'Science Selective Degu
A unique baked monocomponent diet, formulated specifically to meet the nutritional requirements of degus. This carefully and scientifically chosen blend of high quality ingredients is designed to mimic the natural diet of a degu, which requires a very low fat diet and high levels of vitamin C (500mg/kg), together with high quality alfalfa-based fibre to aid healthy digestion and dental wear. Broccoli and basil provide further antioxidants for their known nutritional benefits.'
My dad got some today from a random pet store, it has broccoli and basil in them and one of my degus is obsessed with basil and they both love them and the bag even has a relealable zip o.O they are like shreddie sortof size, have you seen/bought these? are they ok?

[candehllama]

i was given, a bag of these, when i fostered a group of goo's, but have been unable to get any from our local pet shops, which shop did you get them from? xx

My dad forgot where he got them from since it was just a small store around here that sold some animal food and he noticed them, but they are sold here cgi.ebay.co.uk/supreme-science-selective-degu-food-350g-/380081582577?pt=UK_Pet_Supplies_Small_Animals&hash=item587ea0b1f1#ht_908wt_695 too

My Degus LOVE these! I'm not sure I can feed them this everyday though? I feed them this and another type of Degu food and try to rotate them.

I have bought these today as my pet store had ran out of the normal nuggets I get so I bought these and thought id just introduce them gently (as you do). I mix my normal nuggets in with XtraVital degu food and my goos always go for the Xtravital first BUT...since ive put this new stuff in today they have picked out all the new bits and left the XtraVital, I was soo shocked! they really love it! Im thinking of definitely getting this again.
Its a little bit more expensive than my normal nuggets but from the sounds of it these are much better for them and if they prefer them then its a brucey!

Mine always go for the Biscuits first and leave the XtraVital until later. Dean steals ALL OF THEM out of the food bowl and hides them away from Sammy the minure they go in the food bowl! It's so naughty, but ever so cute and funny to watch. I give them two each per day so they don't JUST eat that (even though it's good for them).
