Well, they likely won't be living all together once our new girl arrives, but I will be the proud owner of four lovely ladies come August. I have wanted a dark tan since before I owned my first chinchilla and she will be coming to me after the Shindig. I haven't decided firmly on a name, but I think I have it down to either Alice or Urza. I haven't decided definitively if I will try intros after the quarantine period, but I likely won't as I don't think Scully would take to another chin on her territory and I definitely wouldn't want to disturb the trio's delicate balance! She has a twin sister, which is funny, because that means all of my chinchillas have been born in litters of twin girls! I have thought about bringing both of them home but I don't think hubby would agree to that, LOL! Maybe I can just say...hmm...look, there's an extra in here!
I am very interested to see how dark she becomes, because she was actually born lighter than her sister and is now quite a bit darker! Tans are very interesting in the way that they change color throughout the first few years. I think this will be my last chin for awhile...I would love to fill the basement with decked out chin mansions but that's my hubby's "man cave" and I'm lucky he has agreed to let me expand my "farm" as much as I have since we've been together
Without further ado, here are a couple of photos of the little girl. I can't wait to meet her!
If I do intro her and it goes well (likely not, but you never know) instead of a violet oreo, we will have a grape and peanut butter jelly sandwich on burnt toast...LOL!
