About Us

                                                        
                                                                           Smudge                                                                                 

                         We didn't get to say goodbye, but Matthew and I will miss you always, you.always be our favourite.

We bought our first chinchilla, Smudge in September 2001, as you can see from the picture above he was an adorable Wilson White. Sadly Smudge passed away, on the 31st of May 2004.

We now have a small show quality herd of around 40+ including; Standards and various mutations; Beige, Black Velvet, Brown Velvet, Pink White, Wilson White and the more rare Ebonies and Violets. Our chinchillas are truly some of the best in the country.
We breed mostly show quality animals and we are proud members of the National Chinchilla Society, attending the all Region shows.
Our chinchillas all have names, as they are not just numbers to us, they are all very tame and are real little characters, all very individual.
We sometimes have young and older proven chins available due to the lack of space so please check the chinchillas for sale page, I try to up-date it as often as possible but please don’t hesitate to contact me as I do have a waiting list.

I have tried to design this web site to be as interesting and informative as I can, however any suggestions would be welcome on how to improve or add to this site.
