Added on April 7, 2009, 9:48 amChinchilla is a RODENT. They will run away when you try to catch him, you can just sit down, wait, don make big movement, keep something on your hands, like a simple treat, alfalfa? later he will come to look for you, feed him.

Letting your chin free run in the room you must make sure your room is chin proof. Chin proof mean they cannot access to any wire, or thing that may be poison for them to bite. You can let your chin run in the room for a short period of time AT NIGHT, not at day, not in the morning. Chinchilla is a Nocturnal Animals, they sleep at day, active at night. Don't wake him up or disturb him while at day time even you see him awake, he still need rest.

I have chinchilla that is very hard to catch when you let them 'run free'. You can see them bounce around the wall. That's why you cage must be long enough for him to bounce and must be solid cage.

How you feed him? i man your routine of his diet.

haha, control abit on the raisin, just keep to 1-2 raisin a week. You can also use a healthy treat like alfalfa. They will come and grap from your hands as well.

Alfalfa is a type of plant. We usually call it alfalfa, but is called Alfalfa hay for pet owner. SCBOY, i will suggest you read those link on the front page, alfalfa is 1 of the very basic hay for all small animal to use, you must know it.
Alfalfa need to use it wisely, it can be very helpful and it can very harmful if you dont know how to use it in right time, right situation and right amount.

wow, 1 week beijing!!!! Well, beside feeding alfalfa hay, ask your friend give timothy hay, that is part of their main diet, infact is very main 'part' of chinchilla diet.

Zeru, chinchilla will bite when they get really scare, over all they dont bite at all.

Jacklene, we would love to see your chins as well, do post up photos to share with us.

This is my standard grey, while she is sleeping.

Finally your chin pictures is here.

The ear spot is the gen problem, your beige is a bit too much of spot for me, these is pet chin. But you can still love them. Which pet shop you get from?

I see. Pet chin mean that chinchilla is under a Pet quality in over all appearance.

Wah.. then you must be very happy got this pair of chins. Show us their mansion.

Other kind of quality called chinchilla as well, their grade is difference and fall under name as "Quality" chinchilla.

If you can as big as possible the wheel, the better. However you need to monitor are they over heat by running on the wheel. Plastic wheel have difference quality as well, you can look for the good quality wheel. Silent wheel is too small. You can look for their sanko wild wheel, is selling they as well. RM1XX.

Marchioro is a good cage, can last you for many years. Chinchilla chew on everything, anything chewable, they will chew it.

What you need to do now is , give them dust bath, slowly it will improve. And do you know how old is your chins? if your chin does not take care well at the growing stage, no matter how you feed them they wont grow bigger. The most important thing is their are healthy, eating, jumping and active. Your must generously give hay, lots of timothy hay + a little bit alfalfa hay. With the well care and right diet, your will see a big improvement on your chin's over all appearance, that need time.

Male chin is usually very tame, but it depends, each chin is difference, most chin dont like you to hold them, they are more like a 'watch pet'.

Raisin, to me, i dont feed. If you want to give, once a week, 1. Or once a month, 1 also. Look for those is organic.

Why not get a flat base cage, the wire base is not good for the feet. You can put thick paper now.

For the rules of the forum, we should not discuss about breeding, and when to put them together? When you are prepare and study most of the knowledge of chinchilla and breeding of chinchilla, then you know weather you can put them together. I will not encourage 'putting' pet store chin in the 'same' cage unless their same sex.

I saw 3 there now. Very cute. Love those chinchilla face

So far i have not meet any vet that have much experience on treating chinchilla, however if their is no choise, you can visit dr. siva in animal medical centre.

That is her 'breed'. Your chinchilla is not 2 months old. At least 3-4 months old. If it is PW ppl tell you, they must be giving the wrong info. What ever imported chinchilla as it claim, it need at least 3-4 months old enable to be flight over. And usually is 6 months old.
