Very cute and friendly!! Seven (6) Babies!! Contact Tom & Linda at (815) 485-2068
Serious inquires only!!

Degus, or mini-chinchillas as they are sometimes called, are as easy to care for as a hamster or guinea pig, but are better pets because they are naturally day active, live longer and have a more group oriented personality. They actually like to come out to play during the day time!

Degus make truely excellent pets! Much better than traditional rodents like hamsters and gerbils. For one thing, degus are diurnal, not nocturnal. That is, degus are awake during the day and sleep at night. No squeaking excercise wheel at midnight and no bites on the finger because you are trying to wake a grumpy hamster up in the middle of the afternoon. These guys are energetic, curious and ready to go when you are. And they live 4 or 5 times longer than a gerbil or hamster. We have seven (6) Degu Babies not sure of jender yet, only two weeks old. If interested call (815) 485-2068.
