Oh boy, another older kit with the "baby cry!"

I have just recently gotten used to the fact Marika still uses her baby cry to get attention. My mom's three month old kit, Jett has just started this behavior. For a month he was housed alone and never cried. After tragedy struck and I lost Phillip Jett was introduced to Terrance. They were introduced the beginning of last week. I assumed the baby cry was coming from Marika until last night, I discovered it was Jett.

I guess I'm just confused as to why he wouldn't show this behavior for a month, and then start doing it when he was introduced to Terrance. I would have assumed he would have been crying when he was alone?

He is talking to the other chinchilla. When he was alone, there was no one (chin-wise) to talk to.

What she said. He's trying to get someone else's attention.

I love the baby talk, but the chins don't sleep in my room though. If that was the case I don't think it would be as cute.
