Hi all, myself and my girl friend just got our first chinchilla "Trevor"
late last night while we were in the room, he started chanting really loudly, a series of about 8-10 loud yells... we looked it up in our book and there was two "calls" that described what it ment.
1. it was an alarm call
2. it was a cry for attentionTrouble is we dont know the difference yet, he did it all through the night after we went to bed, every 2-3 mins he did it, but only when he heard us talking, or the TV in the bedroom, or when we got up for the bathroom lol. They were very loud yells, took us completely by surprise because we had only ever heard a chinchilla squeek when the guy at the pet shop tried to catch him.
Any suggestions?
i do have a recording of it, but i used my mobile phone to record it and i dont think most people would be able to play it back.
Thanks.
Hes 7 Months old and we only bought him yesterday.
