Exactly what Cat said... Did the dog injure your chin? You will have to hand feed your chin if he stops eating.

9 times out out of 10 all of my hay holders ended up being just another spot for my chins to sit on and poop into. It was more work trying in to get the poop out of it with a vacuum. I now place a handful of hay on top of a shelf/ledge/house, wherever there is a clean, poop free spot and they...

I meant to add but my edit time ran out that I'm considering a Frigidaire FAD704DUD.

I only use a dehumidifier in the summer. Year round our basement temps range between 65-69 degrees. In the summer the humidity can get as high as 55-60%. Three years ago I bought a SoleusAir SG-DEH-70-2 dehumidifier and I have absolutely no complaints about this unit, it worked perfectly for our...

Congratulations on your soon to be new chins. I would also free feed and give them fresh pellets, hay and filtered or reverse osmosis water daily. Some chins can get stressed out to new environments so I would let them get acclimated first before giving them treats. I would also limit treats to...

Rabbits carry pasteurella. I would not let the chins out for playtime in the same room that a rabbit has been in previously. If you do a search for "pasteurella" tons of threads will pop up.

Recieved new bags... and will be able to ship starting tomorrow

When I first started out with chins, about 10 years ago, there wasn't much info on them in books nor the internet, at least the places I was looking at. When I finally found chins-n-quills, it was already too late with one of my chins as he had already been diagnosed with malo. I don't get the...
