If you are quilting for a labor of love that is one thing. If you want to make money see what you do as a business. What seems to be missing with the quilters are business skills. I have looked at businesses such as, The Quilt Cafe, price range for quilts $125-$703.
Chinchillas do not need extravagant plants, treats, whatever added to their diet. The more simple the diet, the better. Pellets, hay, and fresh water is all they need. Wheat grass is the only type of live plant I would give my chin.
Chinchillas forage for food at night. When feeding, they sit upright on their back legs and hold food with their front. They eat bark, grasses, herbs, and other native Andean plants. Water is scarce where they live, but chinchillas are adapted to get as much water as they need from the plants that they eat.
