Chinchillas require a lot of specified care, as do all animals. Make sure you do a lot of research before you purchase any animal. When I say research, I don't mean ask anyone working at a pet store. Pet stores are often driven by little more than sales and will give you lots of misinformation, not on purpose, simply because they don't know any better. I don't mean to deter you, it's just that there are way to many misinformed pet owners out there. Feel free to contact me with any specified questions.
chinchillas are awesome, gerbils would be my second route...
chinchillas!
Chinchillas are the least likely to bite, then goes gerbils, and hamster are the most likely to bite out of any rodent.
Chinchillas cost more and take more care the gerbils but both are great if you socialize and train them.
chinchillas are the best way to go, they are furry puff balls of joy and or less likely to bite then hamsters and gerbils, if they think you are a threat they will pee on you but mine has never peed on me before, they are more expencive but it is worth it, they need a 4 level cage atleast and have to have a special dust , for them to take a bath in , and have to be in a room with 60 degree temp. but all of this is worth it when they learn there name, and look at you so cute, and run up to you and jump all over you, it takes a while to train em , but you'll love em. im 12 and ive been through a lot of hamhams and gerbils and they bite and sleep all da and dont do anything exciting and they cant run up to you or learn there name or anything and chinnies are the best thing ive had, its better to get a pair of chins unless you have enough time for 1 , i only have one female but she is happy alone. and i hope i helped and you might want to read up on chins, and most websites tell you to have all thisstuff for a chins saftey but you dont really need any safety stuff because chins dont really ever get sick, or atleast mine doesnt. i hope i helped and have fun with your new furry critter
Chinchilla's are the most expensive out of the 3. All three smell worse than a rat. Hamsters and gerbils are the least intelligent with rats topping the chinchilla in smarts. Chinchilla's need a dust bath once every week minimum, while hamsters, gerbils and rats don't need 'bath' material.
With the biting issue, the younger and more you handle them the less bitty they will become.
In truth the best pet I've had in this department, since I have had all three and rats as pets, were the rats.
Rats make great pets! They have a high intelligence, they love to be handled, they don't require special needs like chinchilla's and they are the cheapest ones you can buy out of the ones you've listed.
Gerbils! I own two, and have fallen in love with them! Check out these links- abcgerbils.com- Info on gerbils! Why gerbils are best!- http://abcgerbils.com/whybest.html...
well it depends if you want one to hold. hamsters and gerbils can easily be held. i heard that gerbils chew stuff. chinchillas kind of smell so i think hamsters. i have had lots of them. they nice and cute.
i know this is out of the question but try guinea pigs
is not i say hamsters
