Dont feed raisin to much, in fact, dont feed it ONCE A DAY, SHOULD BE ONCE A WEEK. Large size chin usually dont move much, and some of my large size chin, their daily job is eat, sleep and drink, that's all is their life. If I put them is 'special' job, there will sometime don't perform the special job at all.

haha, I want to see a clumsy chin slip also, must be funny. Check your cage over all jumping platform setting. Do show me a whole picture of the cage, can? I also hv fat fat chin, but they very active, will it be you in UK, tooo cold.. too nice to sleep.

I will take some photos later, show my fat fat chin.

Photos time!



Need to start learn how to bath for these babies.

HUH! Why want to sell? No more interested to take care ah? I think you need to open a thread in garage sale as well.

Yes trying to take the video of those babies chin taking bath, they still begin mentol by their mother... But today a bit better, started to know what is those dust for.

If pos laju accept, I post one for you lor

Anytime in dreamland!

Most of the chinchillas will do that, mine as well. Yes, they want to come out, but not play is to escape! And because they know that is the way to access to outside of cage, cause you always feed him by using that door. You can give some chew stone or chew wood, that will help a bit. Some will not chew on the cage, but stand infront of the cage when they know you going to feed them something.

Yes, they are llike small kits some time, you will know them more when you have them longer. Each chinchilla is very unique character, you will learn more in coming days.

Haiyo! LOVELY! Very cute chin you got there. love the one holding the timothy hay seed. Schbuppi will live for many year to come with you, build him a healthy, happy living enviroment and diet.

Chin weight have very difference, for a guideline, 5 months should be 500gram. However most of pet shop chin wont reach that guide line.

Hello,
First, welcome to chin thread.

I can't really see what your chin is eating, is it a piece of hay?

O... is hay.... I thought is a taugeh!!

Yes, chinchilla does not like ppl to hold, even some that allow you to hold, it will be just a few seconds or so, of cos they is some special chin who allow you to hold them for up to minutes. Chinchilla is more like a WATCH PET, not a pet to cuddle and hold for long period of time, like dog and cat.

Chinchilla's natural character is their curiosity, that's why when you sit there, they will come to jump on your leg then run off, that is chinchilla!But if you want to catch him, he will take you as the hunter and run away. Meantime you can spend sometime to read the front page info and borwse through here, secondly you MUST show us more photos

Dont be too hurry to go get another chin, take some time to familiar and study of this breed, you will find much more enjoyment when you know what they are and their character.

Haha, very cute chin you got there. Don Don, sound great! Do check on other cost involve when you need to transfer don don back, if you need agent to help you to send the chin back to sarawak, let me know, i will give you their contact.

Yes, chinchilla is a great escape artist. Invest a good cage. You can tight it hard now to make sure it does not come out again.

New life born today!



Is violet carrier baby chin! Wait till they grow up abit i take more photos.

The chin baby can only be with new owner is after 10weeks old. Earlier then that it wont be able to survive with any beginer. Bonding with chin not neccesary must be young. Chinchilla will forget you if you 2-3 weeks didnt meet then or smell you. Some chinchilla is too young to be sale in the pet shop, i saw it many time. That will result a bad grow in the later day for the owner, mean your chin will not grow to be bigger in size, maybe just like 300-400g even is an adult.

Yes, your chin i years old for 340g is due to the reason i said above la. However dont bcos they are small size that other chins does not mean they are not cute and adorable ma. You can still love them.

That video already have a link on the first page. That's one of the chinchilla ranch in U.S. Chinchilla's fur is make it into fur coat all around the world.
