We got Kandi at 6 1/2 weeks old because her mother ran out of 
milk/calcium and I have to say it ways WAY to early.  We had issues 
where she wasn't getting enough milk and she would go into the shakes 
and also with behavior.  I do have to admit she bonded well with 
everyone in my family except my oldest daughter who has never had the 
time for her.  I wouldn't suggest getting a chi early.
