The Chinchilla Notebook
I would love to see 10 things only chinchilla owners would understand! Having 3 there is a lot people just wouldn't understand!
zoo holic I give my chinchillas cardboard and have never had any problems with it. I only ever give cardboard I think is 100% safe for my pets. I do however only give cardboard once a week or so and I use lots of fun wooden toys!
The Chinchilla Notebook
I came up with another cool video idea, different noises chinchillas make and why they make them!
zoo holic I always check the cardboard I give them, I have talked to my vet about this too 👍 but thank you for telling me I will definitely be looking for better options
I agree with number 17! I have 2 chinchillas and one of them has a grumpy face and a cute face like a dog would make to beg!!😂❤️
I might be getting a chinchilla soon, and every time I get home, I watch your vids! You have helped me so much! Thnx!
I'm adopting two chinchillas next week and I'm a first time owner. I've been binging your videos the past few weeks. Your channel has been amazing for me to learn and better prepare for what's in store! I appreciate you.
Kaelyn Gray I’m so glad to hear that! And also happy to help😉
I'm binging on your videos also bc I'm also adopting 2 chins tm 🥰
My idea for video is : some type of list with pics all different mutation from classic grey to most expensive Blue Dimond.
Fehrplay Good idea, thank you!
Chinchillas have about 80 hairs per follicle. Also I love your videos. You always give me news ideas for my chinchilla! I really like you DIY videos.
LooLoo Brooks Oh my word I just looked it up to confirm it and you are right. Lol, I learned that years ago and guess I got it mixed up.💕
I totally agree with fact 17 ☺️
Nicole Iecampo Me too, lol😆👌
every chinchilla owner aggres with that hehe
Thank you this helped my daughter she got one in may and she loves watching you
UR Channel is freaking dope.
Fun fact I just learned from my vet this year- chinchillas have a “toe comb”. If you look at their back feet, they have one toe that has ‘weird’ fur on it- the fur is stiffer and sticks out over the nail more. They use this toe comb to clean their face and ears, and to groom themselves.
7:00 OF COURSE!
My chinchilla is 20 years old right now
Video idea: 10 things only chinchilla owners can relate to
I’m getting a chinchilla and you have helped me so much I have finally convinced my parents
Teresa Cimino That’s awesome! Glad I could help😊
I rescued my cute old man exactly 1 year ago this week. He is 21. I love him and he is starting to warm up to me after being with me for a year but he is still not very friendly. He's adorable though. I spoil him rotten with apple sticks.
Aww,do you still have the guy?❤️
@@rianna6740 yes. He is 24 this year and just as sassy as ever. Cute little brat that he is. Still spoiled with apple sticks
You could make a video on mistakes that chinchilla owners make. Or on whether or not you NEED to have veterinarian appointments regularly/the process of chinchilla health.
Animal_lover Blueeb2 Thanks for the ideas!
Wow thank you for this info.. Didn't know they have two kinds.. Beautiful they are
Maybe a video on just their fur and why they can't get wet in more detail! I just told my daughter it's like the gremlin!
hi am Luz and im going to get a chinchilla was they get them in the pet stores and also channel has really helped
This was the best I love chinchillas there sooooo CUTE!!!
I just got a chinchilla after researching them and watching your channel and many more (her name is dewdrop and she’s 3 months old)
I love DIYs and hauls. Maybe another toy DIY or cage accessory. You could make one of those tunnels made out of PVC or something like that or you could challenge another chinchilla channel to do a DIY. Another playtime video! I also liked the idea of things only chinchilla owners will understand.
aliSeis GE Thanks for leaving me some inspiration!😉💕
Maybe you can do some diy toys that would be cool
I got my 2 chinchillas in beginning of August in 2020 and this channel really helped me before I got them and I still watch it now even though I know about chinchillas thank you
❤️❤️❤️
I've been watching your channel for a month or 2 now and I just got a chinchilla a few weeks before Christmas and you have helped me so much!!! Love ur channel!
Can Chinchillas see in color? If you do not know, is there any way that you can find out?

I was told don't neuter or spay them. It's expensive and right now they don't know how to do it without killing the poor thing.
