Q & A / Chinchilla picky on hay

« on: August 29, 2013, 09:51:27 AM »

I don't know if this is common or not but my chin will not eat any of his hay that falls on the ground.  I have a cage ball to hold his hay and if anything falls out of it and touches the ground he will not eat it.  I wouldn't consider this a problem except he probably only manages to eat about half the hay and the rest is wasted making a mess.  Is this normal or is there a better way to feed him hay so I don't have to go through so much hay?

Q & A / Re: chinchilla thinks my fingers are food?

I haven't had him around any other people yet.  I only got him about 3 weeks ago.  However, he is fairly tame.  He is perfectly comfortable running up to me and sitting on my lap before bouncing off and he has never bit me out of anger I believe.  I think this trait only started after the first time I gave him a treat.

Q & A / chinchilla thinks my fingers are food?

My chinchilla always tries to bite my fingers hard when I when I hold my hands out for him to smell or give him a treat. How do I get to not wanna eat my hands?
