- Pet chinchillas - how much do they cost!? I break it down for you!
Hey guys, it's Em!
So many of you have been asking how much it would cost to buy a pet Chinchilla, so I'm here to give you a realistic idea of how much it can cost to buy a pair of chinchillas.
We'll cover the actual cost of a pair of chinchillas, everything you will need to set them up at home, and some essentials which you may not have even thought about!
*DISCLAIMER*
Chinchillas are happiest when kept in a pair. I recommend bonded, same-sex pairs, such as two males, or two females.
If you have done your research and you feel chinchillas would be a good fit for your family, please consider adopting, rather than buying!
I hope you enjoy this video. Please hit that subscribe and alert button to stay up to date with all things Emzotic!

Big bear hugs to ALL of you. Remember to come and find me on Insta, Twitter and Snapchat by searching for @emzoticoffical.

Emzotic you are the best ❤️ you and your beautiful
Emzotic your American accent sounds like my moms accent her first language is Spanish and she has a low key accent that sounds a lot like your impression of us lmao
Emzotic I am a big fan I subscribed recently am I glad i did ❤️
Emzotic I ❤️ ALL UR ANIMALS
Jazmin Ramirez That's amazing! :)
"ooooooo a chinchilla sounds cool"
*Clicks on Video*
"oooooo maybe I'll get a pet rock instead"
Lol true.
Lmao XD so true
But wut happens when you drop it? Lamo
I already have one and his name is roku
😂
"Chinchillas are very active" Me: glaring at my two lazy chinchillas who just sleep and will only complain if I haven't cuddled them
are they males or females? ages?
Male or female?
Articalz try having a supposedly aggressive lizard who wants nothing but you and only you at all times of the day...
Males 8 years old the both of them but they have always been lazy little things 😁
Dark Prince omg what kind of lizard
I’m going to start off by saying, instead of spending $150 of one from petsmart, you could adopt one in need for a home for about $50 or less, it could possibly be already spayed or nurtured, so youve already save yourself $600. Just saying 🤷♀️
@Quijib0 Minecraft I adopted / rescued Rosie thru our local Craigslist ad . Most places have these pets for adoption ads . Look there or call local shelters believe me they come across many animals . I rescued my ferrets and sugar gliders thru shelter and my vets ads posted on ofgice walls
*clicks on video to do research before I ask my mom for a chinchilla*
Less than 50 seconds in
*ok let's get oh I know a pet grape ;)*
This is exactly what I was doing 😂
Her American accent freaked me out!! Maybe it's not fake, but her real accent 😲 she does it so well
love her accent and voice!
American accents are pretty easy to imitate, since most people are brought up with American movies/shows and now with the Internet :/
Ikr she sounds like a valley girl
American accents are easy, because they are correct.(-N.East, and the South)
When Brits try to imitate them they usually sound like a cross between a Appalachian mountain man and a valley girl. So not very accurate.

Hey, i have two (two year old) chinchillas, they are amazing pets and i love them so much but i just wanted to add a couple more things :)
- Mine are very picky, (this may not apply to all chinchillas but I'm speaking from experience.) i have spent quiet a lot of money over the two years on probably 5 bath houses for them (£6-£12) only for them to refuse to use them or not fit into them once they got bigger. I also started them on the cheaper food the person i got them off gave me and due to it being out of stock bought the one that was twice the price and now that's the only one they will eat.
- Be careful with cages, they are incredibly clever and will figure out how to unlock some door locks, i bought a cage for £200 which i have to padlock closed as they can use there powerful back legs to kick open.
- They chew anything they can, i have had to buy a large roll of cardboard so that they don't chew the skirting board and the wooden cabinets that are in the room i get them out in.
Just a quick side note as well not all chinchillas are as cuddly and calm as Olaf. One of mine is loving and friendly and you can hold her and she will sit on my shoulders but the other one will only allow you to touch her when she wants you too and even then its is rare.
