I could possible be wrong about its age. The woman that was with me said she thought the lady said 9 weeks. It was with its mom when I got it though.

I bought her at a large flee market in Ohio and the lady claimed to be a breeder. She had probably 10 other chinchillas there for sale varying of age and sex. She said it was 4 weeks old, put it in my cage, then gave it alfalfa cubes and said it would be good. There were other breeders with her and they all agreed.

Q & A / New chinchilla owner
« on: October 14, 2013, 10:09:36 AM »
I've recently purchased a 4 week old female chinchilla and have yet to make it feel completely comfortable in its new home. I've researched everything to do to help it but it seems like there's something different about this one. Everything I've read says that it won't let you pet or hold it until it gets used to you. It also said they will still run around and such but limit their interactions with you. Mine however, will let me pet it all day and it even lets me hold it. I took it out of the cage and set it on my lap and it just laid there; contradicting everything I've read. Even when I leave it in a room by itself it just sits there. It never hardly moves. Every time I've tried anything with it was in the evening so I don't know what else it could be. Any ideas?
