Good luck with it, just make sure you dont disturb him before he eats  |

| I handle mine also, but then i know shes a good feeder. Its fine to just move them to a feeding box, but its best not to handle it to much on a first feeding attempt. |

| Yep. That's the ones. Just trying to figure out a way to get my chinchilla to pee like that. It would save me a fortune in bedding material for his cage. |
