They are safe.  We used them with our chinchillas.  Ours loved to chew on it but we found that they didn't even make a dent in it.  You could just see a few teeth marks around the door. Every chinchilla is different though, so if your chinchilla begins to eat large amounts of it you might want to watch his poop for any changes and may need to remove it.

I have heard both that it is safe and it isn't. I have purchased two of the logs. One of my chins demolished one, and the other one has been here for quite a while with just a few teeth marks. I have never personally had a problem with them.
