was a rescue and she was also naturally curious but scared of me as well. She had no human interaction her entire life and was stuck in some guys garage. When I got her she was curious and friendly but also kinda shy and scared. It took several months to gain...

I would add a bunch of ledges/perches and create steps/paths for them to get to specific areas. Adding a bunch of fun toys for them to chew (mine loves pumice stones) would also make it more fun. Foraging are also cool if you want to give them a treat put one in there every once in a while.

wait chins can have mint leaves!?

aw man I live in the area but I have a female and dont know if i want 3 chins XD. I'll let you know if I know anyone who wants them

the best chin spin in my opinion is this one. You can find it on amazon as well. Its pretty quiet, meets the size requirements and is pretty sturdy. Also since its not plastic its safe for your chin...

lol maybe like the normal amount of salty a human is XD