Hope this helps someone :)
When I had my Chinchilla, the dust and bedding were by far the most expensive ongoing costs, because they both needed replaced regularly and weren't that cheap to begin with.
can you do one of these videos for homo sapien children? I feel like many people decide to create children without the proper knowledge before hand.
Eugene Sesma III Hahahaa!! Yes!!
I can help with older ones. They say two is hell...thats so you dont know what 5 is when they know what you say back to win or know you are tired etc. Then 13......i cant talk of it or it might know and ill get the eye roll of death.
This made me laugh haha
😂😂😂😂😂
I can’t 😭💀
"they are the cUTEST" I just started and I'm already relating to the enthusiasm about chinchillas.
Hahahaha!! That's great :)
I also can't believe it's around 500 bucks-- in germany it's USUALLY around 50 to 70, apparently. And in some cases up to 250.. how does that big span happen? The world may never know.
Alena Denisé Yeah it's crazy! My local vets do it for £120.00
Emzotic in my experience, its because they are including a physical with the cost. my local vet had vouchers that brings a spay or neuter down to 30$ USD per animal, but thats because the rest is offset by donations to make sure those with animals are at least getting the bare minimum (spay/neuter/rabies/etc). for a new pet owner that is paying out of pocket, they will have their first visit be a full physical...and thats where they really get you for your money. my most recent bill was for 300$ for two cats to get two shots and a physical. i know the shots were only about 1/3rd of the cost, his time was the majority. but, thats only my experience in my US town as a patron. hopefully someone else who works in the industry will clarify....because 500 is quite a steep price.
Spaying and neutering is much more pricey for exotic pets in the US. cats and dogs are relatively cheap (sometimes free) but the surgery is more difficult and more risky with smaller pets because theyre often more sensitive to being put under anesthesia.
I asked my mom about possibly considering a ferret last night. She said "NO! I would never have a ferret in my household!" so im looking into chinchillas. thanks for info!
Me : Damn the chinchilla itself cost 1K+ here so :')
Also me : *spends over thousands for my cats and birds*
Where do they cost 1k lol
If you get them as kittens and puppies it costs a lot
@@247onlinebcduhwhynot9 not sure why this is "lol" material. They are expensive a lot of places. Also, you should check the prices of the more unusual ones like Angoras, etc.!
thought this said enchilada 😭
Lol
Im so late too
Now im hungry
No, but you can still have one a a pet xD
Dacia Isaac LMFAO
I don't recommend paper bedding for chins, using pill free fleece to cover the cages is highly recommended!
Note: The people who use Fleece are often the same ones who say "Chinchillas can't be toilet trained" - they like to pee on soft things.
@@shiruba2004 my chin is on fleece and tile and pees in a dish with shavings🤷🏻♀️
Fleece holds ammonia HUGELY it’s the same reason you shouldn’t use it for rats.
@@melissathompson9700 rats are not chinchillas, and you should be changing them often. There’s a reason every chinchilla breeder says aspen or fleece.
Also paper bedding expands in their stomach which causes gi stasis. I’m not just saying this stuff for shits and giggles 🤷🏻♀️
I had two chinchillas that I adopted from my local shelter for $50 each (already neutered). They were the best pets I’ve ever had. I highly recommend them!
Me:*looks at price*
Also me:I can Diy half that stuff.
I like melanie martinez
Annie Ooi random but same
Yaaah
or just get two females instead of 500 dollar neutering
Niko Simotas or two males
Yeah I’d say two males bc if a female doesn’t get neutered I’m pretty sure it will become protective of it’s toys and bite if u go near them. That’s bc I know a female dog like that but I am not completely sure about chinchillas though
ok or two males sexist
Smelly Bruh with attitude that’s not sexist lmao
So what if this is an american. video? does evervody have a big hate crush against the USA✌
Oh my gosh I thought the cage would be the most expensive thing! Also, I'm not sure about chinchillas but Kaytee is a really bad brand for hamster and rabbit food. Oml the American accent is perfect 😂😭👏
If you have a chinchilla NEVER buy Kaytee first of all their Dust bath is heavy and clings on their fur and their wooden huts have nails in them. If you want to get food or anythting for a chin its best to get Oxbow and Timothy
I do the VitaSmart brand for all my small pets. Seems to work great for them.
