My Chinchilla's First Playtime!

- Hi everyone!! (scroll for cage/accessory products link 👇)
Finally posting Finn's very first playtime with me, it went so well! He's adjusted beautifully in the last few weeks, I'm thrilled that it's been going as good as it has. He and Knox has started bonding, which is also going extremely well - better than I could have ever hoped. Here are a few key points in this video for socializing with a new, unfamiliar, or uncomfortable chin:
1. Offer treats and toys by hand, but don't chase!
2. Give them a place to feel safe and hide; they're prey animals, this is a natural and normal behavior and shouldn't be seen as a negative!
3. Let them climb on you without touching them right away; you want to let them know your body is a good jungle gym alternative without the threat of your hands and arms grabbing.
4. Have lots of toys, treats (small pieces), and dust out for them to enjoy and be distracted by.
5. Absolutely talk to them! Softly at first, then full volume so they get used to it.
6. Do short sessions, 5-10 mins at first, then longer each time. I'd say no longer than 25-30 mins a session as chins overheat easily :)
7. If you're having trouble picking up your chin and getting them to and from their cage for these playtimes, use the dust house as a transporter; usually they hop right in!
Hope this helps, can't wait to share our next video which is Knox and Finn's first play time! Prepare for cuteness overload...

He's such A cute little snow ball
Finn is so cute and playful! He really enjoyed playing around you! I would love to see Finn and Knox meet each other for the first time on your next video! 🐭🥰
Its so cute seeing how they live and move. Just a little floof scampering and running about❤😊😊😊
It's so awesome that you got a white chinchilla. White critters are my favorite! They're like little angels. 😇
Finn is so cute 🥰
Cute lil fluff
Love Finn's tail too!
He’s so pretty! His half black half white tail is so unique! And the fade in his fur is also really unique! I love the new member! Hope he feels like he belongs there! I have to say, he is adorable.
That's one of the cutest things I've ever seen! So adorable! Thank you for sharing ☺️☺️😄
I love this channel so much like I cannot express how much I love these floofy goobers
Finn is so cute ❤and Glad he is adjusting to his new surroundings 💕💞♥️🥰🤩💖
Awww Finn's already so comfortable with you. Great job building your relationship! I was wondering why you decided to have his playtime in the bathroom instead of in their room?
P.S. It was kinda funny to see you sitting in front of the toilet, reminded me of all my hangovers haha
Oh lord not the hangover reminder 😅 haha good question though, I did that because it’s a neutral territory with no smells of the other chins. This will also be the place I bond Knox and him for the first few times so they aren’t agitated by other chin smells. Plus, they’re less likely to be territorial in a place neither of them smell like or claim!
I love chinchillas I’m always gonna watch every single new video you have😂❤😊
Oh, he's so cute.
Yay Finn!!!!
He has beautiful coloring!
so adorable! ❤
I love his tail!
Look at his cute grump face
Beautiful he is.. I learned a lot of what to buy and care for them.. So exciting to have one of my own too..thank you I appreciate😊
Finn has secret plans to take over the world
How cute 🥰🥰
Yeeeaaaaahhhhh new boy!!!
omg and hes meeting my favorite boy next! great fit, knox is such a laid back kinda guy, from what ive seen! perfect for helping him get acclimated! excited to see the two best boys meet!
with knox the chin and finn the new chin, the fun will never end, etc etc
He must really love you he’s so cute and tiny :)
I comment on some of ur vids bc I love ur vids I look forward to seeing more . Oh and I have some chinchillas of my own and pretty cute
Aww thank you! And that’s awesome, chins are funny pets 😊
🥰👍👍👍💐 CUTE
I think that tail is deserving of some corn rows.... Box braids- nah, too much work... Maybe a lovely Dutch Mohawk Braid?! Oh the options with that poofaloooofaliciously spectacular tail!!
(Also, I SINCERELY admire your self control in not just wanting to reach out and scoop him up/pet him every 2.3 seconds?!)
I can't believe he didn't try to eat the molding ❤❤
Ahhhhhhhhh it so cute
What is that octagon thing? I saw it once on Amazon. Now I'm just losing my mind. 😅
I love your videos but everytime i start watching one my chin gets so jealous
Finn!
Please make a vid of one of the chinchillas holding a mini brands purse or something wearin lil clothesss
do you think a chinchilla could live with mice or its a bad idea? i think that maybe it could cause some little fights for toys and stuff... i have pet mice and would like to have a chinchilla
Early
❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️
❤
please do more chinchilla care videos
🥺🥺🥺
How long do they live?
I have a question is white wood from Home Depot safe for chinchillas
Their common board is kiln dried, untreated pine so that is safe! I can’t remember what exactly white wood is
Me and my dad were confused because it said it was pine but it says on the website it is white wood.
Hi sorry I am late for the video
I'm if somebody knows my chinchilla has some sort of eye cancer from plastic stuff in her cage if someone could tell me if that's what it is that will be good
Don't he shy fork him over
So beaitifull momma Ophelia's friend. Is she single too?
😡
Hi pin pls
What do you get from this?
