Meet 7 year old standard grey male chinchilla

We have a standard grey male chinchilla who’s looking for his new home. He is what’s known as a “culled breeder” – he was used for breeding at a large ranch, and when he no longer was fathering babies, he was pulled from breeding, and was going to be put down. Rather than have him meet that fate, we took him in and now he is available to a pet home!

This boy is super sweet! SUPER sweet. But he has one dislike, and he does make it known. He does NOT like being handled by his tail, or really, having his tail touched, at all. He will wail at the top of his lungs. Scoop him up any other way, and he’s as happy as a clam. He really is. We can hold him and pet him and even hive him scritches, and he’ll just chill with us, super chill and super nice… but you go to hold him by his tail, even to steady him, and he expresses his displeasure. I tell you this, of course, so you avoid his tail, and keep him happy as a clam, like he should be. Very very nice boy. Doesn’t bite.

We have down that this boy was born around December 2010, making him 7 years old. Plenty of time to enjoy the rest of his life in posh pet accommodations, being spoiled and petted, as he should be.

This male is a standard grey chinchilla. That means he is the typical salt and pepper greyish color over his back, with a white belly.

He would make a great “first chinchilla” for someone who’s never had one before. As long as you leave his tail alone, he’ll be your best friend forever.

This chinchilla is currently caged alone. If you are interested in pairing him up with your, or one of our, chinchillas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do.

This chinchilla will come with some food to start you out (Tradition pellets), a goodie bag of chews/treats, and a printed out version of our care packet. She will also come with a lifetime of help and support, should you ever need it. If more supplies are needed, we also sell a variety of chinchilla supplies, from cages to hidey houses to hammocks and everything in between.

Regardless of past chinchilla experience, all potential homes will be asked to read our chinchilla care packet and fill out our adoption application/chinchilla questionnaire. If you are unwilling to do this, please do not waste our time or yours. No chinchilla will go to a new home without an adoption application being filled out - no exceptions.

This 7 year old standard grey male chinchilla is located in Hammond, Indiana (zip code 46324). We can ship chinchillas from Chicago O’Hare, to a major airport near you in the continental US. Inquire if interested.

The adoption fee for this 7 year old standard grey male is $75
