Hello there everyone! I'm happy to of found this group!!!
As the title states, I am in Indiana County, PA, HI to everyone and to all the other PAians out there!!! Anyhow, my names Niki, and right now I have 2 chinchillas. 1 Grim (Grimlin) that I bought off of a private petstore who gets them directly from a small scale breeder. Grim was sold to me as a standard grey, although I am not too certain if that's his true color. He's a bit darker, and doesn't have the black tipped guardhairs like my girl or like other standards i've seen. He's just like this over all darker color. Anyhow! Grim is about 8 months old now.
Then theres Smigen, she's a year old, and I just adopted her almost a week ago from a girl near Gettysburgh. Smigen is deffinatly a standard grey. I was told she was very handled, but :dunno: , she's pretty skiddish. I'm fine with that, I just don't like the fact that every time I come into their room, I freak her out, and Grimmerz gets upset at me for scaring her.
I have my chinnies in my sparebedroom so they get their muchneeded sleep throughout the day. I have two large MY First Homes cages. I am going to connect these two cages together soon to make one large one, and then I'm also considering putting add-ons on the top of Grims original cage to make it even bigger/taller. I have Grim and Smigen together in Grims cage, I'd like to breed them...they really enjoy eachothers company. I've read up on owning and breeding chinchillas for over a year now. Another friend of mine who also lives in PA owns 3 and I chat to her all the time about hers. She's also hoping to breed her beiges, but hasn't had any signs/luck in months. If I were to have this same un-luck that's fine...I just really enjoy chinchillas, they've got the most cutest faces...and they're just all around wonderful animals.
I saw someone else on here posting their animal artwork, I should post mine sometime! I don't sale mine though, I just draw for fun... :)
Anyhow, this group seems like a great place to talk chins and other pets!
I also own 6 rats: Howard: Siamese/Dumbo/Rex- male, Angel (Howards daughter): Siamese/Dumbo/Velveteen Rex, Lucky (Howards Son): Blue Broken Standard, Daisy: Mismarked Hooded female, Angelo: Agouti standard, and Rose: a beautiful PEW girl.
Then theres my kitten Ozzy who is a black longhaired domestic
And Lea my beagle/pitty mix pup
Thanks everyone for this great group!
