After months of wishing, it finally happened; I got my first chinchilla on the 9th and I'm in love!
He's a little two month old ebony, who was born and raised at a pet store with caring employees,
So he's very social and adapting. I did a lot of research before getting him and got all the proper necessities so I do know the basics, but I'm overly concerned and cautious with my new baby so I do have a few questions ;
Firstly, how often do chins pee? He's been eating, pooping and drinking just fine but he hasn't peed since his first hour home, is that normal? And also, he goes about and plays for 20 minutes among his cage and then he either hides away or stares into space for 30 mins. I assume its because he's a baby and gets tuckered out quick but I'd like someone else's opinion, oh and he hasn't slept for more than an hour straight, just lots of lil naps, so is there anything I should be concerned about?
