Thistle came to me from Aileen at the Biggar National Chinchilla Society Show, at 16 weeks old. She was entered at the show but did not get an award as she is pale (lowest class was Medium to dark) but she had good comments about confirmation, shape and fur quality, but the judge did comment that she was a tad soft furred which is to be expected compared to a full standard, when she is carrying violet.
She is a lively little chin and loves to explore when she is let out on the floor to play, though she can be very lively when it comes to catching her to put her back!
She makes friends with other chinchillas very easily and took to motherhood very well - producing triplets of a good size for her first litter. Two of which went on to achieve show awards.
Thistle was lent to Caz as part of her new breeding program on a kit share basis January 2005
