My eldest has asked for a Chinchilla for her birthday (not til the summer) ....it's been many years since I had one and I've forgotten a lot of it all now......except that they need a sand bath at least twice a week !!! |

I don't have any personal experiance of Chinchillas but my friends son ( adult ) has two...........I can recall that she used to moan about her electric bill when her son lived with her , as he ran a chiller unit thing during the summer months to keep the animals cool . Are they very temperature sensitive ? |

I think her intention is to let he/she out as soon as she gets home from school every evening Joy lol. She'd LOVE it if it could live in her room !!! |

If my memory serves me correctly Amanda they are due to their dense coats....but you could buy marble cooler blocks for them .......not sure if they still do them now though? |
