Thanks you guys! The babies proofing has been done and my nerves are settled  :::grins:: Just bought the scale today. One weighs 49g, and the other is at 53g.

OMG, I hope she's not pregnant again! I mean, I love the little guys but I am not trying to become a breeder. I'm already keeping the babies she has now. If she's pregnant again I'd have to sell them and that would make me a nervous wreck and very stubborn about who I'd sell them to. They were left in the cage probably 6-7 hours before I could separate them. Still a high chance?

I think the chances are very high considering the signs of fighting. Still no guarantee though. The weights of both kits sound like good healthy weights.

I'm a programmer not a chinchilla breeder. I learn by asking questions just like you.
