    420 Chinchillas Rescued

    Posted an hour ago on FB: Hey everybody. I'm new to the chinchilla community. I just adopted a male and female from the San Diego humane society. Recently they received 400 of these little critters from a couple hoarders and they need good homes. These are my first and I am definitely looking...

    NY & PA Availability

    Well, I don't list kits until they wean...I planned to list adults when I do cage cleaning in a few days...is there something specific you were looking for? Pet/breeder, price range, color, gender?

    420 Chinchillas Rescued

    Not to mention the lack of quarantine...MY GOD! I mean, anyone who does "rescue"...even out of the kindness of their heart (there are several on this forum)...KNOWS a one month quarantine is minimum. There's a reason for that. ANY time a chinchilla changes homes...it's immune system is weakened...

    420 Chinchillas Rescued

    It's been posted on FB that adoptions & viewings have been halted at this time as the chinchillas aren't transitioning well and they may lose some. This happens when...uh...well...you rip them from the only environment they've ever known...throw them into an entirely new environment...let any...

    Chinny can't walk

    She may've been injured, and worsened it to the breaking point with the wheel. SO, even if it wasn't broke to the point of not moving to BEGIN with...it may be now (after using the wheel while injured). She needs an x-ray...as mentioned, no amount of meds or handfeeding is going to help if her...

    420 Chinchillas Rescued

    Wanted to add that I FEEL for the west coast. This is not only dumping 400+ chinchillas in the immediate vicinity...but it's dumping 400 DIRT CHEAP chinchillas, plus possible offspring if any of the females were bred (someone said males were separated months ago)...PLUS the offspring of those...

    420 Chinchillas Rescued

    Dawn, I think the reputation being ruined is that of ANY chinchilla breeder. Anyone who uses runs...anyone who has purchased from a pelting herd...anyone who has EVER medicated a chinchilla at home...cause trust me, that's where it's going. Do I agree with this breeders practices? I'm sure...

    Appa is small?

    I was not basing my restrictions on any formal studies, I was basing them off of the dozens of dead kits I've seen posted about or have personally been told about by customers...over the decade that I've been in chinchillas. It's not worth the risk...

    retained placentas

    I'm with Brea, honestly I'd look at genetics and diet. If they're not related, whatsoever for a fact...check what he's feeding. If they are related, he could try switching diet for any further animals from that line but I personally would cull the whole line...

    Chinny can't walk

    Gatorade is okay, sometimes, but I don't personally use it. As for the treats, raisins are poisonous to animals...seriously...so even a little poison...when you're not eating your normal amount of regular food has an amplified effect. It's like drinking alcohol when you haven't eaten...you get...

    Molding a sociable/friendly chinchilla?

    I'm w/Smidgeyy, if the chinchilla seems to tolerate being held for longer periods of time it in fact IS a good way to bond. On the other hand, if it's a chinchilla does not like being held it will actually have the reverse effect so gauge his response to it and go from there. Otherwise, and...

    Critter Nation vs Ferret Nation

    Sorry it's taken so long for somebody to answer you...hope this helps a little: 1) I would personally keep a single chinchilla, under the age of 6mos, in a single unit of the FN until it reaches 6mos 2) The CN has it's purpose, it's a great cage for little/baby chins...but otherwise, in the...

    Appa is small?

    First, from the pictures your chin doesn't look small for his build. That said, I would still limit his play times...period. For reasons mentioned young chinchillas especially can over exert themselves leading to heat stroke or at the very least, less growth than expected. He's not "too small"...
