If you've stumbled onto this page, well just enjoy the ramblings of a middle-aged guy who needs to get off his assets more often. But for the time I'm here I might as well produce something for the internet (I really believe this whole internet thing will take off and be useful!) Feel free to make comments, but be nice!

Chinchillas

Whoa...two posts in a day, let alone the same month!

Well I have done some research and for some strange reason I wanted to adopt some chinchillas. Rhonda is not too thrilled but I've promised to take care of them. Hopefully they will grow on her.

Audrey and Demi (no, I didn't name them) will be arriving before Thanksgiving, from a family in Maryland. Their daughter is at MSU and they are driving into town to pick her up and take her home. On their way through we'll meet and I'll pick up the girls.

While waiting for their arrival I've picked up a good cage, and supplies such as hay, and pellets, food dishes, water bottles and an assortment of toys for them to play with and on, and things for them to chew (chins are avid chewers).

I have two pictures of the chins from their onwers:

This is Audrey------>
This is Demi ------> I guess Demi's mom chewed on her when she was a kit (baby chinchilla) and nibbled off part of her ear. At least I'll be able to tell them apart.

Both girls are called "standards" because of their coloring and markings. I'll post more stuff and newer pictures after they arrive and we get acquainted.
