This is one of our lovely blue diamonds, Monica. Before she had babies a couple of weeks ago, she wasn’t super friendly. Since that day, however, we have been BFFs😊💕 I don’t know what has changed, but ok! I’m more than just the cheerio lady now!

We updated our website today! The chins were super cooperative with my amateur photo session and very well behaved. The little standard gray boy, Aslan, wins the award for most photogenic. But, really, these chinchillas are so stinking cute that they never take a bad picture💕

Despite the storm, the chinchillas had a pretty good weekend. A big box of new toys arrived in the mail and we welcomed two new babies!! Monica and Dobby are the proud parents of two beautiful girls. We call this cute beige chinnie “Fiona.” Her sister wasn’t in the mood for pictures. Maybe next time 💕

Although the chinchillas may be my true love, I happen to be a teacher by trade. This is how I imagine this little guy would look if I could take him to school with me. He says I can just leave him at home in charge of The Chinnery!

Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the most handsome chin of all? Oliver is on the left and his 5 month old son, Marky, is on the right. Grandma is our sweet mosaic Bianca who is known far and wide for her eyebrow!

Are you wondering what we are up to at The Chinnery? Well, Mimi and her new beau have established the pecking order. Marky gets the loft. Monica, our blue diamond class champion, is expecting her first litter soon. And, we have a super cute kit with a very fluffy tail looking for some new digs!

Happy Birthday Gidget! This beautiful girl is turning 4 years old. She’s a bit of a hermit and didn’t want to wake up to pose for a picture this morning, so we are posting an older one. Gidget is still just as beautiful- hasn’t aged a day!

The chins are hanging out in these lazy days of summer. Nana is doing a great job taking care of her kits, and Mimi is happy because she moved to one of the cages that is really high up. She likes to look down on the rest of us! Ernie is trying to steal my wedding ring to give it to Bianca 😂

Just in case you were wondering, your chinchillas will hardly take note of this evening’s celebrations. They will be sure to alert you if they do! Have a wonderful holiday from The Chinnery🧺🇺🇸

Oh the cuteness! If only we could keep them all… sigh. These two handsome chins were born here in June. The ebony is called “Bruno.” The very light beige is “”Pochacco.”

06/23/2024

We welcomed our first black velvet at The Chinnery. She was born yesterday to our brown velvet, Daphne, and her hubby, Frosty. We call her Kuromi. We can’t wait to see how beautiful she becomes!

06/22/2024

FB asks what is on our minds. We wonder what’s on Ernie’s mind! He looks like he’s ready to unleash his master plan in the chin room. If only we knew!

Summertime vibes at The Chinnery!

06/20/2024

It’s important to have a hot weather back up plan for your chinchillas -especially during summer/hurricane season. We keep a portable AC handy in our chin room. Since we are located in Florida, we also make sure our generator is ready to go. You can never be too careful when you have a room full of fur balls! Gotta keep ‘em cool ❄️

Ziggy and Star welcomed just one beautiful little kit yesterday 💕 This little cutie weighed 69 grams and is a standard gray blue diamond carrier. This one’s a keeper- good job chinnies!

Who doesn’t love spending Sunday Chinchillin in a hammock? This little cutie says hello!

06/01/2024

Just hangin out enjoying some sticks! Life is good for these chinnies.

Happy Monday and Happy Memorial Day!

05/24/2024

Today is Bianca’s birthday, so we had a party for her. Seems like Ernie had a lot more fun! And, check out Charlotte’s cute kit- “Waffles!” He’s a cute little guy. Happy Friday everybody!

These little violet boys are the cutest! They are the happiest little chins I think I’ve ever seen 😊💕😊💕 Mom Malu takes good care of them!

05/18/2024

Oh my goodness! We are still waiting for Luna’s babies🙏🙏

05/17/2024

This cute little guy is not even a week old! He got so excited this morning when I put out fresh hay. He may be small but his appetite is big 😊

05/16/2024

Welcome little violets! These boys are healthy and beautiful. The look just like their sweet mom, “Malu.”

05/09/2024

I told Dobby that he could be in charge of The Chinnery while I’m at work this week. We are waiting on LOTS of little kits over here- mosaics, violets, and maybe- if we are lucky- a blue diamond! Pictures coming soon!!!!

05/05/2024

Ziggy asked for a margarita to celebrate, but we had to say no… jaja. !Que tenga un feliz cinco de mayo!

04/28/2024

We came in and found this lady looking all forlorn! Nothing a little love and a cheerio can’t cure😊

04/25/2024

Eloise is just so stinking cute! She’s almost one year old. I wonder if she’d like a roommate?

04/17/2024

This is baby Beatriz, and she’s new here! She’s an ebony rpac and pretty fluffy. She will be staying with us at The Chinnery💕 .