Miranda Random ikr
I like Kaytee cozy bedding but might switch to CareFresh .
My guinea pigs LOVE the Kaytee snuggle beds, but that's about all I've purchased from that company. The American accent was superb lol
i like how you change accents when you talk on the phone loool
She was doing an American accent and it was soo funny lol 😂
Theodore (Theo) SY what even.... I didn’t understand a sentence he said LMFAO
Theodore (Theo) SY oh ok
Great video! My chinchilla just gave birth to three babies this morning - 2 boys and a girl
Grey little pikachu ahhhhhh so adorable !!
I know this video was posted a while ago. But you should make videos like these for all your animals! It will be a lot of work but it will be worth it. A lot of people don’t realize the cost of animals and then later can’t afford them. This video was very helpful. Keep being you!
Omg this the first vid I have seen by you and your so happy! ❤️ YOU GAINED A SUB! ❤️
Olaf looks so comfortable on your shoulder
Nahal Binte We're besties ❤️
I didn’t even notice he was on her shoulder till I read this lol
I WANT A CHINCHILLA SO BAD AHHH
They're adorable :)
Ah this was very useful, I've been looking to try and get a chinchilla, and there is a lovely pet store that has chinchillas there so that's all good and dandy. This helped with showing things I need to cover. Aaagh I love your channel so much as well, its great!!
Emzotic I love your videos so much. They are so educational. I have been wanting a chinchilla for a while so this was good information. Thank you!
Getting your pet "nootered" ( 😅) is not the only time you are going to have to see the vet. Animals can get ill, they can get injured. They have to get vaccinated every year. You have to take those costs into consideration as well. I got my cat from the rescue and I paid 50€ in donations which seems pretty inexpensive. But a few weeks later he broke a vase, stepped into the broken glass and I had to rush to the vet. He recovered, fortunately, but that cost me 300€ ... when you get a pet you commit to caring for it in good times and bad times. Animals are neither Birthday gifts nor Christmas gifts or whatever. They become family and they have to be treated as such until they one day have to cross the rainbow bridge!
And Em, I am happy to have found your channel! It's amazing to see how passionate you are. Please keep up the good work! People's attitude towards animals needs to change and the only way to do that is to educate, educate, educate. Thank you ))
JoMoyes chinchilla don’t need vaccines
JoMoyes chinchilla don’t have vaccines
Costs are expected to be lower with chinchillas, less vaccines, and less injuries
She said in the video she wasn't going to get into all the other costs in this video because there are a lot lol
I have two chinchillas and they're the best! But just want to actually mention you can save a couple of bucks! Instead of getting bedding like carefresh it's more preferable if you get a fleece fabric for the bottom of the cage instead so instead of buying multiple packages a year for carefresh bedding all you have to do is throw the fleece in the washer and reuse it!
Emily Cordova reuse reduceand recycle
Emily Cordova plus if you get two females you don’t need to neuter them
@ByeBitch 《 hey! So, I can't speak for the person above, but I use tile (which, no, doesn't soak anything up) and clean it every day to hopefully prevent this from happening. My chinchillas also really love to jump around and are usually not on the ground of their cage, either in a hammock, perch, hiding place ect.. is this okay?
@ByeBitch 《 the point with fleece is to have an absorbent layer underneath, like garrett223 pointed out. With an absorbent layer it works just like reusable baby diapers.
Emily Cordova do you have them in the same cage! ?
i recently got a chinchilla and got every single thing on the list at the store for $507.90 !
I just got one 2 weeks ago, $575( $250 the chinchila) i love her
brooklynn ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ some of the things in this video are toxic and not safe for chins. I am not trying to be rude I just want to tell you to be safe.
