I would guess no... they're quite sweet, so probably have a high sugar content.

No . . . no raisins, no banana, not much fruit at all really. Tiny bits once in a while, like strawberry, apple skin, blueberry are OK, but we are talking like once every two months kind of timing.

Hello Sarah There are plenty of other potential snacks and treats you can give your degus, so providing your degus with high sugar foods like grapes is not necessary...especially since we have a wide selection of healthy and low sugar treats to choose from. Have a look at this thread for some ideas. deguworld.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=food&action=display&thread=5408

That's great, thanks for the replies. i was just wondering if they were ok but my guys haven't been given them. I'll habeas a look at the list and see if there are more things on there to widen their food choice. Thanks again!
