Both my girls are big on Stacey's apple twigs.. Mischief practically inhales them, lol. She also loooves Essentia's chin salad (I can hardly put it in her bowl because she's trying to frantically eat it out of my fingers). Luna adores Carise's apple pellets. Oh, and they both also go nuts for...

My Luna always makes me think of a LOLCAT.. except obviously, she'd be a LOLCHIN! "I'M IN UR FRIDGE, STEALIN UR FOODZ!!" "OH HAI, I IZ BREAD INSPECTORZ!" :D

How alright (or not alright) is it to put two chins that don't get along in a FN 142? Obviously with the levels separated. I'm a relatively new chin owner, and have two chins (currently in separate cages) that I hope to successfully intro. I've also been wanting to upgrade to a FN 142 (in a...

Crazy, I'm so sorry to hear about your Chilli.. and Newt, sending good wishes to you and Jasmine! Basically what happened is as follows: on Friday morning during work, I called the vet to see if I could talk to one of the doctors and ask their opinion. I figure I would also set up an...

Once in a while she'll eat one, but not too frequently. And definitely never enough that I would wake up to an essentially clean cage like I did this morning. I wish the day would go faster, I just want to get home and make sure she's alright. <sigh>

Thank you both for the input! Very much appreciated as a (hopefully unnecessarily) paranoid chin mom! I got up this morning and the discharge is gone, and she seems to be acting normally; however, it doesn't look like she was pooping during the night. I'm going to work and if there's still no...

She's around 9 months old. I haven't seen her drinking yet, but she's eaten a little hay and is now chomping an apple twig. She doesn't seem to be pooing very much, though. A few pieces, but they also look a bit smaller than usual.. could that also be related to being in heat?

Thanks -- it does look a bit open down there, so I'm keeping a close eye on her and I'll see how she is tomorrow.

I got home tonight and Mischief seemed a little subdued. I noticed that she kept grooming herself on her lower belly, and her nose was a little wet. I picked her up and looked, and she's wet around her vaginal area/rear. There seemed to be a little bit of whitish discharge. I gently cleaned her...

Thanks all -- I'm relieved to hear it's not something terribly out of the ordinary. :)

I'm a relatively new chinchilla owner, and I noticed a few days ago that my little one's belly is dirty. Specifically, it looks like when she urinates, she might have sat in it? The fur in maybe half inch to an inch radius around her privates is yellow and a bit matted. She's acting just fine...