I am actually gonna build their enclosure with the things for them to jump on and adopt a rescue for sure it is a lot cheaper and maybe wait i little longer for another chinchila companion and instead of a pet insurance maybe wait a while longer and keep a vet fund for emergencies and vet appointments you can even make your own safe chinchilla toys for a lot cheaper and save for the weekle fees and all 😘
@@shayvaughn22 i did lots of research before getting my chinchilla. ive had him for over a year and he gets plenty of time outside his enclosure and roams around my house all the time. i make sure all his areas are safe for his feet and that his food is natural too. i never get food from the stores and only get his food from shops specifically for him. i spend so much time with him and he still doesn’t like me very much :/
@@sarag.4562 i adopted my chinchilla as well and have had him since june of 2019 so almost 2 years. i don’t know if it had to do with the breeder but he is very aggressive and no matter what i do or how much time i spend with him he doesn’t like being touched very often and encloses himself :/ i’ve tried everything and have tried so many different things i’ve found from other owners.
Just subscribed 💕 I love the way you care for all these animals!
I'm OBSESSED with different accents in English and I have to say your American accent' s probably better than my British so don't be too modest 😉
well... my dreams are ruined. ..
Honeyxhoe lmao same
🤣same😐
Not really just get a little job on the side at your local hairdressers washing hair, or at a takeaway or a small shop. If you're at school.
This lady makes it seem more expensive. You only need *ONE* CHINCHILLA! NOT TWO. You can get free cages off the internet and u can get them for 50 bucks less at Petco bruh
Morrison Family The ones at pet stores are not nearly big enough. And while you can get one chinchilla, it will not be happy, and will be deprived of socialization and it could possibly get depressed.
( I know this comment is late )
This video make so hard if I wanted a bunny or chincilla. I chose chincilla and we are in the works of getting them. This video is so good for people who need help trying to figure out want they need for a chincilla. I love you Em, keep up the good work!
I just came across this video I am looking into getting a chinchilla in April for my birthday. I have 5 months to prepare. Really liked how you did the listing for it! Gotta do that to keep in perspective lol
Kaytee isn't really a good brand, and paper bedding isn't recommended for chinchillas because it can cause blockages. Also, with the Critter Nation cage, you would want to make anti-pill fleece covers as well as ramp covers because plastic isn't good for chinchillas to be chewing on. They would also need chinchillers because they need to be kept at a cooler temperature. I'd recommend getting Oxbow essentials or mazuri chinchilla food. Chinchillas also need a wheel, and the best wheels out there in my opinion are the ChinSpin and the metal flying saucer wheels, and the good wheels usually cost around $ 50-100. You also forgot about the food bowl. I'd also recommend Oxbow Timothy hay. Chinchillas shouldn't be fed fruits, nuts, seeds, or things with sugar in them. For treats I personally give my chinchilla rose hips and regular cheerios. I've been doing research on chinchillas and their proper care for around 6 years, as well as on other small animals.
She is so cute and the chinchilla is adorable, the reason I feel the need to watch her videos is because her personality💯✅👻
So I was reading the adds in an old popular mechanics magazine they’ve got an astonishing amount of adds for starting up little chinchilla hamster rabbit etc. breading operations. So I just looked around a bit came across this video of yours and with your cute accent and peppy personality I subscribed I really have no idea what your videos are about but you seem like fun!
I look forward to getting to know your video content!
Don’t use Kaytee. They have mould in the food and the food has killed tons of rats, mice, hamsters and chinchillas. Please be careful when selecting brands.
Thanks and have an amazing day 💗😉😘
Well that may be correct for the food, but I can tell you for sure that their bedding is exceptional and will work VERY well for hamsters/rats/guinea pigs
A couple of ways to cut back on the "Ongoing cost" of certain items:
1. FOOD: There is a type of rabbit food that has been deemed by the community to be safe and healthy for chinchillas: Manna Pro SHO. This food can be bought in bulk at most farm and feed stores in the USA, and one bag for one or two chinchillas can last the better part of a year. Couple that with good quality hay CUBES (still contain long-strand hay for healthy digestion) and you run about 40 dollars per year in food. Because it is a bulk food, though, it is important to keep the pellets in an airtight container in a cool, dry place in order to preserve freshness.
