This boy is out of my favorite pair, Miss Macaron (CCHT M-3), a gorgeous pink white female who took Reserve Grand Show Champion Mutation (CA ECBC Spring '22) and Chrome Cowboy, a beautiful bright standard gray male from Royal Chinchillas who took Reserve Grand Show Champion Standard (CA ECBC Spring '22). I am restricting his purchase to someone who is (or is willing to be) a member of a reputable chinchilla organization (GCA, ECBC, or MCBA) and I would really love to see him go to a home that will keep him well-dusted (for a clean fluffy coat!) and take him to show next season as he is from one of my favorite complimentary pairs and has the genetics for amazing potential. I can help you with all the grooming and paperwork preparation!
Mochi is an adorable white mosaic boy with cute gray eye spots and a silly attention-seeking personality. I don't know what it is about the white gene but I feel like they always have such "extroverted" personalities! This boy will come up to the front of the cage and practically beg for you to come over and play with him (or give him a kiwi stick to chew or throw around!)
Mohawk is a big beige boy born to my Hendryx mosaic female and homozygous beige male, Biscuit. I was originally going to keep this guy here as a backup breeder but he didn't grow up to be as clear as I'd like, and that's very important to me in beiges. He earned himself the name Mohawk because he is so dense, when he sheds, he normally ends up with these elevated tufts in the middle of his head like a mohawk!
Muffin was one of two adorable sisters were born to Flurry, a beautiful mosaic female from KISS Chinchillas/Royal Chinchillas (Formerly Ridge Chinchillas) and our big blocky homozygous beige male, Biscuit. Muffin is a hetero beige and Macaron is her pink white sister who took Reserve Grand Show Champion (CA ECBC Spring '22).
3 yr old standard gray male - Chillie was surrendered to us as his owner had developed some health issues that would be making it difficult for her to continue caring for him. He is a sweet energetic boy and is looking for a home where he will be loved.

Note: White kits are normally born mostly gray with only white on their tails and lightening in color as they mature. Markings often change on whites and when purchasing one as a kit, one never knows how it will look as an adult!

We also often have rescue chinchillas available for a $50-75 adoption fee to experienced homes. These chins generally come from neglectful homes or are in need of vet care when they are surrendered to us. We rehabilitate and socialize these chinchillas and place them in homes we feel would be the best fit for them. Rescue chinchillas available for adoption can be viewed here: Rescues for Adoption
