The chins are doing great! They have been completely weened off of milk for a long time now and you would never know they were hand-fed.

Hopefully the pictures I attached work. So they are 4 weeks and 2 days old now! They are both still doing great I think. They are both eating hay and occasionally I see them snacking on pellets (and woodchips too). Is there any way to teach them how to use the water bottle or will they figure it...

Well they're both still hanging in there. The gray one is doing great. The tan one though has good days and bad days.. They are are about 16 days old now. When can I start to feed them less often?

I'm in nh

So they are still doing OK I think. The tan one is definitely still having some bms but I'm not sure about the gray one. They're still acting normal so that's good. The weekends over though so it's the sisters turn to watch them. I'm sure she will get them going again

The only breeder I know doesnt breed anymore and lives 2+ hours away unfortunantely. I probably will be taking a long break from breeding after this though. As much as I adore chin babies, it really is just sad watching them. They are both so active still though :/

Poor things. Right now they are both bloated and constipated. I am doing everything everyone is saying but nothing seems to be working. Should I be rubbing harder?

His belly is so incredibly bloated. It seems inflated like a balloon.

One of the babies poops are almost completely white and runny. It sort of makes sense since most of what they're eating is white but is this normal?

Would it be acceptable to keep another female I have in with the babies? She hasn't had babies in a while but she still was a good mother and can take care of everything besides food

So right now they both are eating, and theyre eating more so hopefully thats a good sign. The only problem is the gray baby doesnt seem to be pooping. The beige one is quite a bit it seems though. The gray one gained almost 3 grams since yesterday morning but has stayed the same weight...

Thanks for all the replies. Im going to keep them at my sisters for now because she is a stay at home mom and I work full time. She is more than willing to help out with this. I had gotten Kitten milk replacement but would goat be better? Or does it not make a big difference?

My Chinchilla Precious had babies earlier today. I went to bed after they were born "because I work night shift" and everything was fine. She was eating the afterbirth and everything. Everything was fine. I dont know what happened but I woke up and she was dead. Now I have two chinchilla babies...

She seems even less pregnant today than she has the last few days. I guess I will have to hope she didnt get pregnant right away and just wait and see what happens. Thanks for the responses though everybody

For some reason my response never showed up. Right now the male is by himself and my pregnant chin is with her daughter from her first litter. I am about to go in and check on her for the first time this morning. She had a baby boy but I gave him to my girlfriend after about 10 weeks so I dont...

She has been away from him for less than 3 months I would say.. He is actually by himself right now though. Away from the two girls.

The male was with her for a few months but he hasn't been with her for a few months now. She is with the baby from her first litter though. I thought she was going to go into birth earlier today because she was down on the bottom of the cage but nothing.

Im not sure what to think about Cucumber. It has been 5 months since She was with her mate. She is getting very very big and the babies are practically falling out her mouth she's so full. I am just wondering if its possible that she has been pregnant too long. I guess its possible she didnt get...

Thank you. She is growing at the same rate as the other babies and the only difference is that she's slightly more shy than the rest but that could be because she was an only child maybe?

Anybody have any idea?
