I rescued a male chinchilla about 3 months ago. i was told he is 4!
he loves being petted and looooves his chin scratches but a few weeks after he got settled in his new home everytime i go to pet/scratch him he gets ahold of my hand and tries to what i think? is hump my arm? i was thinking maybe he was just trying to climb up my arm but i dont think thats the case. he dont do this behavior to anyone else that pets him, not even his cage mate who was thought to be male but turns out was female. just my arm!!! is this a dominance thing? and if this humping behavior...will he ever grow out of it? i attached a pic to show what he is doing?
