Sadly I've heard a LOT of chins have tragically died with these hay balls,I used them myself until I discovered this,we are lucky nothing bad happened to ours but even so it's just not worth the risk,plus our chins wasn't eating much hay with them and as hay is their main food source (not pellets as I previously believed) they need as much as poss,our chins have a chin IBS so if they don't eat enough hay they get a mucousy jelly with bubbles in all around their poops so weve desperately tried many different kinds of hay holders but I've found ours eat more hay when I just put a loose pile of hay onto a shelf for them,they slap the hay all round the cage while sorting out the best bits to eat lol but I don't mind as we do daily cleans.
I'm shocked though that with all the reports of these hay balls causing many fatalities to chins that there isn't a warning printed on the packaging to warn pet owners that they are unsafe for chins.
Thank God that you got to your fur baby just in time hun,many haven't been so lucky
Merry Christmas everyone 🎉🎅🎉

Thank you ever so much for replying lori,as a kit Princesses eating and pooping were fine,but since being housed permanently with mum since 8wks it's been harder to monitor who's eating what but their daily allowance was gone at each feed,but certainly since separating mum and princess she's not been eating much,her poops have always been kinda thin but the vet said cuz there's nothing they can see it may be that's normal for her,but I will take her back with the advice you've kindly given and hope it helps figure out what's wrong with my baby girl.Thanks again hun,I'll update as soon as I know anything 😃

Hi guys I'm ceta from the uk,we have 9chins,we sadly had to hand rear our 3youngest (Mucki,Gizmo,and Princess) who are now nearly 2yrs old.the boys are together and Princess was housed with mum (Chinny).over the last few months Princess has started attacking us quite viciously,and Friday night she turned on Chinny too,she was so savage towards Chinny that she ripped my hand to pieces because I put my hand in to protect Chinny whilst my husband got the carpet tube to get Chinny out quickly and safely without Princess being able to chase her.weve separated them but Princess continues to attack us this way,we love Princess very much so rehoming is not an option,we need to help her! ANY advice is greatly appreciated,Thank you 8:o)
