Hello, lately i've noticed, that after getting a new food for him and pouring it into his bowl, he started screaming? and throwing the food out of the bowl. After about 1-2 minutes he found 1 nut and just stopped and started eating. Is there a reason why was he so "aggresive" towards the food?

I can answer this really easily; degus hate change. He's screaming because he wants his old food back. It may be an idea to mix his new food with his old food so its not such a major issue for him and he can get used to it gradually.

It's true. Even if you relocate their favourite hut, they'll hold it against you.
Any dietary changes should be made gradually over at least a week. Sudden changes can also upset their delicate tums.