2. BEDDING: If your chinchilla is not a chewer, a good option for reusable bedding is fleece. Fleece pads can be plenty absorbent to wick away pee, and with some careful folding can also be a quick cleanup for the mountain of poops chins make. Just make sure to never wash fleece with dryer sheets, or it removes the wicking property.
Some great advice there. Thanks for contributing x
American accent on FLEEK!

Thanks so much for this video! I would love a chinchilla someday, and this definitely made me aware of that it will have to be when I'm financially stable enough to get a little guy! ❤️
You should do an update! I love your videos ❤️. But after having chins for a long time, I realized quite a few things! For my chins, I spent around $2,000 within the first year. The years after got cheaper and cheaper. They need liners for the ferret nation (which was also a plus you had in your video!), which is made out of anti-pill fleece. This is because they can’t digest plastic, and it could easily kill them! You can sew them for cheap, but since I don’t have a sewing machine, I just spend $120 on the hammocks and the liners! Kaytee is also a horrible brand, but Oxbow Essentials is amazing! And the water bottle should go outside of the cage, since they’ll eat the plastic right up! They also LOVE to jump, so a lot of ledges are needed! The bedding is also horrible for them. Mine are litter box trained with aspen wood chip bedding! They will eat the paper bedding and it can also kill them! (Their ladders should also be lined with fleece because they’re known for breaking their legs on the ladders). Only kiln dried pine is best for chewing (and lava ledges). Chew toys are best as the lava rocks and the wood though, so you were covering a large percentage of it! Absolutely no hate! You can’t be a professional about every animal, so many animals have different needs! So basically absolutely no plastic within their reach and only kiln dried wood or ceramic/glass (and lava ledges/rocks)! But all the love, I absolutely admire you!
thank you so much for this video! I had no idea about chinchilla care and it's really eye-opening/applicable to most pets regarding ongoing costs. having a pet really is a huge investment!
I'm offensive and I find this American.

I live in mid-America and I have three Chinchillas. Your start up cost are spot on. I have that exact cage. I spend about $100.00 a month to maintain my happy baby’s. That gives them a variety of thing to chew and also the dust baths and bedding. Their wellness vet visits are not included in that monthly cost. When I take a holiday I have to have a house sitter for them cuz I don’t want to trust any other enclosures.... Love your channel and watching all your videos. ❤️
Hi! I use the exact same type of bedding that you used for the price in your video for my snake. I have to say that it has lasted me for about three years and there's still a 1/3 of the bag left. That being said, I do use a decent amount of bedding every time because my snake loves to burrow so I would highly recommend this type of bedding for a chinchilla.
I don't personally own any snakes, but I wouldn't use rodent bedding on snakes, just in my opinion, and I don't recommend paper bedding for chinchillas, I have a chinchilla, and some might try to eat the bedding (like if they are stressed out or live in bad conditions at the time or prior to getting it) and in general they don't really burrow (some might but its not very common) I highly recommend using fleece as bedding and you can wash it and reuse it. Paper bedding can work great for some chinchillas, but its better for hamster, gerbils, and other small animals that love to burrow.
I found your channel yesterday and I've already watched all your videos~
You are really amazing and I look forward to your new videos ^^
Sending love from Italy 💖
I got my 3 chinchillas off of KSL from previous owners and all together they probably cost $250
which included chinchilla dust, two cages, a bag of bedding, bag of Timothy hay, dust bath bin, and some toys
(it's a lot easier to cut down the cost if you get them off of Craigslist or another website. though, they're probably going to be older and you dont know exactly where they've come from or what they've been exposed to, so be careful)
continuous costs include bags of food and Timothy hay which I buy monthly. i used to buy new toys for them every few weeks but now I make my own. but again you need to be careful because chinchillas can't process everything and some wood is actually very bad for them to ingest.
dust is also a reoccurring cost but I probably only have to buy a big thing every 3 months.
also, I wouldn't get a chinchilla unless you know you can afford a big cage right away, the one i have was around $80 but isn't as big as i would like to get them in the future. dont get me wrong, it fits them nicely, I would just like them to have a bit more room to play and run around because I'm the type of person to pamper my animals.
