Please don't worry about posting.
To me they look perfectly normal, degus do have lumpy feet, but bumblefoot usually presents itself as swollen, bleeding sores, which can be filled with pus. It's caused by walking on a unsuitable surface such as wiring.
I think she's fine.

They look totally normal to me too. Degus just have weird bumpy feet and the coloured spots make them look even worse.

Yep, all fine! Think of the bumps on the bottom of paws as things like the balls and arches of our feet. You should only start to worry about redness of those bumps. And we love goo pics

I think it's a blessing that we only get the gist of what is verbally being thrown at us, and not the whole context!!

Hahaha, thanks all!
Jeez, degu feet are so strange. I was sat there trying to see her feet for about half an hour more, until I saw savvy's post; I'm a fool haha.
Man, cannot believe you guys are able to tickle these lovelies. Sarah would not be happy haha. In time, I'll build her up to it!

We've all been there, lol.
I have one degu, Reggie, who loves being tickled, but always has. Dixie won't have it, even a quick little touch on his fur will have him swearing.
