Two Orphaned Chins

These two were orphaned after their mother died due to probable heat stroke while in one of the large ‘hamster balls’ they sell for chinchillas. The former owner realized how unprepared and unable she was to care for two babies around the clock and asked for help. The two are settling in nicely. The larger boy is 54 grams and very social. The smaller boy is 50 grams and a bit more skittish, but coming around. They’ll be looking for new homes in 6-8 weeks once weaned.
