I can not use the "search" on this forum. Sure there are more such topics. Do degus can eat acorns? Oak is poisonous? In Poland we do not give the oak because degus can not cope with tannins. Please help. I have a lot of acorns, and I do not know if I can give them.
Very thanks.

All nuts are given sparingly, as they are high in fat and oils. So, one or two a month per degu is probably as much as you should give. This is actually a good question for Davx, though.
Davx, what do you recommend for frequency of nut/acorn consumption?

I suspect you will find that they will limit their own consumption of them. I have fed oak twigs and leaves and they liked them but didn't eat many in one go.
