My chinchilla might be pregnant. What are the signs I should look for?

Question

How can I tell if a chinchilla is pregnant? Pet's info: Other | Unknown - Other | Female | 3 years old

Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

One way to tell is weight gain. Steady weight gain week per week can indicate a pregnancy. You can check Mama Chin's belly, and if you notice her nipples starting to peak out through her fur, that is another sign that she could be pregnant. The best way to know, however, is to have her examined by a vet who can determine for sure if she is pregnant.
