Hey everyone! I'm kinda new to here, and I just got my two new Chinnies today! Sandy and Dusty, haha. Pics soon!
Anyhow, they came in a GROSS cage that is half a Prevue Rabbit hutch, with a Super Pet chinchilla cage zip tied on top, that CANNOT be good! However, I got both Chins, (very healthy and sweet I must say) tons of food, treats, and that dreadful cage for only $150 bucks so I really can't complain! Dusty is a male, and he is a standard grey, and Sandy is a GEORGEOUS female **** beige.
Anyhow! :dance3: I have been looking and looking and looking for nice cages tonight online, Craigslist, Ebay, whatever. And I think all my hours of searching tonight have paid off! I found a great deal, check this out:

I know there's a lot of plastic in there, but I am going to take all the ramps out at least and put my own custom wood ledges in there. But the bottom is deep! And the cage is huge! Plus I love the color, it's sooo much better than having a purple or blue cage, which I personally can't stand. In my opinion, nice cages really help play up whats inside! Haha.
This cage on most sites is around $200 to $250! I bought this at PetCo for $109 with FREE SHIPPING! I could faint, I think I did good! Also, if you type in TALK10 as a promo code, it takes another 10% off, which after taxes of course made my total $107! Sold!
Most cages that are a lot smaller are on Ebay for much more than a hundred bucks, and they are flimsy with hardly any pan at best! I didn't want a FN cage, because I had had one awhile ago with a ferret that I had and it was AWFUL moving those cages around, and taking them outside to spray down every once in awhile was pretty much impossible.
I think one will be much easier to tear down and keep clean, my Chinnies are going to love their new mommy, I hope!
Let me know what you guys think! I'm super excited.
It'll be here in less than a week!
