Exactly!!

ARE YOUR SHORE ABOUT THAT

@@troyjohnon6294 The oldest chinchilla ever was "Radar", he was 29 years 229 days old when he died. He died in 2014.

Troy Johnon yes they live 15-20 years in captivity

I believe the the short tail Chinchilla can live up to 10 years, but the long tailed chinchilla can live up to 20 years.

Andrew's Animals Right? I love saying it haha

Jesus loves you pray to god!!

I'm living for this.

It sounds like chin peelers

@@warthogvolgs29 *God, but yes Amen!

Bueno

Congrants! Have you gotten one yet? I'm currently stuck between getting guinea pigs or a Chinchilla😩

I'm so glad you liked it and found it useful!:D

You need to do a lot more research

I never knew that im thinking of getting an chinchilla. If I get an chinchilla would I have to get another one so the first one is not lonely or are they not social animals.

@@isabelrodriguez-yu2yy they’re like cats

@@malikeahalll8449 thanks

@@malikeahalll8449 Not at all true!!! You should always get a pair!

Me too! 😂😂😂😂

Kiara Ann same this vid gives terrible info don’t actually do this

@@olivia-fi7ms o my 😞.. Thats so sad im so sorry

@@standingbackstandingby8744 i know and i dont want anyone else going trough that because it costed a arm and a leg to go to the vet

My old chinchilla had one. It ripped off his leg.

How do they get hurt? I dont understand 🙈

Please don't follow what she says!

@@brimarie4607 ?

Do not listen to her. She is spreading tons of wrong information. Go watch The Chinchilla Notebook. She actually knows what she is talking about.

Dexter Letterman oh instead of getting a chinchilla I got a guinea pig cause I couldn’t find a chinchilla no where but ty tho

Avi Vlogs That good. Just making sure you were being safe/

Thank you!:)

IKR !!!! U prob forgot about making this comment so I will be the first to comment in a year lol

Chinchillas needs ju,mping more than running.

Fehrplay89 I know that but they should still have a wheel to run on lol

Christian Bragg she has a saucer wheel in the cage

which chins hate cos they're wobbly and they fall off a lot. next.

lainey marie you really just said chinchillas hate wheels?? LMAO get your cash up and buy the chin spin which is made for chinchillas and your chin wont fall off and it doesn't wobble. I cant believe you just said chinchillas hate wheels LMAOOOOOO

I recommend watching The Chinchilla Notebook instead. She’s way more informed.

No she doesn’t. A lot of stuff in this video is wrong. I suggest you go watch The Chinchilla Notebook on KZfaq. She is WAY more knowledgeable.

Dexter Letterman I dunno I did a few cross reference and this video really did provide good info. It’s a great start for people who no nothing about chinchillas

Bitter Sweet Then they were most likely wrong as well. Most of the stuff in this video was completely incorrect.

Dexter no your wrong

There are a lot of things she said that are incorrect and harmful to your chinchilla. Unfortunately google is not your friend when is comes to chinchillas:( The chinchilla notebook is a great way to start. If you need any more info or you have any questions my instagram is @ brerayman, feel free to dm me! I have been raising chinchillas for 8 years now:)

Wait rasins are toxic?!? I searched it up and it said it's a fine treat :( welp I'ma go throw away my rasins now 😂

Are raisins really toxic? I've read many reputable sources dedicated to chinchillas that say that it's completely fine and just to feed them in moderation due to the Hugh sugar content

@@clairelim9920 they are considered toxic because, like you said, they are high in sugar. Since chinchillas don’t normally have raisins or other food high in sugar in their diet, excess consumption of these foods can put them at risk for diabetes and other diseases.

Samee 😄

Hynexo Please watch “The chinchilla notebook” they have much better info on caring for these cute babies. Some of the info this girl said is incorrect and harmful. Congrats on your new chins!

You are correct in your findings..DEFINITELY DON’T FEED THEM THAT ANYMORE PLEASE, & YES SWITCH ASAP TO OXBOW ESSENTIALS (RED BAG). I Highly Recommend Pretty Much ALL Oxbow Products For The Safest Chinchilla Products On The Market, Highly Trusted Brand. 👍🏼🐾❤

@Leann M I suggest watching the chinchilla notebook. She is much more informed and gives great tips on how to bond with your chin. Also it is normal for them to nibble as long as they aren't biting you. He may be barking at you because he might just want to be left alone but I am not an expert. Just trying to help.

No, not informative. Don’t listen to this girl many information in here is FALSE

Chris Briggs I am not sure if you still need this information, but you should deep clean your cage once or twice a week and just sweep up the cage every day or every other day. Also a dust bath should be given once or twice a week!

You sweep out the cage every day and you deep clean once a week. Look up fleece liners on Etsy. That’s what you put in the bottom.

Omg same

They can chew on the metal bars but it’s a sign that they don’t have enough toys in their cage.

Ir is not informative. Most of this information is wrong. Go watch The Chinchilla Notebook to get accurate information.

I think they just run around the room?

The cage comes with a plastic pan on the bottom that you wrap fleece around

Chinchillas need water bottles, bowls can allow a chinchilla to get wet which is extremely unsafe:)

I wouldn’t just because they’re hindgut fermenters and that could cause a blockage. I’d stick to things like wood chew toys and hay toys.

Fleece is way better than bedding as it’s easier to clean. Beddings you will have to clean wayy more! Plus some of the bedding flies out of the cage.

The use the bathroom everywhere they go. The room should be under 70 at all times. The colder the better.

I wouldn’t ever give them to him. Maybe once a year, but using something like goji berries or rosehips are much better.

Chinchillas are a semi-desert species. So they are not designed to handle sugar or oils well. They cannot eat any fresh or dried fruits or vegetables or like seeds or nuts. When they consume things like this, it created gas in their stomach; however, unlike cats or dogs, they cannot release the gas build-up. This is called GI Stasis and can be fatal in chinchillas. Here are a few safe treat options: one plain cheerio per day, dried rose petals, rose hips, plain shredded wheat in moderation, etc. They make a lot of safe treat bundles on Etsy! Just check out Pandamonium Pets!

Lara Waldron yes, but giving a variety of things to chew on is great to! Wood chews are perfect tho

I got this one from Petco actually!

DONT LISTEN TO HER GET IT AT CRITTERNATION.COM I GOT THE MODEL 162

@@JaneD0e Thanks for the plug. Imma buy from here.

XxyupitzstilltxrixX Roblox the website doesnt work anymore.

Timothy is the best for them. You shouldn’t get anything else.

Chinchillas can have Timothy Hay, Orchard Hay, and Alfalfa. Timothy hay should be the primary hay that you give them or the only hay. Orchard hay can be given along with timothy hay to add variety. Alfalfa is usually just for growing babies and pregnant females. This is because it has a high calcium content; however, some owners give a pinch as a treat. I personally would avoid giving alfalfa as it can cause bladder stones.

Im not sure but if you plan on getting a chinchilla, dont use that type of fabric they could easily chew it just like the plastic

They are most likely used as bedding but they are not safe. The best options for bedding is pine shavings or anti pill fleece, so they cant injest it:)

Critter nation or ferret nation

Hi

If they are bonded they should be able to share everything! If they are not bonded, please research “how to bond chinchillas”. Multiple hides/huts are always a good idea depending on the size of your cage

Bre Rayman Thanks!!
