I noticed that when they live alone, they get used to people really quickly. When there are two or three degus in a cage, they tend to ignore humans and don’t let anyone touch them.
How have I not seen these video before? I thought I'd seen all the CZcams degus. This guy is the best out of all of them. Mine are far from relaxed. My eldest is happy with me but my two newest (rescue) degus are extremely timid.
the arm thing is no worry. I've seen my boys often holding onto things by 1 arm holding their own body weight. looks no where near that amount of pressure he's being groomed and if it bothered the degu he would let out a short squeak to say oww they often chew at eachothers ears and arms lol
Wow j'suis choquée comment vous arrivez à faire ça ? Le mien il aime pas être sur le dos, même si il adore les câlins. Je suis surprise c'est trop mignon
That's a scared degu...not a happy one. And the way you flipped them over with lower back unsupported and kept pulling at the arms... Hope you're better with them by now.
Degu on side or back usually means ill or stressed and playing dead. Poor thing it literally trying to push the guy away. That's not tameness people. Even a degu on it's own asleep doesn't sleep on it's side.
Not true. In rare cases you get degus who are completely relaxed with their owners. My degus sleep on their back or side all the time, it's perfectly normal.
You shouldn't hold degus like that, it's natural instinct to play dead when held In that position as they used it in the wild to trick a predator. They do not like it. He/she is playing dead I do not mean this as hate by the way, just some advice and your degu is very cute☺️
well I'm not sure if that's the case here, although I heard that can be an explanation why they are so calm like this, but this one was especially calm at all times,. The degus I have now are not even close to this state of calmness, but always trying to escape.
insideman82 oh ok, and I'm sorry if you took it as anything other than friendly advice, as that is all I meant it as, I understand what you mean by how calm s/he was.
@@Dream_Trance I know with rabbits if you hold them on their backs, they get kind of hypnotized. Some are more sensitive to it than others. I do believe degus must also have it :-)
I would also like to know as I do it quite often, obviously not a whole one, but between the 3 mine i'll share a quarter of a full wheetabix so a fairly big chunk, but they munch it in seconds, but considering how good a wheetabix is for a person.. I don't know how good it is for them so I don't do it often. as Degu's eat low nutritious foods, vegetable leaves and petals usually, few nuts/seeds, degu nuggets and ofc a ton of hay.
If I saw my gerbils acting like that, along with the fur condition, I would know my gerbil was sick or on the verge of death. I've heard that degus are very similar in disposition to gerbils... But I don't have personal experience with degus. This video just makes me very concerned about its health. Hope this baby was ok at the time of filming.
The animal is being tortured and you do not see that ?? the degu acts as if he had a nakose in it .. you can see immediately on the fur because it is not at all okay! honestly do not understand how to be so stupid and something does not see and even comments like "oh how sweet" can post below !!
Hmmm to me he didn’t look happy. His teeth don’t look good- do you have a company for him? Or do you keep him by himself? Degus should have company of other degus otherwise they get depressed.

Miss Smally same

He's adorable, but I don't think you should pull his/her arms but that's one cute degu 💕
the arm thing is no worry.

Segorisk Johnny ok. I've never seen a degu look so relaxed. He's lovely 💕
The arm pull was soooo gentle by the way :) (no animals were harmed during this recording)
Is it soft? My kitty 🐈 is soft and he purrs.
It's so cute
very cute
Awwww all pancaked out loveing snuggles i love when you tickle under there chin and there tiny lego arm goes up
@insideman82 Aww, that's so cute! I had a degu like that. He'd fall asleep on me within minutes.
ssssooo cute degu
Wow j'suis choquée comment vous arrivez à faire ça ? Le mien il aime pas être sur le dos, même si il adore les câlins. Je suis surprise c'est trop mignon
Omg so cute any tips for getting them that tame?
CGplays this was some exception, I have no idea why :)
That's a scared degu...not a happy one. And the way you flipped them over with lower back unsupported and kept pulling at the arms... Hope you're better with them by now.
dude, he was more than happy, believe me, these were just cuddles and very gentle stretches :) I care for animals!
my rats were this steady once.... when they died....
oh rip
do a vid about degus
I got Degus too, and they don't like that. 😒
Ему нужен друг, второго пушистика заведите:)
DEGU 😍😍!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love he

it's ok, don't be sorry, I didn't take it as anything else, it's just I was also surprised by degu's behaviour, that's why I shared this video ;)
I'm not sure about it, mine when on the sun is relaxing the same way, belly up :) and seems happy
@@Dream_Trance I know with rabbits if you hold them on their backs, they get kind of hypnotized. Some are more sensitive to it than others. I do believe degus must also have it :-)
Ich habe 4 neue degus und alle mögen es 😊
😍😍😍😍😍😍
Hi can you give degus wheetabix my daughter has been giving a few crumbs with there pellets there 2 brothers great little animals
I would also like to know as I do it quite often, obviously not a whole one, but between the 3 mine i'll share a quarter of a full wheetabix so a fairly big chunk, but they munch it in seconds, but considering how good a wheetabix is for a person..

Bitesize shredded wheat (original) is perfect for them and they go crazy for it.
I’m not so sure weetavix would be good for them.
Whilst high in fibre it is high in carbs and they can suffer from diabetes quite commonly
No is scaryy degu!!!!
is that degu alive?
yes, it was alive at the time i filmed it, but sadly it died some years ago now (from old age) :(
insideman82 did your degu have a partner?
oh, sorry didn't see this question. Yes, it had partner, but it's gone now since some years sadly. I have 2 other degus at the moment.
skypeinsideman82 F in the chat bois
Dude that thing is drugged mine won’t ever stand still]
A me sembra quasi morto😢
Why my degu is never like degu in the video???.....😞
Tomáš Martin Zajíček I'm not sure, but the ones I have now are not even close to being this relaxed.
If I saw my gerbils acting like that, along with the fur condition, I would know my gerbil was sick or on the verge of death. I've heard that degus are very similar in disposition to gerbils... But I don't have personal experience with degus. This video just makes me very concerned about its health. Hope this baby was ok at the time of filming.
it was ok :)
Таке смішне
He looks like druged degu
he may have just felt too comfortable and be trusting, but good point :D
The animal is being tortured and you do not see that ?? the degu acts as if he had a nakose in it .. you can see immediately on the fur because it is not at all okay! honestly do not understand how to be so stupid and something does not see and even comments like "oh how sweet" can post below !!
what's wrong with you sir? noone tortures a degu, far from that, it was just very relaxed, relax and take it easy
Hmmm to me he didn’t look happy. His teeth don’t look good- do you have a company for him? Or do you keep him by himself? Degus should have company of other degus otherwise they get depressed.
tak, zawsze były 2 :) ale ten już dawno zdechł