Okay hope that helps someone at least if they're looking for other ways to get around costs. dont forget to make sure they're legal where you live too, so incase of an emergency you can go to the vet.
another side note, I wouldn't keep the opposite sexes in the same cage, males in one and females in the other.
Good find
This video kind of goes overboard with the costs, I also didn’t spend much at all. I actually got my chinchilla for free. After that I spent around $120 on everything else, including the cage. Just gotta find good deals :).
I had done research for just over 2 years before I got my 2 floofballs. Still learning so much about them, and building the relationship with them too. Still looking for a decent place for toys as they ruin theirs in minutes. 😅
I don't now I just freakin love your channel ..your personality is so amazing..
Great video and info Emma !! I used to grow hay, oats and timothy in my hay lot to dry to feed me Degus and at one time I had 43 of them and they are so adorable and love how vocal they are :)
do not buy Kaytee pet food for any animal! They have really poor quality food and it can be dangerous for some animal.
so glad I found this channel. very much enjoying it.
I’ve only just started to watch you and your amazing and you make me laugh 💞
I've been wanting a chinchilla for a while now but I wasn't sure on how much everything would cost or at least an estimate this helped a lot looking forward to the day I'm able to afford one thanks for all the help 😊
omg just found your channel and I'm obsessed 😍
Franz Ferdinand me to she really raps the video up
omg i love you!!!! your accents are amazing
I just found your channel and so far I love you videos. By the way you did really well on your American accent.
My chinchilla lives alone cause he eats toes off every chinchilla he has lived with. He has two 6 ft enclosures that my friend connected through welding. Hes spoiled and his friends are the cats they always play together 😂
cats shouldn't be anywhere near chinchillas its both a health and safety concern
@@danighostflower2959 I'm sure she knows what she's doing....they are her animal's after all. There are always exceptions to the rules....Check out "Animal Odd Couples" on YT and you'll see a whole lot of animals "that shouldn't be together" but wouldn't have it any other way.
Early !! Clicked so fast on notification.!!😂 I love your channel. I look forward to more videos!
Woohoo! Early Creature Crew!
Emzotic thanks for replying it made the rest of my day😊💗
Love your info btw,Thanks for putting this info out there.
Hey em, I'm from America and m saying your American accent is on point👍👍and, you are cute with all of your animals😊
Thank you. Your last video on chinchillas was amazing and is why I'm getting one and now this. Thank you this really helps me, because my mum says they might cost to much so now I have to do the convincing game.
Thanks for the info on chinchillas accessories. Planning on buying to chinchilla females. Doing my homework.😊
i'm getting a chinchilla in like 2 weeks so this really helped!
You're both beautiful creatures!
As domesticated chinchillas have been bred from two different subspecies, they often maloclude due to their differing upper / lower jaw shapes depending on what the individual has inherited. Not to mention that their tooth roots can grow and also become exceptionally painful!
In the UK most insurance companies don't insure for chinchillas due to their dental problems- or, if they do provide insurance, dental issues aren't covered. Not sure how it works in the US.
Anyhoo, I adore your videos! Thanks so much for posting!
I love you so much, you're my favorite youtuber ever! you should start vlogging and you even seeing this comment makes me extremely happy! I love how you always reply to your fans unlike other youtubers, I'm happy to be part of your animal crew. I love you so much! I don't own any animals AT ALL but I still enjoy watching your videos.

LUKASI You're too sweet :) I'm glad you're happy here x
DONT GET KAYTEE DONT GET GET KAYTEE DONT GET KAYTEE please don't buy kaytee products
I have a hamster and he has Katee bedding and he is extremely happy and playfully it is not dusty, it's just the Kaytee food that's bad. please do you research before making claims
I don't think it's the brand that is the problem. It is a good rule in general to read the ingredients of of your pets food. Also as far as i've experienced the chinchilla food Kaytee makes is really good.
