Chinchilla Laying on Side

[lottieboo]

I've had my chinnies about 8 months and they are both about a year old. One of them has just recently (only in the last few days) started laying on her side. She has never done this before as a way she finds comfortable so I'm worried that there is something wrong with her!
I've been in to check on her a couple of times and given her a little nudge and she hops up and seems ok. I've also let her out for a play this morning and she seemed fine then too. I haven't noticed her not eating,, although the chin she is with is very greedy so I'm not sure.
I'm really worried about her, I love her so much I would hate for something to be wrong!! I just need some advice on what to do, like I said, she seems fine otherwise.
Thank you!!!!

I have moved this out of the emergency section, because it is not an emergency. If you use the search function at the top of the forum, and do a quick little search, you'll find this question asked and answered 100s of times. I know it looks scary when they lay like that, but it isn't. They are just sleeping. The fact that she jumped up the instant you touch her is an indicator that she is just fine.
