Help Support Chinchilla & Hedgehog Pet Forum:
I talked to Dave Woods, He will be picking up the new trophies right before the show, so we can't give an exact cost of each trophy. Tho he did said it's around $20. If you want to donate, you can send a check or money order straight to him!

Newbie question: What does an animal handler do at the shows? (Because if it's an excuse to pet or cuddle someone else's chins, I might just have to try it. :hug2: )
The animal handlers bring the animals from the table where are first set up, to the show table, and bring them back again. No you are not suppose to handle/cuddle/pet any chins in the show unless it is before or after the show and you have received permission from the person showing the animal. It's simply picking up a cage and bringing it to another table.

How old do the animals need to be for the baby derby?

I may bring some supplies or toys to sell. Probably some fleece tubes, pillows, hammocks, tents, loofah etc. Depends on what I have time to do beforehand. I only plan to bring one or two chins to show though, but hope to find some nice chins to buy to add to my herd.

Trouble....
They have to be old enough to be weaned, but I think the preffered age is about 10-12 weeks at least.
I think we set it at 10 weeks and up. The chin MUST be weened from it's mother a MIN. of one weeks. Please try not to put any chins that look like adults in the baby derby! I saw some chins that were adults in one baby derby at another recent show.
Also, you need to take discretion when putting a young chin in the derby. The Atlantic Chapter or any of its representatives can not be held accountable for anything that happens because of the size or age of the chin. We do reserve the right to refuse a chin entrance if we feel it is too young/too small/too old.