Marjorie Madison why?
theres nothing wrong with kaytee stuff
There are some really bad products like crittertrails and there's also pretty good things like there critter baths although they do say it's good for chinchillas but it can hardly fit a large Syrian hamster
This Video Was So Helpful 😭❤️Thank You Sm
i personally dont really like kaytee because ive read online that they add in too much products and other things like that. but i did enjoy your American accent attempt!!! love you!!!🐭❤️
this video was so informative, I really had 0 clue it was gonna cost this much LOL, goddammit :C they are so adorable tho!! & love your videos btw! ♡♡♡
Great vid!! Chinchilla's are sooooo *CUTE*
I love this video and it totally made me think!!
Thank you so much for doing this. I have wanted one for sooooo long but never had a chance to do up what id need to save for one or well two. I know in a lot of places where I live it's illegal to own a female so id have to get two males which cuts the cost of spaying or nuturing. I just got a new job so I been thinking about it more. So you just helped me out greatly!
your so adorable, can't wait for more creature feature 🙂
Love ur videos Emzotic. You are so cool and smart. Btw ur American accent is on fleeek. Though when u said neutered with the t u exasperated it. Other than that u can fit in. And that New York accent is pro.
I have 2 8 year old chinchillas who I rescued over the summer with all of their things for free, the thing I wasn’t expecting was that I’d pay for a lot more energy every month. They need to stay at low temperature, under 70 degrees Fahrenheit. I live in an area that is often over 100 in the summer, so while I’m at work I need to have the ac on all day. I feel it is worth it because I do love my chinchillas however I didn’t think about it before getting them! Thank you for this video though, it’s good to be informed of cost before buying an new family member!
Could you do this for Skunks?! Ive been wanting one forever and Im trying to get all the information on them as possible. Love your videos by the way!
your channel is educational and cute at the same time!! 😄😃😀
Omg will you do a how much having a pet snake cost? Love these videos and love you! ❤️
That's a lot more variable, if you were to take a bunch of different snakes and plot of graph of snake size against cost, you would see a positive correlation.
The larger the snake you get (really talking about pythons and boas here), the larger the enclosure, and larger food items you will need to give it.
I spend about £35 a year on frozen rats for my 4 foot royal(ball) python.
The vivarium and accessories doesn't add up to that much, maybe £200 depending.
You can always build your own vivarium too for cheap.
I use a carpet for the snake, its absorbent and easy to clean with a hose, I think this is more comfortable for snake than bark chippings or something.
Your heating will depend on the snake, you will want a thermostat too (or dimmerstat for light based heating).
Other accessories like hide/thermometer/waterbowl dont cost that much.
But it all depends on the snake you get ultimately, some may have more complex needs.
But typically since they don't eat so often, they are cheap to feed, unless you have a 20 foot snake.
i spent on everything but the snake nearly 500 pounds but the snake i got was a royal python female she about 4 and half feet
I'm hoping to get a chinchilla once I save enough money and I found this video very helpful, thank you!!
omg the whiskers on that chinchilla
So funny. I'm from the states and a New York accent seems to be the most challenging Impossible .... great video. So love these animals. I've considered it often after meeting one about 15 years ago. God I'm getting old Really eye opening video. Helpful too! I will start preparing now so I can get one in four years.
plot twist: her american accent is really her main accent and she is just acting out her english. lol i'm jk i want a chinchilla but they are so much work!
So... First of all... In love with your video... Second... My chinchilla is eleven years old and is just the best thing to have in the universe👌🐭🖤
lovely chinchillas. great video!
I always wanted one but I know I don't have the time for another pet :(
I already have dog and turtle.
thanks for the video Em ❤
love your vids and editing
Omg please do this for a ton of other pets very interesting and educational.
Im just binge watching ems videos-
Your american accent sounded so good 😂 i talk just like that.
Hey Em! I love your videos! I was wondering what you do with all of your animals when go on a vacation? I am going on a five day trip to Florida and I have a six month old Crested Gecko, with no pet sitter, how would you suggest I still keep her food and moisture up while I'm gone?
gosh i love this girl!!
I pet a chinchilla before and they are so soft! They are so adorable!
Love your pets and videos 💜
