Q & A / Chinchilla runt?

« on: July 18, 2015, 09:28:14 AM »

One of my chinchillas is very small and skinny even though he eats so so much. He also drinks a hell of a lot so I know he has a healthy appetite. His eyes are pretty small and his head is skinny. He is 9 months old, I was wondering if he may be a runt!
Do any of you think he could be a runt? I got him from a pet shop so I don't know the breeder to ask them

Q & A / Chinchilla doesn't run around much at playtime

« on: June 14, 2015, 12:07:03 PM »

i let my chin Gonzo out for playtime every day or every 2 days for about 2-3 hours but all he does is sit there not doing anything. I lay out lots of toys and its a pretty big room, quiet with just him and I in there but he doesn't seem to play or run much

Q & A / Chinchilla behaviour change.. Help needed!!

« on: June 10, 2015, 12:45:20 AM »

Ive had Gonzo for a few months & I wanted to buy two chinchillas as I read they are better in twos but he was the only one at the store. Anyway ever since I got him I spent so much time with him and we created a really good bond. I still decided I wanted to get him a companion so I bought another chinchilla Rizzo. I started introducing them and did everything right but they showed no signs of getting along as Rizzo just attacked gonzo all the time. They are in seperate cages in the same room and Gonzo's behaviour has changed dramatically since Rizzo arrived. He isn't eating as much, he doesn't even want to come out for play time some times. I was just wondering if it's normal for gonzo to react this way. My auntie is adopting Rizzo soon so Im hoping things will go back to normal and Gonzo's anxiety will lessen
Sorry this is lengthy!!
