I have one bowl per degu as they are terrible for being possessive over their food! Just give them sheets of newspaper and they will shred it up / move it to their own personal preferences for their nestbox. They love newspaper!!!

Fiona - most newspapers are made with vegetable dyes these days and so are totally safe. Mine LOVE their newspaper, yes, leave the nest box empty and just stick a few sheets of newspaper in the cage and the degus will do the rest!
Shredded paper is also great if you use one for security. I give them the shreddings to snuggle into as well.
