My picture needs updated. I went crazy buying things since getting him 2months ago.  ::silly::

That's what I would guess them to be. They're gorgeous!

Thank you for the reply! It makes me feel good that he seems happy in his new home. :)

I guess I'm just used to seeing them constantly hiding in pet stores.. It makes sense that they want to be tucked away from all the noise and strangers. :(

For some reason, there are no pet stores around here that sell sleep n ledges, lava ledges, or chinchillers. I've heard they're discontinued here. :( I ordered some online from Flowertown Chinchillas. When my ledges come in, I'm going to take out the fleece lined ramps.

I don't have a wheel yet either, but I'm ordering the 15" Chin Spin! :)

General Chat / Sleeping in the open?

I apologize if this is a silly question, but I'm a new Chin owner as of Friday! :D

I've noticed that my chin, Eli, doesn't sleep in his little home/hideouts. He just sleeps in a random open place in his cage. Is this normal? I thought they normally liked being confined/hidden while sleeping.. Maybe he doesn't like his hideouts. Should I buy him a new one? I just want to make sure my little one is comfortable!

Does any one else's chin sleep in the open?  ::shrug::

I bought the Ferret Nation double unit.. I have yet to purchase my Chinchilla, but it does seem like a sturdy, spacious cage. I am hoping he/she will enjoy it. :)

I've been wondering about this too, and hoping to find some Canadian based stores.
Thanks for the post!

General Chat / Cheapest Site to Order Exercise Wheel?? (Canada)
« on: November 10, 2014, 10:55:56 PM »
I can only find US websites that sell Chinchilla-safe wheels. :(

It's pretty frustrating that pet stores don't sell them. The only ones around here are plastic, and only 12 inches at largest. I know that the wheel should be at least 14" and NOT made of plastic.

Wheels like the Chin Spin and Silver server are between $50-$75.. Which I might be willing to pay that price, but my estimated shipping is $40 or more. Making the wheel over $100. Do any of you know any Canadian websites that sell these wheels, or similar wheels?

If not, I'll end up paying the $100+ because I do feel it is important to have. I just hope to find a better deal/lower shipping cost!  ::silly::

Aww!! Cute Halloween photo. And I just love your girls. They seem really chill and sweet. I'm hoping to get a mosaic Chin, too. :)

Oh wow, how scary it must have been to find him like that!! :( I'm glad he is ok...

Thank you for sharing this, it is an eye opener. We expect Chinchilla made things to be safe for them. I am going to be really careful about what I put in my future Chin's cage.

Guestbook / Hi, Newbie here!

Hello all!

I've had an interest in Chinchillas for quite a while now, but only recently have been looking into owning a Chin. I've been doing a lot of research, and making a checklist of what I need and want for my Chin. I'm really excited about preparing for my new Chin, and I thought this would be a good community for me to join if I have any further questions... and of course I will share pictures and stories of my new baby when he/she is finally here!  :)
