1• Best hay brand? I'm thinking about switching to Small Pet Select Timothy hay or Oxbow

2• Playtime? Is it better to let my chin out for a long period of time once a day or a couple shorter periods of time a day?

Pretty much it! Is it normal for her to run around then take a break during playtime? And repeat?

Hay is great for chins. The brand doesnt matter. Just look for nice green hay that smells fresh.

Play time isnt necessary for chins but is nice to offer if you are able to do so in a safe area. Length depends on your chins age and abilities. Chins under 6 months shouldnt have play time at all. 6 months to a yr old no more than 15 minutes. Over a year you can do longer times but I personally dont advise over 30 minutes in a session. Playtime advice will vary depending on who you ask. If you are getting your chin from a breeder, be sure to ask them what they advise. Some breeders health guarentees dont cover playtime accidents