I just love when they say the tempature they can be and then i am like , ah yes .. ofcourse F° ... Man i wish all of can just use one - v-' so then like we can all understand each other better ? And don't have to google everything 😂
You can speak about some plants that are dangerous for chinchillas. Thankyou for being on TH-cam cause I might get a chinchilla soon
Merlin always grubbing haha 😍😁
Ever since I new what a chinchilla was I wanted one. I begged my mum for ssssssoooooooooooo long [3 years to be exact] . But one day she was feeling nice and finaly caved ,but she said that I had to pay for the chinchilla and every thing it needed [ apart from the vet stuff] . I am 8 and am hoping to get it before my tenth birthday . These vids have been a HUGE help so truly thank u so so much.[weird question and vid idea but could you say how much everything would cost for the chin in New Zealand dollars. Thanks.]
Awwwwwwwww, I can seat and watch Merlin wholeday while he num num food. You fluffy chubby cute ball of fur :D
I totally agree with the 17th fact, i have a chinchilla named Lilly shes sooo cutee! but wait, CAN THEY ACTUALLY JUMP 6 FEET? I THOUGHT THEY CAN JUMP UP TO 3 FEET OR SUM
Not going to lie, Amazon has WAY better options for toys, cages, etc for chinchillas and you gave me the idea and now I can't stop buying haha
Hi!
I am maby getting two chinchillas and i was wondering if its best to have to females or to males in the same cage?
Good video BTW

Laci Roomes I can try to think some up😊💕
@@TheChinchillaNotebook Thanks!
I just got a chinchilla ! So I’m watching to figure out some cool things about my little buddy.
Xhamster has pictures of super adorable hamsters. go check it out
Thank you so much for commenting on my other comment that has NEVER happened before thank you soooooo much
I experienced The fur slip and freaked out because I thought I had pulled my chin's fur out. It literally looks like some one cut a straight ring of fur off their body.
Thanks to this I know have a chinchilla named CHOW CHOW ❤️💕❤️ thanks so mush!!!
I love this video.Watching the cutie eat while listening to Chinchilla facts really touched my heart
im trying to get na chinchilla but i was wondering if there good pets for 11 yr olds
I have two chinchillas chungus and Ying yang they're perfect
Is it dangerous to have your house temp at 80 degrees for a chinchilla?
You should do a vid about bonding chinchillas and if one of them passes before the other, what you should do to help the other get through it. Love your channel!
I have a baby chinchilla and I have a mom and dad I guess hehehehehehehe that means I got some free three
Video idea: (optional to you, some you tubers don’t do these some do...)
- How much getting two chinchillas cost and how much every month/year.
/ I’ve been considering chinchillas since it be perfect for my lifestyle but still researching the cost.
>> Your videos make my day
We just got 2 chins and they cost 150 dollars each, they’re just 3 months old
They live up to 20yrs I got two females
I just got a new friend for my Female chin. I figured there wouldn't be much difference in their care. Then tonight I came across videos about male's FUR RING. OMG I was not prepared.
I love my chinchilla he’s so sweet I was watching tv earlier while he sat on my lap
Video idea: more in depth about socialization.
Also how to potty train a chin?
@thechinchillanotebook lol your chinchilla is so cute ahaha thanks for the video! :)
Hi I have to baby chinchillas they are full of fun I am so glad I seen your videos because I have learned a lot from watching your videos I am looking forward to watching lots more x
Jeanette Dickson I’m so glad to hear that!💕💕
i can agree with them i cant survive in really hot environment either
Chins also go limp and seriously look like flat dead chins when they get traumatized. It has been a learning curve.
The last fact number 17 is the most correct 👍👍👍
Chinnies parcourt and bounce off walls when they play
Yes I will have e mine. Tomorrow can't wait
My chinchilla is seven and a half and he lived on a bad diet with his old owners. They gave him bad treats and different assortments in their food. We’ve fixed it now and take very good care of him. I’d like if you respond and tell us how we’re doing. Thank you
Toasted_ Breadz That’s good to hear. I’m glad you’re doing better. 😉💕
Can chinchillas live outside
No they need a particular temperature
Dawn and dusk means sunrise and almost night
Can you do a: How to “potty” train your chinchilla.☺️ that would be very helpful for me and probably other people too.
Officially Sydny I would love to, but I feel like I wouldn’t be able to because I’ve tried with Merlin before and it just never really worked unfortunately 💕💕
The Chinchilla Notebook ok that is totally fine I’m sure there are other people that have made those kinds of videos💛
You are never going to stop them pooping everywhere- they just don’t have the ability. Most chins will hold their pee when you take them out. If you notice that your chin is NOT pooping every few seconds while they are out playing, the odds are they have to pee. Many can learn to pee before you take them out. I have 14 chins, and have only been peed on by an adult chin once in the last 25yrs (I don’t count babies, since they are still learning, but I have only had a baby pee on me a couple times), and had my carpet peed on maybe 3 times. Litter training in the cage is more about putting the litter box in the area that they pee- I use toilet paper to teach mine to use a specific area- they LOVE to pee on toilet paper. I put a few sheets in the litter box, and they usually run over and pee on it right away.
