Title: Pimp my cage - now with pictures of Ash in a hammock!
Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 10, 2008, 07:30:56 PM: Dude, this chin has got it all. Three levels, hide-a-way timber home (underneath the second floor), silent state-of-the-art spinnaz, fleece hammock, food galore, apple-flavored sticks to gnaw on and comfy bedding! He's sleeping on the second floor right now (all the dust is from his recent dust bath), but when he's awake, he struts around his fine, palacio estate.

Post by: brawndolicious on February 10, 2008, 07:45:33 PM: how long can you keep a chinchilla in a cage during the day? they'd be fun just to pet because of their awesome fur.

Post by: Madrun Badrun on February 10, 2008, 07:46:17 PM: Thank you. Fleece is warm and soft.

No need to get another chinchilla. I'll just move in and keep him company. Though you have to promise to keep me watered.

You keep them caged pretty much the entire day. They're nocturnal. I let him out for an hour or two at night.

The same thing you do with all pets - feed 'em, pet 'em, play with 'em, etc. I got him a big ball he can roam around the house in that he really digs. I let him loose in my bedroom and he usually chills on my lap while I type on the 'bore. He likes to kick jump off walls and doors. He's cool. He's started to "groom" my hand.

Title: Re: Pimp my cage - my chin lives better than me!
Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 10, 2008, 08:02:09 PM: He will if I don't enclose him in an area for about 15 minutes when I first let him out. Then he's all pooped out from the excitement and I let him free roam.

I heard that rabbits eat their shit to redigest it. before it hits the ground.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 10, 2008, 08:59:43 PM: One of the associates at Petco actually recommended www.chinchillarescue.org, which apparently has a better selection of chins (including violet ones!) and cheaper (just $50 donation). They're located near Menlo Park. After Ash is thoroughly situated, I might get him a buddy.

Post by: DJ_Tet on February 11, 2008, 04:01:15 PM: Does he stink like a ferret?
Title: Re: Pimp my cage - now with pictures of Ash in a hammock!
Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 12, 2008, 02:22:26 PM: Negative. Chins are practically odorless. The only odor they create is from their cage, which does need to be cleaned out at least once a week (I do it on Sunday and do poop sweepings every other day).

Here are more pictures of Ash in his habitat...

Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 12, 2008, 02:34:20 PM: I will definitely document my findings when I attempt to pair him with a rescued chinchilla later this year. He sleeps a lot more since I got him the wheel and ball, but I think he gets wiped from the exercise. He was all awake this morning, but all he wanted was for me to give him a raisin. :lol
