Beginnings on the Farm (Chinchillas!)

Somewhere in all of this getting goats, we were working on getting  ready to bring out chinchillas home.  It wasn't until early December that we were able to get out to Ohio to bring our cages back.  It took us a bit to set those up, and then some time to set up the water line.  Still working out kinks with that, but hey, one thing at a time.

Next would be to bring back the chins!  On December 15th, I loaded up every last carrier I could find, and packed up all my chinchillas from their boarding location...and brought them home!  They haven't been home with me since about sometime in 2014/2015, pushing 7 years!  Super exciting to have them home!




Even more exciting was that by the next morning, we had three new babies!  They weren't breeding well for their "hosting breeder," but I believe in the following month after they arrived, we had 15-20 babies born!  Great start to bringing the herd back!