Actually you should not neuter or spay them unless there are underlying health reasons, other wise you house same sexes together
Yes I agree that you shouldn’t go about that way if you can avoid it 💕
Food you never should feed your chinchilla
Here’s a fun fact about one of my chinchillas the lady I got him from had his foot amputated cause when he was a small baby she had the wrong wire steps and he was stuck in the steps and broke his foot so I have a three legged chinchilla
A video idea not sure if you did already since I’m new is maybe health issues that people don’t know about them or more dangers.
I know this an old vid, but my chinchilla is currently about 30.
I would say that they live 15 to 25 years on average instead of 10 to 15.
I'm getting a white chinchilla
I'M GITING A CHINCHILLA FOR MY BIRTHDAY😁😁
I have a female and she is a sweetie.
I am getting a chinchilla today yay I am so excited 😍☺😃😚🤣😎
Julie Masuicca that’s awesome! I hope he adjusts well😊💕
Yeet!
it is 50 hairs in one falacul
I don’t know if it will help you, but it will certainly help me and quite possibly other people. I watched a video of yours where you were explaining what is healthy and what is not for chinchilla’s. Where I live it’s not big on chinchilla’s. Matter of fact I’m going to have to go out of town to get my own chinchilla. I would like to know about websites to visit to order toys, treats, cage ledges, and everything that will help me take care of my chinchilla’s. If you have already done a video about it please forgive me, but what to get is troubling me. I don’t want to get anything toxic. I wanna get toys that are healthy, necessary, creative, and fun. I think it’s masterful that use stones and marble to keep Merlin cool if he gets too hot. You made a video about the right wheel to get, the fact of how and why they chew so much, and the wooden huts you’ve purchased for Merlin. I have my heart set on getting two chinchilla’s, and sugar gliders. So, I’m trying to gather as much information as possible before I go get them.
very informative
Hello, I was wondering if you recommend tile rather than fleece or what do you prefer?
Brianna Loaiza I love both but I don’t recommend tile in the whole cage because they need an absorbent place to pee and it either has to be bedding or fleece. I personally like having both as in a half and hald😊
Or you could make videos on how to color things safely with food coloring or what aisles to go to when shopping for chinchillas.
Animal_lover Blueeb2 Thanks for the ideas!💕
Thank you
Is merlin a boy or a girl?
Dos and don’ts with chinchillas. Like DON’T get them wet...DO give them a dust bath.
Megan Ruther Awesome idea, thank you!😉💕
if u keep your chinchilla the way it should be kept, then they can live up to 15+ easily
0:53 It's cre-PUS-cu-lar
Helpful facts for first time chin owners
The dust baths are just like dry shampoo for the chins!
I really want a chinchilla and I learned so much from this channel and since I am so informed about chinchillas, my mom told me I will get a chinchilla in the next year so I am really excited
Brooke Davis That’s awesome! Can’t wait til, you get one😉
Omg I have a dog at home so I can cat a chinchilla. Btw, my dogs never go in my room 🤩💗🥰

Cristina Topics Thank you for the ideas! And face reveal coming once I reach 5,000 subs!😊💕
how much work is it owning a chinchilla ?? requires them more than what a dog needs? I have 2 deus now, so do not have room for a chinhilla now. I have video of degus on my youtube page
zippgirl123 They are actually pretty easy, apart from giving them lots of attention and time😊
Hi I think these are rlly helpful vids!
How much and what kind of treats to give to your chinchilla. Also where can i find some that arent so processed and full of sugar??
lexi smith Treats aren’t very good for chinchillas and should be given only a few times a week. I’d say one or two every other day. Merlin’s favorite are goji berries and rosehips, and barely grouts. Those are all very good, but watch the goji berries, because they’ve got sugar in the, while the rosehips and barely grouts are completely sugar free. You can get them at most health or grocery stores and if not, you can always order online😊💕
I have been researching everything about chinchillas because I want a pair so badly but I don’t have the space. 😢
Amelia Ann Aww, I’m sorry about that. I hope you can get some in the future💕💕
you are so nice i would love to have chinchillas, but my dad say i not get one until i convise hi girl friend. also a video idea is giving the Merlins cage a new look with out bying stuff
Jadyn Karnath That’s great, and I could get very creative with that, thank you!😉💕
