Degus can eat a variety of vegetables, but some of the best options include bell peppers, carrots, and leafy greens like kale or romaine lettuce. It's important to introduce new vegetables gradually and in moderation, as degus have sensitive digestive systems. Always avoid starchy vegetables and those high in sugar, such as corn and potatoes. Fresh hay should remain their primary source of nutrition.

Can a dagus live with gerbils?

I'm assuming that by "dagus", you mean "degu". It's pronounced "day-goo", but that's how it's spelled is 'degu'. It's a cross between a kangaroo-rat, and a gerbil. A kangaroo-rat isn't a kangaroo and a rat, it's just a type of rat just like a pitbull is a type of dog, not it's own species. A degu is a fussy animal. If you get a degu at a very young age, you can put another degu in that young from another litter, or the same litter, but they tend to bond with the owner, and don't want to share attention which is why you don't want to have a degu for a long period of time, and then put a baby, or full grown degu in that same cage. Although a degu is part gerbil, it's not a good idea to put a gerbil in the cage with it. Degu's are feisty, and just want attention from the owner. You can do this if you'd like, but I have the most friendly degu, and she was very, very aggressive when even another degu was put in her cage.
