Whilst it is not possible to cover all of the conditions which may present, I have compiled some basic information on the types of issues I have come across (or researched) whilst looking after my own herd of chinchillas. Wound management articles and advice are based on my professional experience and should not be attempted without veterinary assistance.
Please bear in mind that it is essential to take any sick animal for prompt professional veterinary treatment and advice. These pages are for interest and are not meant for home treating sick animals. © Website designed & created by Stephen Brewster.
