I went to the sticky and listened to all the sounds from this link:
http://www.chins-n-hedgies.com/forums/showthread.php?t=467
I saved the sounds and was playing them pack to my chins last night, seeing if I could evoke a responce. The only thing they did was stop what they were doing, and just listen. I also noticed thier ears lowered as well. I was hoping to hear them 'talk; back. Nothing.:tantrum:
That night at 3am, I awoke from a dead sleep because one of my chins was BARKING so loud I thought it was the chihuahua. I threw the pillow over my head and tried to ignore it. He would bark about 6-8 times and stop for about what seemed like 10-15 minutes (I was half asleep so I cant be sure, but I did look at my cell phone and noticed the time).
At 4am, I finally got up :banghead:, turned the light on and went to the cage. Quiet. Nothing. Just the 'evil eye'. :impatient: I looked them over, no one was hurt or injured.
I called my wife, who works third shift to whine :tantrum: then went back to bed.
If I read the description on the web site, a bark (and it was DEFINATELY a bark, in fact it was identicle to the sound clip in that I thought it was the computer playing it somehow) means warning or alarm.
Whats up? Did I start something I'm going to regret? They can't confuse this bark and use it as a 'communication' sound or something, can they? Or do I have a 'barker' now? :hilarious:
