OBX Chinchillas

OBX Chinchillas is a chinchilla breeder in Salvo, NC, Dare County and the Outer Banks near Nags Head. Jamie Presgrave has dedicated several years to breeding healthy, well-socialized chinchillas and stays connected with regional breeder and community organizations.

All breeding adults undergo regular veterinary checks and health screenings to ensure long-term well-being. Chinchillas are housed in spacious, climate-controlled enclosures with soft bedding and daily gentle handling that encourages trust. A balanced diet of high-quality pellets and fresh hay supports digestive health, and environmental enrichment includes tunnels and chew-safe toys.

The farm’s coastal location provides natural light and gentle sea breezes, creating a calm environment for the animals. Families often note the chinchillas’ even temperaments and robust health as a reflection of meticulous care. Each kit receives daily socialization and guided introduction to gentle handling, which promotes confidence as they grow.
