When it comes to chinchilla color matching, two chinchillas that both carry the white gene cannot be matched. At the same time, two chinchillas containing the velvet gene cannot mate with each other and reproduce. There are many colors of chinchillas. We can use the chinchilla color calculator to determine our target for breeding.

Precautions for chinchilla breeding

1. The breeding of chinchillas cannot be carried out according to preference. During the mating process, if they do it at will, If combined, there is a high probability of causing miscarriage and stillbirth in chinchillas. Even if the chinchillas are born successfully, their constitution is very fragile.

2. Except for Totoro, which will 100% match standard gray with standard gray, in other cases, several colors will appear with probability. For example, silver spots with velvet black will have 25% silver spots, 25% velvet silver spots, 25% standard gray, and 25% velvet black. Therefore, when breeding, we need to select the color we want the baby to appear in, and then make effective selections based on the existing breeding cats.

3. The gestation period of chinchillas is relatively long, about 110-120 days, and the lactation period will be about 45 days. The owner should not let the chinchilla give birth frequently, as this will affect the chinchilla's health.
