      Pro tips-
      1. Get a girl so you don't have to worry about hair rings
      2. use soley blue cloud. For the first time ever, I'm using kaytee brand dust, but she doesn't get clean. I hate it so much. Use any brand of blue cloud dust.
      3. No matter what anybody says, if you are getting an adult that has never had one, don't get a wheel. They won't use it, and it costs $100 or more. (But get one if you have a baby)
      4. Socialize them a lot. They love exploring, being held, cuddling, and being out of their cage. They need the extra attention and time out of their cage, especially if they don't use/don't have a wheel.
      That's it, but it's the stuff most won't say!

      My brother and I did it so it’s a bit tricky but you’ll need two people and maybe a sledgehammer as well to get the pieces to fit. Merlins cage was easier to assemble than Zorro’s for some reason. The parts of each cage fit a little different I guess depending 💕

    Ive found that when i cut the timothy hay into 2 inch length my chinchillas eat it up! So not as much waste now, because it was super frustrating throwing out partially eaten hay (or practically the whole thing ending up on their floor and getting peed upon) which is what was happening in the past. Also, for my other chinchilla that’s pretty picky with the hay, I started feeding her Timothy hay cubes mixed with loose cut hay (no alfalfa or anything at all it’s Timothy hay that’s pressed into cubes.)
    I also put their hay in ceramic bowls

    I have a chinchilla and I bought food from a pet store but it looks different from the one you use, my chinchilla really likes and I think it kinda likes it to much cuz it eats everything when I give it food and when I used food that looked like yours it didnt like it as much and it took it longer to eat it so Im not sure if its also good for it, but I've been feeding it with that food for a month and it seems fine. Btw the food is called selective chinchilla so Im not sure about it. Also sorry about my bad english

    Hey there ! I really need your help... I was with my chinchilla during playtime but I had to do something in his cage so I asked my brother to keep an eye on him, well my chinchilla started climbing behing the bookshelf ( there is smaller space behind it ) thats not the biggest deal. He goes there often I saw it and he can get out. But I wasnt there when he started climbing again and my brother stood there blocking his way out. He panicked and froze. At this point I am already back and I see it. I tell my brother to go away and try to take him out. He is okay but hes also very scared of me.. he doesn't hop on my hand , doesn't take treats from me and is just overall scared ( he was very friendly before the incident ) I dont know what to do , is there something I can do so he starts trusting me again ? I am not letting my bro to be with him anymore tho..

    • @TheChinchillaNotebook
      @TheChinchillaNotebook  3 года назад

      It’s normal for chinchillas to get scared after incidents where they feel panic and trapped. I would take it slow and leave him alone for a little bit before trying to interact again. When you do interact, be gentle and make slow movements around him, offering him treats. Basically just be delicate with him while he learns not to be afraid of you anymore💕
