HI, im Mark and im the owner of 2 Gorgeous Chins ( Double and Gizmo ).

They are a mother and daughter ( 2yrs and 1yr approx ). I have owned these 2 gorgeous girls for the last 4 months, and i love them to bits. Have a few toys and accesories for them, but could do with any help or advice on bedding etc? Wanted to know if anyone recommends Hammocks or can suggest anything else to use for them to sleep in. They just seem to cuddle up together at the moment, on their ledge

Thanks
 
Welcome to CnH Mark. :)

Lots of people use hammocks for their chins with success. You can also buy fleece covered tubes and wood houses for them to hide in.
 
Thanks Tunes

Thanks Tunes, i currently have a wooden box but everytime i put hay in it for bedding, they pull it all out, bless them. Wanted something cosy and soft for them to sleep in, so think i may try a Hammock, can't go wrong i guess....as long as it has safe insides

Hi and welcome Mark! I agree that pics are a must! This forum has valuable info...you'll be reading for hours! lol
 
There is no inside to a hammock Mark. It's just pieces of fleece sewn together.

Also, I wouldn't put hay in the house where they sleep. It will just end up getting urine all over it and they won't eat it, thereby wasting it. I just put a house in my chins cages and they all like to pile inside and cuddle together where they can't be seen. It's a hiding spot more than anything else.
 
Welcome Mark! The housing and supplies section should have tons of threads with picture examples of cages. Also, I have a website where I sell fleece products. It wouldn't be worth the shipping fees for you to order anything, but you may get some additional ideas from looking at it.
 
Thanks all

Thank you all, i feel like im going to get many ideas for my girls from you all.

I will check out all advice and post pics for you all to see tonight.lol
