Kate, I found this article on the web I hope it helps answer your question.
When establishing a colony, the breeder introduces several females and one male into a large enclosure, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. The animals must all be completely unfamiliar with each other, and the environment must be new to all of them. If one of these rules is broken, fighting will most likely be the case. The breeder has to be very observant, and know the individual temperaments well. Aggressive chinchillas must be removed quickly. The females need to be checked routinely for pregnancy, and removed when they are showing signs of pregnancy. Once all the females are pregnant, the entire colony must be dismantled and then a new one can be started. Problems that commonly occur in colonies is having a female litter in the colony. This often leads to the kits being killed by another female, another female wanting to take the kits as her own, or the mother aggressively going after other female to defend her kits, whether the kits are being threatened or not. If a new colony member is added after the colony is established, there is usually a problem within the first 48 hours, if not immediately. Social and territorial bonding is established quickly, and disrupting this establishment usually does not work. Colonies work well when a breeder has several good tempered females who have either never littered, or have stopped littering. Often the exposure to a colony environment stimulates them to start littering (again). ↑ |

This might sond dumb or it was probably asked a bunch of times. But i recently took in a male chinchila a year ago from my friend who couldn't keep him ne more. He's about 2 years old and really mild mannored and very curious. I am getting another chinchilla thursday of this week and shes only 5 months. Should i keep them seperated cause they won't get along try to see what happens. If so how should i go about it. Any information would be helpful. Thanks

| I've just bought me a Chinchilla today.. And Id have to say, i done the most unresponsible thing ever.. I bought without knowing about them.. Until now.. Shes an older female, t hat the store said could be preg because her and a white male has been mating. I 've bought all the nessacary items for her. and More will come as paychecks do.. I just have to say though their adorable creatures... We work 3rd shift so on nights off work were up all night.. So that will give us plenty of boding time. ↑ |

dear todd,
Yes you can be relived they do stop pooping. If you just got it, it is probaly related to stress. When i first got mine they did that too dont worry.
