Thank you for stopping at Mt. Zion Chinchillas. My name is
Barb Alton
What is a chinchilla ?? - one of the most delightful creatures God
has created - Sure they are rodents, and many people think of
rodents as 'yuk' - but these characters are similar to squirrels
in intellegence and love to run and play.
Chinchillas are the 'clowns of the rodent world' - They can make
people laugh
just watching them go thru their silly antics. All my
chins have 'play'
time where they get to run around a 'chin' proof
room and interact with me. They are all been handled since birth -
some more than others (their
choice)
I have been breeding since 1994 and each year I find I love these
little
creatures more and more. So as to not repeat what has been
said by
'experts' in the chin world, and for the most up to date
information about
chins, go to my provided LINKS (they say it better
than I can). - I am NOT a pet store - I am a hobby breeder so my
'hours' are when I am home
PLEASE DO NOT come to my home without an appointment
- I will have to turn you away - lets face it - it is
too dangerous - not knowing who you are
Our Mission
Mt. Zion Chinchillas strives to breed the most people friendy chins
we
can - we breed mainly for temperment and, of course, good
health.
