Very cute! Just want to cuddle him!

He has gotten chubbier and even cuter this week! I need an extra cute name, any ideas? I am going to keep taking videos and photos to document how he changes compared to a normal size chinchilla. He's very friendly too.

He's ADORABLE! How about Tot for his name? Like Tiny Tot.

Timmy or
Pip-Squeek (Pip)

I would name him "Peanut." He is just about the cutest thing I've ever seen. Good luck with him!

He is just way too cute!

So far he hasn't changed a bit. I left him with Mom instead of weaning him when I weaned his sister because he is so small, but he will be weaned this week with a younger group of males.

BUMP for an update. Is he doing ok still. He had such a cute personalty in the vid that I always come back to think about the cute little bugger from time to time. Also did you name him yet. =D

 

[Gumby and Elmo]

Omg he's so cute! More pics pls!

 

[chechinchillas]

I will do some more video and pics. He doesn't look like he has grown and still has the same shaped head and nose of a newborn. Yes, I named him Pippin and call him Pip.

 

[Pookinaround]

He is sooooo cute that his pics shoud be FRAMED!

 

[Laluvschins]

Absolutely precious. One of the cutest things I've ever seen!:hearts:

 

[Zoaea]

Pip, thats a perfect name! I hope the lack of growth isn't a bad sign. D= He better be cute for at least 20 years!!

Update on Pip

Here is an update on Pip. He doesn't seem to have gotten any bigger, but is very active and healthy. He is tiny boned and more narrow than my normal sized babies. He seems to try to stand as tall as he can where as most of my chins that are standing on their back two legs usually just squat down. The little medium ebony male in with him is 6 weeks younger than Pip. Here is a video url on youtube.com:

Of course he kept wanting to stay in the only dark corner of his cage!

Maybe he tries to stand up tall to make himself look bigger. He was in a cage with babies his own age, but they were so much bigger than him that I put him in with the younger male.
