Hi, on the never ending search to give my boys something new to eat[?], play with and destroy..... my son came upon the idea of giving them an empty coconut shell [no flesh, soaked overnight and dried] To say that they love it would be an under-statement.... ''we can sit in it, fight over it....and chew it!!!! ;D'' Any one know of any reason they shouldn't have it? [please don't break their little hearts....lol]

I did buy a coconut, drain it, split it and scraped out all of the "flesh". What a job! My hands were killing me by the time I got all of the coconut out of the shell! I made certain the shells were empty the gave the girls half. (divegirl - why did you soak the shell overnight ?) They drug it from the third level, down the ramps to their rock pile. Seem to be having a good time with the empty shell.

Hi....I soaked it because I thought it would remove any excess oil....therfore calories or sugar etc.....Just wanted to be on the safe side..... The boys love it anyway!!!

I have coconut shell in cage too. My friends got on this idea year ago. My degu very like to be locked up in it.
