Ever since you setn me apples ticks my guys went nuts over them too.

They also like mulberry branches and the swinging chew toy platform and hide-away hammock I got from you.

Mine adore tunnels. I sometimes stack little bits of wood against the wall and they run through, then turn back and knock them down and popcorn and run off. I sit with my knees bent and they run under and keep circling back around. They love trying to run up my sleeve when I let it hang down. anything tunnely they just can't get enough of.

My chins are going bonkers for my apple bombs. They seem bored with the sticks, but they do love those so much.

Oh they look cool! Where do you get them?

I make them!   
I can barely keep them in stock, between my chins and everyone elses. I have customers buying several at once, because their chins just enjoy them so much. They last a long time and seem to be a lot of fun, in that the chins can roll them around their cages, and there is so many pieces to chew on (there is about 80 - 100 pieces of apple on each piece.) on each ball, that it seems to be endless fun for the chins.

My friend Susan makes pecan balls which are similar but made with pecan instead of apple.

Do you use glue on them?

[lilchinchilla]

If you want to call it glue, but all it is, is flour and water which makes a paste.

I like to keep my toys all natural as possible, for the chinchillas.   

 My friend in Arizona uses the exact same technique with the natural glue. It's completely transparent when it is dry and bonds incredibly well and strong. Don't use the clay recipe on there for glue, as that is toxic, but the others mentioned with flour and water are non toxic and 100% safe to use and make.
