you can either pick one up carefully by its sides, or let it crawl into your hands, or scoop it up. do not ever pick it up by its tail neck.
i have one degu i rescued from a place where they adpoted off his fellow degu separate and he was there for a while. i need to get him a new degu play mate....any places in southern maine??
This all depends on what gender your degu is. If you have a male degu, you should get a male degu, but if you have a female degu you should get a female degu. In other words you should get same sex pairs. But oviously if you want to breed get a male and a female, but be warned they breed like crazy!
In captivity, degus typically live between 5 to 8 years, but some have been known to live up to 10 years with proper care, including a healthy diet, plenty of exercise, and regular veterinary check-ups.
Yes as long as it isn't dusty.
I'm not quite sure what you mean by this question. Degus are shaped like a degu.
Degu's can lose their tails as a form of defense, a degu should NEVER be picked up by it's tail. their tails do not grow back
yes it is possible to tame a degu
Mountain Degu was created in 1844.

• == == •The Degus sense of smell is very good; keep this in mind when you go to handle it. If you have just been eating, your hands smell like food, and it may try to bite your fingers! == == •Never grab, lift or try to pick up a degu by the tail. They can easily lose part of their tail. Shedding their tail is a natural defense of wild degus to escape if caught by the tail. It does not grow back and can permanently affecttheir balance.
The fastest way to pick up women is by use of a car.
Degu Debebe was born on 1984-01-01.
a degu averagely weighs about 5-8 ounces
Only if you want the degu to be killed and quite possibly eaten.
Predators of the Degu include different varieties of bird and foxes.
Another way to say you will pick up the mail is to say you will collect the mail.
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.
