So many of us! I'm going into my final year of graduate school at West Chester University working on my Master's in Philosophy. I got my first chin last February when I was living in an apartment off campus, and I got my second chin this past March. My boys really seem to enjoy apartment...

I've searched the forums for a direct answer to this question but I haven't found one. How can you tell if a pair of chins are bonded? I have a two standard males, Munchkin and Ozzie. Munchkin is about two and Ozzie just turned one last month. They snuggle, groom each other, and I almost...

Munchkin and Ozzie, sitting up and watching me run around the apartment. I love them!

I had PANR mixed with Mazuri while I was transitioning my new chin to the Mazuri, and he just ate all the Mazuri pellets and ignored the PANR! Munchkin wasn't interested in the PANR either, so I guess they're happy with Mazuri. They also LOOOOVE the Ryersons supplement! They fight over who...

I second that That happens to me all the time! When I move out of my apartment I'm going to have to completely replace the moulding because Munchkin enjoys chewing it so much. Not to mention the cabinets below the sink. Crazy chins.

I agree That thought did cross my mind. I was thinking of making his full name "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" and Ozzie for short, but perhaps like, "Good Ozzie" or "Straight-edge Ozzie" or something. My friend Bob swears he'll start calling him the Prince of Darkness if I stick with this...

Okay I have a question. I read that typically, chinchilla testes stay in the abdominal cavity. I just got a male chin whose testes hang down a bit, so that they're visible from the outside. Is this normal? Or should I be concerned? He seems otherwise healthy, very active, good eyes/teeth...

Hello! I just got a second male standard chinchilla. Here's the scoop: My first chin is Munchkin, a male, slightly older than the new one and a bit larger. He's also a little darker, as the new one is a v/c. I need a name for the new boy. So far I've come up with: Winky (or Winkie)...

I just bought bag balm to put on my chin's dry-ish ears, and he HATED it. I don't know if he just needs to get used to it or what, but I put a bit on his ears and started to rub it in and he freaked and ran away (to a corner of his cage) then spent five minutes trying to roll in his bedding and...

Where might one find a chin-safe litter box? Preferably one that goes up the corner a bit, as Munchkin likes to back his butt up to a corner and just go there. I'm about to switch to fleece liners but he drinks and pees like it's his job so i'd rather not have to wash the liners every two...
