message jube423 about this ad This girl is 6 months old. Her rehoming fee is $300. The average life span of a healthy chinchilla is 15-20 years so it is quite the commitment. *They require a specialized diet due to their sensitive digestive track. Pellets and hay are really the only way to go with these little critters. *They are heat sensitive. The ideal temperature for a chinchilla is between 60-65 degrees. Technically, they should do fine up to 70 degree, but this is something to be mindful of if you dont use your air conditioner in the summer. *They are nocturnal. They tend to sleep during the day and play at night. *They do like to jump and play so prepare to have a cage with some ledges. They chew plastic and it can be harmful for them so you want to avoid that when looking for a cage. Please contact me if you have any questions. |
