Greetings! Im new to the forums! Can anyone post pictures of their chins' cages and/or habitat setups? Would be interesting to see how far some pet lovers have gone to give their chillas the best care and housing I am still redesigning the cage levels. But in the meantime heres a picture of Cleopatra

I will take more pics on saturday. the whole cage is made of untreated pine. the only thing they have chewed on is the house that I made them, and they have definately made it their own.

Mine don't, they pee in their pottys, plus you save a BUNDLE on bedding doing it this way.
