So since I have been done with finals (YAY) I have had loads of time to spend with my chinchillas. I have been taking them out for playtime at the same time each day and they love it :) today while I had them out, one of them went back into the cage and the other one stayed out with me. The guy who was in his cage (Bubba) started making a soft squeeking sound. He didn't sound panicked or anything but I had never heard it before. Then the one who was out with me (Buddah) started making the same sound back. Bubba came down out of his cage, they both continued making the noise, touched noses and went on with their playtime..is this normal? I was just worried because I never had heard it and I want to make sure everything is alright. They really never make any noises at all except for today
 
My Hercules is my first "talking chin" and I was so excited to hear him the first time he squeaked at me. Then when I got baby Magnum, he is also very vocal. They squeak across the room from one another.

Sometimes, if you get the pitch right and imitate their noises they will even squeak back!
