Wondering if anyone else's degu has been diagnosed with vasculitis?
Three young (5 months old) degus from my Degu Peridot's litter have tattered ears that the vet thinks might be the result of vasculitis – inflammation of the veins at the extreme ends (like ears, toenails, tails). Blood supply is cut off to those areas and the skin/flesh there eventually dies off and falls off.
Has anyone else experienced this?
