Hi my name is emma, and i have two standard chinchillas, timothy and benjamin!!!
i know you shouldn't impulse buy, but that is what i did with these guys, "rescuing" them from petco. they are my first chinnies, and at the time i knew nothing about them. i have had them for about 4 monthes now, and they seem pretty settled. i have been avididly reading everything on this site, but i couldnt register until today. i have so many questions!!
right now my boys are in a smallish petstore cage, but in 2 weeks i am getting a FN! i also have a bunch of online chinchilla stores who i am just waiting to call up and smother with chinchilla orders!
i feed them unlimited timothy hay and oxbow chinchilla pellets, but im not sure how much to give them. i am not entirely sure how old they are, but i would approximate a year or so, and they eat everything i give them. do chins overeat at all? oh and also, how much food should i buy for them? 5lbs?
THANKS!!!
