Just curious if anyone was interested in seeing our newest addition we just picked up? He's a sweet little beige mosaic. You can hardly see the beige on him. I have a few pictures if anyone wants to see an adorable little baby...
 
:useless:

Who wouldn't want to see a cute little baby?!! The title is very misleading!
 
Yeah I know, I'm mean. Gotta make you wait.

Here he is...his name is Jason

He hasn't taken a bath with us yet. He sort of needs one though

getting a 9 week old to sit still is fairly hard to do

Thank you :)! His coloring looks darker in the pictures. At home you can barely tell he's two different colors he looks like he's all cream coloring or something. I guess it's the flash. He needs a bath though so he'll get one tomorrow and he'll hopefully look and feel a lot better.
 
Thank you! I don't think he's used to the luxuries of all the different chew toys and stuff. He's never had options before. The breeder has quite a few so he doesn't give them the applewood and different varieties of hay and stuff. So when he first got here he had the hay block (which he carried around his cage as his "toy" for awhile), and the timothy and orchard grass which he was so happy with. He ate a little bit right away and I think as he settles he'll eat more. I think he thinks he's probably in heaven right now with all the new hay and chew toys and stuff.

Freddy and Jason both came from the same breeder and I know they were both like amazed almost at all the new things that I gave them here. It's cute to see them appreciate stuff that I know they have never had before (like the applesticks they lug around with them to make sure their safe from the imaginary chinchilla trying to steal it away from them).
 
What a cutie! He really does need a bath, I bet he loves that!

What kind of bedding is that? I have never seen anything like it before.
 
Yeah it's bathtime for everyone tonight so hopefully he'll take a good one and get clean.

We use a brand of kiln dried pine it's called Premiere Pet Natural Kiln Dried Pine. We got it at Pet Supplies Plus but I think it's at Petsmart too. We paid like $7 for the HUGE bag at Pet Supplies Plus but it was $12 at Petsmart for a bag of the same size:thinking:.

Yeah the name Jason was my husband's idea so it kind of stuck. I wanted to name him Munchkin because he's so small but my husband said no because eventually he will grow and won't be a munchkin anymore.

I'm just so happy we have all our babies home. My husband said he has divorce papers waiting if I show him another picture of a chinchilla for sale though (sometimes I wonder if he's serious though:unsure:).
 
after the bath

He got his FIRST dust bath today and he had SO much fun! He was in there for awhile just rolling around than did a couple face rubs with his paw and that was it. Now he looks SO much better!

Yep that might just be the cutest Jason I've seen since I had a crush on Jason Speros a zillion years ago!
 
I was so happy that he wanted to come out and sit on my hand. I can't wait until his new cage gets here we just ordered it today so he'll have more room when it gets here to run around.
 
Gorgeous. Definitely looks better after the bath. Congrats!
