Hello Everyone

A male chinchilla came to live with me today. The
people were moving and didn't want to take him with
them. I bought him for $50.00 which is a good price.
Petland wanted $170.00 to special order me one. I
hadn't been able to find on anywhere.
He is 2 1/2 years old and very friendly. He is gray
and I'm trying to think of a name for him. I bought a
Leo Braun wheel for him from Chin World. It is the
Cadillac of chinchilla wheels at a whopping $99.00. It
has barrings and it was so heavy I could hardly hold
it up to fasten it to the cage. He is running in it
right now. I just hope my husband doesn't ask me how
much I paid for it. Ha! Ha!
A chinchilla lives as long as a dog, so I won't have
to say good-bye as soon as all my guinea pigs. The
oldest living chinchilla on record was 30 years old.
They are a lot like a guinea pig, except they are
noctural and jump around. I think he is going to be
fun.
