How to choose healthy chinchillas?

Many people who want to keep a chinchilla always panic when they arrive at a pet store. When they face these dozens of cute little guys of different sizes, they will see that one feels cute, the other feels like it, and wants to wrap them all, but they hate that their wallets are not full enough. Today, I will teach you a few points to pay attention to when choosing a chinchilla in a pet store: 1, cute or not, what matters is the appearance, the appearance here. From the front, the face should be round, the mouth should not be sharp, the bigger the face, the better, and the body must be chubby. The rounder, the more attractive it is, which also shows that my neighbor totoro is in good health, eats well and grows fat.

2. Looking at the eyes, it is said that the eyes are the windows of the soul. Although it is impossible to see the inner thoughts of my neighbor totoro from my eyes, I can see whether my neighbor totoro is healthy or not. Only chinchillas with bright eyes and no scales and secretions around them can be healthy.

3, look at the coat color with oil, bifurcation, and even a lot of hair loss, can reflect the cat's physical condition. The coat color should be clear, the stripes should be clear, and there should be no layers. The whiter the belly coat, the better.

4, look at the nose, breathe smoothly, no runny nose.

5, look at the white teeth, although good-looking, but it is a manifestation of calcium deficiency, my neighbor totoro's teeth should be better in Huang Yue, and they should be neat and not deformed.

6. Look at the chinchillas in the ear pet market. Generally speaking, they live in groups, often put together, or have fights after they are born as children, and their ears are often easily injured. Many chinchillas have a small hole in their ears, which needs careful observation by buyers.

7, look at the finger Totoro usually likes to be alive and kicking in the cage, a higher cage, it is easy to fall from the springboard to the bottom, or entangled in the barbed wire of the cage. It depends on whether the fingers are complete and can hold things normally, and the hind limbs should be developed and strong.

8. Watching poop can also reflect the healthy state of my neighbor totoro. The poop is black, shiny, dry and big, so no problem.

9. Look at the breeding environment where my neighbor totoro lives. Many sellers, in order to reduce the cost of feeding, will let my chinchilla eat poor and cheap food, and will not even pay attention to the surrounding environmental conditions. However, the feeding environment can often tell whether the chinchilla is carefully cared for, and a comfortable environment and top-grade food can make a healthy chinchilla.

10, everything above the fate is optimistic, and the latter is to choose a neighbor totoro who is predestined with the owner. Only two of them are right, and they will be happy to take home later.

Note that not all chinchillas will show close behavior when they first contact people. My neighbor totoro is a timid animal. It is normal behavior not to hug or touch the owner at first. Some chinchillas will spray you when they are upset. Hehe, as long as they don't have obvious fierce resistance to their masters, they will take them home and gradually cultivate their feelings in the future. When they are familiar with it, they will take the initiative to climb into the master's hand, touch it casually and tickle it.
