This is the current carrier. Pretty small and id imagine itd get hot in their. I was planning on just doing one of the critter nation levels from their cage, no ramps during the car ride (may put them up if we stop in a hotel) and strap it down in the back. The carrier u listed is perfect. The...

Hi all, so we are making a huge move from california to idaho in a few months. Itll either be a 3 day trip with one night in a hotel or a 2 day trip straight shooting it. The current carrier my chins have is really small and i dont want them to be in that carrier for 2-3 days. Fitting 2 of them...

One of my chins do this when she gets tired after playtime. But id definatly have her checked out. If everything seems fine from the vet she may just be really tired or over heated from play time

Hi so I just went to let my chins out for some exercise and noticed some yellowish type goop under my chinchillas mouth. Never seen anything like this and Google doesn't seem to be helping. She just went to the vet 2 days ago for a tooth trimming and they did a general check to make sure she's...

My chin cut her leg a while back and thank god their weren't any bone or muscle injuries but she was limping long after the inuring healed. We found she had just lost her confidence and was favoring the leg. Give it time and do some physical therapy to get the muscles working again. Hold him and...

From one who has a chin with malo, if his teeth are overgrown he defiantly needs a vet with experience. I would call every vet in the state if u can and see if any of them offer chinchilla trimming. Unfortunaly if u cant its only humane to put him down as he is starving himself rn.

Hay can be very frustratring when u have a picky chinchilla. I have 2 and one will eat anything u hand her and the other one pretty much wont touch it, even alafa hay. You just have to find a blend that ur chin likes. My picky one will only eat oat hay so I mix it with western timothy (my other...

any updates on how he is?

my chinchilla has the same problem,but we know she has malocclusion so when we that happen we schedule an appointment to trim her teeth. I would take her to the vet asap to check for overgrown teeth. It could be just a simple eye infection, caused by irritation from hay or dust, or something...

changing locations like that, that often will just cause her unnesscary stress. My opinion would be to have her stay with ur mom and visit as often as u can, and getting her a companion definalty wouldn't hurt the situation

Is this still up for sale?

I know of a breeder but she lives in the bay area. Lmk if u want her contact

Theres a breeder in northern california that i can hook you up with. In janurary she goes to a chinchilla convention in fraiser park so u guys can meet up half way there. Lmk. Theres also a rescue in Orange County that has a mosiac female. Not sure if ur intrested in rescuing tho

Its been a few weeks and shes using the leg a bit more but still not putting a lot of pressure on it and is using the other hind leg to carry most of her weight. Ik this will prolly never change but will she have an increased risk of arthritis and joint pain cuz shes more dependent on her other...

I can feel a small layer of fat between her ribs. No when shes on all fours then i cant feel her spine

My first chinchilla spent all of her life alone until she was 4. She is super dominant and territorial and did not like the new chin at first. After a week they were completely bonded and are inseparable. I personally think its a great idea to get another chinchilla for urs to have a companion...

So my new chinchilla has gone through some medical issues and she has lost quite a bit of weight. Shes gained a lot of it back but i can feel her spine when i pet her when shes in a sitting position. She doesn't have much fur on her back rn as she lost it from being spooked at the vet. Is she...

idk what their treatment plan looks like but they are getting us into their vet on thuresday and helping us with her care. She seems to be doing better already. Shes no longer drooling and her energy level is higher. Shes gained so much weight now that she can actually eat. hopefully it isn't...

So we took her to our vet and they did an examination and noticed her top left molar are slightly slanted but that caused an ulcer on the bottom gum which is why she was drooling. They weren't able to do x-rays that's day but from what we can tell it's not bad. The rescue is helping us with her...
