Hi there! My name is Jace, or GizJaz. I have been looking for a different type of rodent I could get into owning some time in the future. After scanning over rodents, I came across Degus! I am very interesting in owning degus but for now I'm sticking with researching so I can know all I need to know, so don't mind the many questions I'll have!
I currently own two hamsters, and a dog as my other pets.
I'm very excited to learn more about degus and meet some new people!

Hi Jace, nice to meet you Degus do need a bit of research because they can be quite a lot more demanding than hamsters, they need a lot of space and diet takes a bit more effort than just pellets. They can be very rewarding and fun though, two big advantages are that they are diurnal and have relatively long lives, but of course this takes a bigger commitment from you. Please note our cage and feeding advice are more up to date than degutopia, so this is why there are quite big differences, medical advice on degutopia is good though.
