Hammock Surprise
« on: November 27, 2006, 09:23:09 AM »

I was in another room one day when i heard a noise from the chin room, the usuall stuff being moved across the cage noise, and when i came over to check on em, i was greeted with the sight of a chinchilla tail sticking out of the hammock, with a bulge in the middle. Squeak had ripped the bottom layer of fabric's corner open, and crawled inside! I took a photo and made sure it was allright, i was thinking he was stuck till he turned around, stuck his head out, and went back inside. Looks like ill need a new hammock. ill post the picture when i get back home.

Quite possibly the strangest thing they have done since ive had them.

only one of them turned out ok, has the cage bars blocking some of it, and its a top down view, but you can see the tail and the bulge. http://img364.imageshack.us/img364/3015/hammockgy6.jpg

That is too cute!  I just bought a hammock to test out in one of the cages, but I hadn't gotten around to puting it up yet.  I can't wait to see what they'll do with it now!

well they really seem to like it in there, and they dont seem to be eating the fabric, so i left in in for a little longer untill i can make a sturdier one, now they ripped a small "window" in the middle of the hammock along the front side of the cage (left of picture) so they can see me coming.

 ::silly:: Too funny, these little guys NEVER stop amusing us do they!  I think we should ALL get together and write a book on chinchilla antics!  "The Chinchilla Club Community Forum's Chinnie Antics".  What do ya'll think?

Hammocky hammocks actually makes something like what you describe to your hammock called a slumber tunnel.  Maybe one of thier chins did the same thing and that is how that idea got started.  What a cute pic. rofl
