if your degus are like mine they will play for a bit then rest then play then rest
No, degus do not hibernate. -Owner of twelve degus. Have had twenty-three.
Two degus are much, much better.Two are better because degus are very social animals and absolutely crave attention. You could get one though, if you gave it lots of attention everyday.
I don't think so
They go to sleep in the evening, and wake up around 7:30 or so; They wake up in the morning, for sure.

No. Degus are rodents, and rodent are not marsupials.
baby degus are called pups
In piles with other degus and in their FLAT topped houses.
Generally, no they are not. But some degus may be allergic. They should only have them as a rare treat, though, since degus are severely prone to becoming diabetic. -Mommy of twelve degus. Have had twenty-three.
cats eat degus just like they eat mice and rats
Degus can live indoors no problem (actually, they should live indoors), but the size of the cage is a concern. Degus should live in communities -- at least, there should be two of them, but ideally there should be more than two. (Although, they must be introduced carefully; don't just throw a bunch of degus together!) Many "rabbit cages" on the market are too small for degus (and too small for rabbits!). A good-sized rabbit cage, multi-levelled, is fine for a few degus. Degus need toys and accessories in their cage, too.One person wrote: Try not to they could chew it up... There teeth are very sharp like they can chew stuff like cloths and blankets...
