The Cage
A degu's cage should be large and spacious. I recommend a big glass aquarium with a metal cover or a normal cage. But the best of it, is to put a aquarium at the bottom and a cage at the top! So they can climb and move as they want. I also recomend that because air doesent circulate well in a aquarium, and a metal cage is rarely enough big.
In the cage
Some tings are really important in a cage. A cage must at least contain :
- Some wood sticks
- A little house or box for them to hide
- Some food and water
- A good ait circulation
- Alot of pine shavings at the bottom (essencial)
You can also get some toys or mini wood shelfs in a pet shop, but those are only extras.
