We thought you might like to see a picture of our Degu, Monica and Gabrielle who we have had now for two years and are certainly very friendly little characters. Degu are generally quite easy to look after but you have to be very careful with their diet as they are not allowed high sugar foods as they are very likely to get diabetes. Degu can be quite territorial but often live in small groups. Once you have a couple it would be quite hard to introduce any more and by doing so would quite probably spoil the current relationship of existing Degu. Degu enjoy fresh food but this has to be limited to small amounts and they can also have small amounts of seeds and nuts. You can feed them dried mix food specially for Degu and also a small quantity of Chinchilla food.
