Ashy Chinchilla Rats live in small colonies under rocks and in rock clefts, below which they establish latrines of dried feces and urine. Burrows with entrances of ¢.5 cm in diameter occur near rock outcrops, under shrubs, or in stone walls. Ashy Chinchilla Rats use paths that lead away from their burrows at least as far as 200 m.
