Hi
My babies are 4 weeks on the 21st and i have noticed that they are trying to hump each other already.
I have looked and can tell they males from the females

How early can i put the boys back in with dad, also will he be friendly to them or do i have to do it slowly.

Fingers crossed i've homed 3 to a member of this site and 2 to a friends son. Only 11 more to go.

My Degu's: Pan, Lyra

The babies will start to show signs of growing up now, its there instinct to start humping for dominence!
I would put the boys in with dad at the 6th week, just to make sure. Some breeders think 4 weeks is enough to seperate them but i think being with the mother that little bit longer does them good.
Good luck with homing the others
