John,
You are correct, chins are not an easy care pet. They are very fragile..and you have to watch how you handle them. That is why I tell folks with smaller kids that chins are not a good pet.
Yep..they poop all over when they are out..which is why I confine her to one room when she is out of her cage. Her cage itself is easy enough to clean. Hell, I do not have anything better to do with my time on Saturday.
I know people who actually have herds of them..200+ They breed them and sell them as pets
One is plenty enough for me. She sleeps all day, but hell, I am at work all day. Even. BUT, she sleeps a lot at night too now that she is "middle aged".
Odd thing..I'd rather have a chinchilla than a dog. But each to his own.
