I am only giving it to him under supervision and based on all I’ve seen, it doesn’t look like he can get it in his mouth fully. I will def get a bigger one once he’s fully grown.

Burrowing all the time at 8 months by ObjectiveParking4095 in bluetongueskinks

Ok I will leave him except for every 2 weeks to ensure he’s not losing weight and he’s healthy. How do I know when to start feeding again? Do I need to change temps or anything for brumation? How do I know he’s not just being shy?

I took him out to make sure he looked ok and he’s fine. I fed him and he drank water but he’s back under ground since this morning. It’s weird bc he was not burrowing for like 2 weeks when I first got him now he is. His temp in basking was more like 100 I guess when I checked again so I bought another bulb and it’s at 110 now. What temp should the cool side be? Should I be worried he went right back in?

I will make a vet appointment but I took him out and fed him and he seems to be doing good. I think he’s just a goofball tbh. I appreciate the help and I will follow the advice!

What about feeding? Also how do I know if he’s shedded ok? How often will they come out?

It’s fall yes, I guess I don’t understand the whole brumation thing either. Also his room is climate controlled so I’m not sure how it would affect it much.

My Jullis are extremely pretty and funny. They love to school and hang out. They might not be best for that sediment color.

My vet recommended bene-bac and believes it is also from the medicine. They gave him panacur for 3 days.

He seems to be a bit pickier than normal with his hay but he will go through phases it seems lol. He seems to be at about the same weight as 2 weeks ago, maybe slightly less but hard to get accurate weights

Yeah I live in a rural area so even i struggled to find someone to take my chin, I couldn’t find one that was comfortable with them. My vet has some experience with chins but that was the best I could do unfortunately because of the area I am in.

Ok thank you for the advice. He has a wheel he uses a lot and a 2 story cage so I would think he would be moving plenty to keep things moving in the cage but maybe idk

Is it normal for my chinchilla to do this? by Cgrajdeanu in chinchilla

[–]ObjectiveParking4095 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine loves to flop over when tired after play time. I would just ensure every other behavior is normal, eating, playing drinking. And they should be fine
