In some cases Degus have known to full pregnant at around 8-12 weeks. Thats why its adviced to seperate them at about weeks

As Spookymuffin informed us on a post some time ago, female degus can be impregnated as early as 6 weeks if they have had good nutrition and good housing conditions. So separation at 6 weeks of age is a VERY good policy. ;-)

Our girls were approxametely 3 months old when they got pregnant. It's better to be safe than sorry, that's why we're seperating babies when they reach 6 weeks old.
