Baby Care?

I recently rescued four chinchillas and one of them is a baby (i didn't know there was a baby till i went to go get them). The people said she is 11 weeks or so born labor day weekend, but she seems to be too small to be that old. I was able to take her to another chin owner and weigh her, she only weighs is 95 grams. They were feeding all four hamster food. Could this be why she is SO small? Second is she old enough to have dust baths?

She is alone and doesn't have any other chins in her cage. Will she be warm enough? Will she be fine on chinchilla pellets and regular water? How much food should I give her? Is it the same as adults (2 tablespoons)? I am giving her alfalfa hay for added nutrients. Also any other advise would be nice as i have never had experience with babies.
