General Chat / Prospective Chinchilla Owner
« on: January 03, 2016, 10:21:05 PM »
Hey all!
I am new to the forums, but I have been lurking around Chinchilla related websites for a while now. Nice to meet you all!
I currently live in a large one bedroom apartment, and am considering getting a Chinchilla for a pet. I am no stranger to rodents. I had a rat named ETT growing up (lived over 5 years), and would also baby sit my cousins Chinchilla from time to time.
What is the general difficulty level for them? Is it hard for newbies to break into ownership?
I went to a nice chinchilla adoption center next to my house, and they are reasonably priced (125 for two Chinchillas), though they require specific habitat cages to allow ownership (4 foot ferret nation cage). Does that seem reasonable for a price?
Thanks!
