  7. Chinchilla Discussion
    Being I work at the Zoo, I have become used to logging everything we feed, or behaviors we notice in our animals. I am starting to do this with my pets as well, which will help if they get sick to see if anything changed in behavior/feeding. I was wondering how much pellets to feed two adult...

  10. Chinchilla Discussion
    I walked into the chin room this afternoon and saw what I thought was a hay cube in Sage's cage, but couldn't remember putting any hay cubes in there recently. Upon closer examination, I found a very premature standard kit. Not sure if it was male or female as it was already dead and I have...

    Do those of you with multiple piggies notice that they make alot of noise at night? I took care of a guinea pig for a couple months and she was always quiet at night but she lived alone so that might be why.

    The last 3 morning Tabatha has had wet night feces stuck to her bottom. I have cleaned it up with human tush wipes. I am going to call the vet - actually I have twice and it was busy both times.

    So Peanut has been at the vet for over a week now. I originally took him in because he had a watery eye. He was on SMZ antibiotics for 2 weeks and then was prescribed Baytril for a week. I went out of town and left him to be boarded so that his medicine would get given while I was gone...

    I posted this on another forum as well, and didn't want to retype it. :lol: My chinchilla Monkey has pretty much stopped eating his hay. He's gone in for dental work due to this, because his teeth are not getting worn down properly. I have tried many different types of hay. Oxbow, Alfalfa...
