This is a bit late sorry!! I had a similar issue with my second chinchilla. She was very skittish and afraid. I got her from a breeder and when that lady picked her up, she was very friendly and didn't bark. However, when i brought her to my house... she was very afraid and barked at everything. If i would open the cage, she would stay in her house barking. She wouldn't even come to treats for me. It just takes time with them. Eventually she/he will get used to you. I just picked up the stuff in her house and forced her to come out. I then brought her to the bathroom where she has nowhere to hide. She slowly got used to me and stopped barking at everything. Believe it or not, she now tries to come out of her cage whenever she gets the time to. It'll just take some time to bond. Good luck!
