Hi for some reason Taco is using his John Hopwell drinking bottle as a shower, It's hilarious to watch but he get's everywhere wet. He does it everyday now since he discovered it. Basically he rubs up against the water release valve and he actually raises his arms and turns his body like someone scrubing up in the shower and get's himself wet, he get's a dust bath all the time so not sure why he enjoys getting wet.
Oh well, funny little thing..

I would love to see this, any chance of a clip? I think the relationship between degus and water/moisture is often misrepresented. In their natural habitat there is quite some rainfall during the winter months and in some regions also extensive fog. But I am not suggestion you build Taco a jacuzzi

Actually Bambi is doing exactly the same thing shown on the video. It was me, calling it fighting. It looks like it's not so uncommon.
