Title: wonky ear
Post by: smokie on August 07, 2010, 05:16:38 AM

Hi, my young boy chinnie has just appeared with a 'wonky' ear... it's not as uprigth and conical as the other one.  Tried putting it up, in case it'd just gone inside out, but it's still a bit crumpled, like someone's sat on it.    ???

This is probably nothing to worry about but just in case, any thoughts?

ps is still the same colour and the other one and he's his usual perky self.

thanks

That is normal.  Some chinchilla ears just do that.  :)

I had a chinchilla Silly who JUST passed away and his ear was like that. It's hilarious. So cute, nothing to worry about. It's just the way their ear is.

My Gallardo likes to have one ear up and one ear down all the time. It's adorable!
