Wow! You know alot about animals! 
My white dog is more egg shell and that has to do to he's breed type. he's a Italian Greyhound and very rare for the breed standard. He getting the egg shell/yellowish tint from he's mom. She's fawn color.
Sebastian lost he's eye from another kit when he was kit. I guess he was picked on and I was told he's sibling tried to eat him. Not sure if that's true or not.
Thank you for all your info!!

WOW! Thank you! 
Only problem is my two dogs might drink the water! 
I do have a Humidifier system running. It has cleared up after I stuck some ointment on her ear.

Joanne,
Sebastian lost he's eye when he was a kit. It's all closed up. It does get goo and I have to wipe it from time to time. The vet says there's nothing to worry. He has some sight in the one eye.
This is the fur color I was talking about. It's weird. I take his photo and the flash washes it out everytime!! He has pink feet and pink ear. I think, it's like my white dog, in cetain lights you can see yellowish tint in he's fur.

dried Pineapple bits are okay too!
Thank you! I was wondering if dried cranberries were safe for Chins!

They are currently getting one dust bath a week. 
Cut back even further? 
I have hotwater that runs through the pipes.

Q & A / Help with Special needs ChinChilla
« on: December 04, 2008, 08:28:56 PM »
I have been looking and read alot of the info you have! I want to know what you think I need or can do for my special needs boy. He lost an eye when he was a kit and the other one is damaged. He is blind in the one eye. So, what kinds of things can I do to make him bond with me. I am not sure of his age. I think he is under two. I have been told he does not like the ball or being loose outside his cage. I'm thinking treats will help to bond with him and time.
Second qestion:
has anyone used eCOTRITION Snak Shak Large Bridge or eCOTRITION Snak Shak Large Couch? They look like they were be fine, but wondered what you guys though of them. I could find any info on here. Thank you!!

HI from Colorado!
I am very new to this breed. I am getting two on Wednesday. They were needing to re homed. The white boy is blind and missing one eye and the grey girl is missing a tail. I guess they were going to be put down and a lady took them in and brought them back to health. She's had them for a little over a year and felt they were ready for a forever home.
This forum has been extremely helpful with helping to understand about the breed before I said yes to taking them. I know there will be lots of questions when I get them!
