I've never done a poll before....first time for everything huh? LOL

Most of the stuff I offer in the Chincessories store is natural, but I do have some colored items. I've been asked by a few people to color and flavor Loofah, and willow, etc and I'd like to see if there was enough interest in it for me to color other things as well as to continue coloring the balls.

I've already colored a bunch of loofah and it came out awesome:apple:...It is flavored as well as colored, but the colors are bright and vibrant, I love it LOL I'm using highly concentrated food coloring...all natural, and safe for consumption :) I've also colored willow balls and they came out great as well :) I can color/flavor just about anything in the store..cholla, maize mats, any of the willow stuff, etc. Right now I'm doing red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple...rainbow colors, but I'm planning on adding some other colors like Maroon, hunter green, and teal to the mix..I could even do black and white LOL

Please let me know your opinion on this. I'd like to know if anyone is even interested in the colored stuff before I go nuts and color everything in the store ROFL...its actually pretty fun. I will still keep all of my natural stuff, of course, but I plan on adding the colored/flavored version to the store as well :)

Thank you in advance for your vote :high5:

You may vote for more than one if you chose!

Marble will chew anything, but seems to love colored/flavored lava bites the most.

ZZ is picky. He likes his chews natural, preferably with bark.

My chins seem to prefer colored and flavored loofahs and pumice stones...as for wood? They only like natural wood that still has bark! They refuse to touch KD pine for some reason..colored or not! :dunno:

Besides Lava Bites, my boys won't eat/chew anything that's colored. We'll every once in a while they'll take a piece of colored loofah, but that's about it.

I have ordered colored stuff and it is interesting to the chins for about 1 minute. It certainly isn't the preference. I ordered a pack of sticks and blocks from you Carise and the funny thing is that Peanut went through inspecting all the sticks and she would only pull out the purple ones. She didn't really chew on them though a couple of bites and then on to something new.

I think coloring is more for people. So in short I have some color stuff for variety sake, but I try to restrict how much I order.

My chins like wood with the bark on it. Will not pay very much attention to colored or uncolored pine pieces. However, the do like the willow, pumice and loofah, colored or natural. I like to give them a variety because it looks nice with some color ;)

My girls like flavored and colored loofah, pumice, and willow, but not really any flavored wood for some reason.

Mine aren't too fond of the colored stuff.. the exception is the colored cardboard bagels but I don't think that counts. They won't chew any colored wood, pumice, loofah.. etc. They go out of their way to PEE on colored wood, even if it's on a hanging toy at the top of the cage. They'll find a way to pee on it. Little weirdos. I only buy natural stuff for that reason.
