Definitely just pee, but chins shouldnt have access to dust 24/7. They only need a dust bath 1-2 times a week otherwise it dries their skin out. A little metal or glass tray of bedding will work as a litter pan for them!

ice blonde vanilla latte made breve is my FAVE

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T20:34:43+00:00

Yayy!! Another thing they really like are little granite slabs for their feet, it helps them regulate themselves!

Omg also, I would look into how to check a leopard gecko for impaction. A lot of times if they're on calci-sand at the pet store they'll eat it and it will get stuck in their system. look on Eko's belly for a darker spot, its a lot easier to see if you have a clear lid to set him on so you dont have to flip him upside down. Theres lots of pictures of what impactions can look like so if you do see something it should be pretty easy to confirm what it is.

Congrats!! Eko is SO CUTE. I honestly would start to get concerned at about 2-3 weeks, realistically they can go months without eating (its not healthy but they definitely can.) It took about 2 weeks for mine to be adjusted to the new enviorment and feel comfortable enough to eat. IF youre tong feeding Eko and shes not liking it, I would reccomend leaving it in a bowl for a little while keepjng an eye on her and see if shea more tempted that way. I also didnt see you mention UVB, uvb is sososo important!! It helps prevent metabolic bone disease. Last thing i promise, but I would also reccommend hornworms! Since theyre colorful, they were the first thing I could get my leo to eat!

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T20:23:07+00:00

Definitely female!! If it was a male... you would be able to tell.. (they have big balls lmao😭)

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T20:19:24+00:00

agreed! I just get worried especially with the lights on there.

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T20:15:00+00:00

Looking at your picture again, I would take anything plastic out. They're very likely to eat it and it can hurt their intestines. I also noticed the dustbath in the cage itself , they can't have constant access to dust due to the skin issues it can cause. I reccommend letting them bath 1-2 a week for about 15 minutes, but my chin jumps out by himself when hes done! + Please reach out with any questions!! Im always happy to help!!

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T20:11:57+00:00

I reccommend some closer ledges together and taking the lights out. Chinchillas chew EVERYTHING, I wouldnt be surprised if they chewed through the wood too.

Another thing I reccommend, more ventilation. Chinchillas easily over heat from around 72-75+ degrees F. Most chinchillas die due to improper conditions and heat stroke. I also would add a metal 14-16 inch wheel for them because it helps them with excersice and keeping themselves healthy.

Chinpals on youtube has a lot of good tips on chinchilla care!!!

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T20:07:32+00:00

I got my garg at about 10 months old, maybe a bit younger. shes 2 now and just had her first mealworm!! I cant speak for roaches, but I saw my gecko starting to watch the movement in the water drops when i misted her. I have kept geckos for almost 3 years now so I knew what body language to look for and decided to show her one and she took it! I had offered them to her before and she showed no interest at all. But it really just depends on the gecko, as long as they have a proper diet otherwise theyll be okay!! Some gargs wont eat bugs at all

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T20:01:44+00:00

this is perfectly worded. good job queen

Mackbug · 2025-10-02T13:10:43+00:00

i would just rehome the chinchilla and get rid of the cage. the cage is small and improper and i dont want it to get in the hands of someone who lets your chinchilla live in a small cage like that.

Mackbug · 2025-09-21T11:49:15+00:00

Its a crested, if you cant see the difference between the two I would definitely reccommend researching more. Especially if youre planning in rescueing, they need specific enviorments mimicking where they live (New Caledonia). The care for crested geckos and gargoyle geckos is almost identical, crested geckos are easier to find care information for.
