Chinchillas sleep during the day. It is therefore important that they have their own place to sleep. Because Chinchillas are group animals and like to sleep together, it is useful that the house is large enough for the group or at least for two chinchillas. In addition, the animals need a house to retreat to. In addition to a place to sleep, a house also provides an extra sense of security for the Chinchilla. We understand this need! That is why we offer you a wide choice of many suitable houses for chinchillas!
Home or not for a chinchilla?
Although chinchillas in the wild do not sleep in a hole, they like to hide among the rock crevices and enjoy being sheltered. Once chinchillas get their own home, they will happily sleep in it. It also shields the animals from any outside commotion. The animals sleep during the day, which gives them extra rest in a sleeping house.
How big should the chinchilla house be?
The size of the house depends on the group size and the personal preferences of the animals. Do they like to sleep together? Then a larger house is recommended, so that the animals can sleep together comfortably. If some group members prefer to be alone, a small house that can accommodate only one individual is also possible. With the latter option, it is better to have several small houses so that the animals do not fight over them. Each group should have at least one larger house where they can live together.
Which material to choose?
Chinchillas are real rodents. The most ideal option is therefore a gnaw-proof house. An example of a gnaw-resistant house is an aluminum house. The chinchillas will not be able to gnaw these and that is why a gnaw-proof house will last the longest by far. The wooden houses are also very popular. However, wood does have the major disadvantage that chinchillas can chew it to pieces. It is therefore important to always provide sufficient alternative gnawing material/gnawing wood. Some caution is also required when using houses with nails or staples. These items must be checked daily. When the chinchilla has gnawed so far that a nail or staple is almost exposed, the house must be replaced. We also have nail-free wooden houses. These are gnaw-proof, but will always last less long than a gnaw-resistant plateau. There are also rodent houses. These are meant to be nibbled on! Naturally, the rodent houses last the least long.
How can you prevent gnawing on a house?
Chinchillas love gnawing material, the more the better and preferably of natural origin. Branches of apple, willow, birch, topinamberry, etc. are very popular, but also help prevent gnawing problems. If animals have too little gnawing material or gnawing material that they are not satisfied with, they can start gnawing on their house. Therefore, provide the animals with sufficient gnawing material and distraction so that they do not attack their home. If all this does not help, an aluminum house is a solution.
