seasons?

[babygoo]

I wasnt really sure were to put this but i supose it is sort of a health issue!

so basically i was wondering do degus have seasons like other animals? and bleed with it?

only when i picked up one of my degus the other day she had a small amout of blood around the area of her eurethral cone (sorry if its not spelled right!)

thanks for any replies x

no they don't, and i had the same problem with my girl, but she had been with 2 boys, (long story) she isn't pregnant as she's been separate from them for nearly 3 months.

I know i haven't really given you an answer, but just thought i'd share my experience x

Like Nicky said, they don't have "Periods" or "Seasons".

I have little or no experience in this as I don't have females, but there has been a couple of threads in the past that you might want to read (They are hyperlinked and NOT intended to scare you, lol) Just thought I'd pass them on to you just in case.

This could be nothing, but it could be bad - depending on the situation.
Is she is directly bleeding from her urethral cone (where she urinates, of course) - can you see if she has cut/clashed it? Any little bit or cute perhaps?

Or, is she bleeding from her .. female parts. (Which is a small hole(?) under her urethral cone? I know it's hard to check but try if you can.

If it's her urethal cone, try looking at this [click hyperlink] thread [Smux's experience of Loki and his slashed Urethal cone]

If it's her *female parts* then you might want to look at these two threads: (Just click the hyperlinks)
Penny's 'Period' (turned out she was pregnant)
And Asteria's aborted pregnancy (Still borns :[ )
Now I really do not want to alarm you and panic, you of course it might not be anything to do with the above.

Try seeing where she is bleeding exacting, this could help us a bit more.

as jaywhizz has said, it may not be any of the above. I never found out, why my little girl had bled, and that was back in october, and she is fine. Keep us updated xx
