1. I got my chinchilla from Petsmart.
2. Unfortunately, when I was buying her food, I didn't think to ask what kind they were feeding her. But, her droppings are the right size, so I'm assuming that I'm feeding her the right brand, because she hasn't been constapaited (sorry if that's spelt wrong).
3. Nutriphrase gold? I think thats what it is. (I'll check to see if I'm correct tomorrow as I just got in from work and I don't feel like walking down two flights of stairs and waking my dog up).
4. I got timothy hay for her.
5. She did have lava stones, I saw some in her cage at the pet store, but none of them were being chewed on, or had any bite marks on them.
6. I'm not sure how old she is, I have to go to petsmart again to return something I don't need, so I'll be sure to ask. None of the people who were helping me was sure how old she was. However, she was the smallest of the other two she was living with and she's very small. She fits in my palm easily.
7. I give her a tablespoon and a half a day. And about two handfuls of hay, one in the morning and one at night.
8. She was housed with two other chinchillas at the pet store.
