Q & A / Re: My New Chinchilla won't take a dust bath please help!

« on: May 16, 2011, 12:24:10 PM »

I'm new to chins too, but maybe putting him in the bathtub is too exciting and he wants to explore, why don't you try to put the bath house into his cage, and he might use it then.  Then take it out of the cage afterwards so he doesn't use it as a toilet

Q & A / Re: What treats do you feed and how often?

Thanks

So little to no treats is best

Some websites say to give them some fruit or dandelion leaves and stuff, but I don't want to make her sick or anything.

Q & A / What treats do you feed and how often?

There's a lot of different information for what treats and fresh food chinchillas should get, so just wondering what people on here do?

Also, can they have fresh grass in moderation?

Guestbook / New, just got first chinchilla :)

« on: May 14, 2011, 02:35:16 PM »

Hi everyone   My name's Ciara, I'm from Ireland, I'm 23 and studying vet nursing.  I just got my first chinchilla today   She's a little baby female, and a beige-grey colour and just beautiful and so friendly. 

I will be getting her a friend soon, just have to save the money and find a good breeder, because it's hard to find chin-breeders around here.  I got her from a breeder who I know and I'm so glad I didn't go to a pet shop, because she is so healthy and friendly and well handled. 

I also have 4 dogs (Cavaliers), 5 cats, 6 rabbits and 6 guinea pigs.  I breed Lionhead rabbits and different breeds of guinea pigs, and hope to breed chins once I get experienced in keeping them

I look forward to chatting about chinchillas with everyone and learning more
