  • Awww my degus yawn in the morning and it is soooo cute! xx

  • Comment removed

  • He is such a cutie, how old was he in this video?? he was the reason why i wanted a degu lol but my 2 which i got in october do NOT sit still, do you think they will in time, as there stil young now?! x

  • i like Degu poop, it so tiny, & not mushy at all. I sprinkle them on my daughters cereal. They're actually a good source of vitamin B12.

  • It's looks like your Degu it's very lonley..... He's sad, these animals are very fast, happy and they should play all the time. ..

  • @Gieniusia maybe he/she is resting?

  • very boring pets. you're lucky you have a cool one. all 3 of mine are skittish mean ass little fuckers. I absolutely can't stand them anymore. Ive tried training them everyday for months to like me but they don't even like bein petted. THEY SUCK.

  • Aww, cuuute.^^

  • That's a rat!

  • @CraigMohan Thats your mother !

  • @MetallicaForHope So my mother's a rat and yours is a 15 dollar whore with 75% discounts on weekdays, you must be awfully proud .\.

  • @CraigMohan Go Fuck Yourself :D

  • @MetallicaForHope Ur Momma ^_^

  • @CraigMohan I think your 40 or something ... and thats all you can say ?? "Ur Momma" ?? Damn stupid people

  • @MetallicaForHope U mad son? I can tell you're on your period, must be all those emo ballads you femtallica fans are so fond of that turns you into a butthurt chick xD

  • @CraigMohan Sorry, I really dont have the time to explain you what is Metallica about.

  • Makes me miss my little Ding. Yes, they are social creatures, getting two is perfect, but at the sametime. Introducing a new friend for them is very difficult and they tend to attack the newcomer. If you do, do a brand new habitat for them so the territorial difficulties are removed.

  • I dunno whether to get 2 degu's or 2 chinchillas

  • Hahaha my degus Merry + Pippin (who can guess wot my gave film is?) insist on sleeping on my pillow so when itz their bed time I lie down wiv them and just carry them into their cage afterwards ( 2 sleepyheads don't even wake up)

  • Wait, wait, what? Question: is a degu a gerbil or not? Plz tel me.....

  • @VocalistIsoganeMia Not gerbil! :)

  • so cute but please turn the music down dude's trying to get some zzz's

  • How can I get them to just sit in one spot, they're always running around when I take them out of the cage, and when I pet them, they try to nibble my fingers, and the adults take the nibbling too far.

  • you can get pet degus

  • sounds like a fart right at the beginning haha

  • i just got one :D

  • @beardeddragongirl9 then get another one quick

  • @beardeddragongirl9 What Jambozal said! It's not good having just one

  • Hes soo adorable.. Did he pass away cause the disciption sayz in his lovely memory if so aww hes so cute Hehe I had3 now only 1.. Aww miss em little ass_ Gave them to petco right when we sold them to him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

  • :* :* :* :* he is so sweet :* :* :* ;*

  • i saw my chinchilla yawn one time too, its extremely adorable!!

  • i'm hopefully getting two degus soon, hopefully my mum will get them for me >w< does anyone know what sex is more well behaved, coz like hamsters, i heard males are more friendly is it like that with degus or is it just the same?

  • steel dragon=BAD ASS

  • that music's its spleeping music!!

  • awwww i want one!!! lol

  • im getting two females soon and i think their so cute

  • sooo cute <3 

  • I have 3 degus they are so cute

  • Your degu will sit by you like that? My degus run all over the place The only way I really get to hold them when they're still is when one of my baby degus gets out of the cage through the cage bars. They get scared afterwords and let you hold them.

  • HAHA =)

    Sweeeet

    i have a degu too

  • Cool bet , nice ring .

  • pleeeeease not only one!! get two ore more and the minimum cage measures are: 100*60*120 cm. and they need partners of theyr own: and please get two of the same sex. they are very social animals

  • @videofreak168 actualy, don't put 2 males together. ever! unless they've been nuetered

  • @NekoGirlRules it doesnt matter!! they have to be the same sex!! thats important. i have two groups!! 1 male group with 4 males and 1 female group with 3 females!!

  • you have sexy hands i say.......

  • its a mini chinchilla right ?

  • WOw what a cool looking little guy. He kind of looks like a gerbal, but a lot bigger

  • What a sweet little creature.

  • :( one of mine died a year ago and my other one died a few months ago, you get so attached to these little guys they're such characters. rip Betty & Lola :(

  • simply adorable! Where do you get one?!

  • I have four males. They are very nice pets. I have never been bitten once by them, and they always love getting on my shoulder and exploring. =D

  • Aww so cute

  • steel dragonnn...

  • my degus like being stroked under the chin he tilts his head and smiles

  • I Have two males

    both are anti-hug

  • so sweet (L).

  • he likes to do it :) so cute mine does it too :}

  • why hes eating itself when he had massaged?

  • DEJANABG1 - it's a Degu... hence the title. Pronounced Day-goo. Look it up on Wikipedia bro, they make awesome pets...

  • What is this animal?

  • @DEJANABG1 Its a degu you can buy these from local pet shops £/$45 a pair

  • What is this animal?

  • its so cute.. :(

  • I've got 4 girls. They're all well behaved but one in particular is like that. I just ignore any criticism on here because after all, they've only seen one short video and not the whole life story so they don't really have a right to slag other peoples animal care off without knowing the animal!! Just thought I'd make my point! :-)

  • wow hes very well behaved =p

  • Not to be harsh but that degu spends most of its time chewing the hair on its paws and they're clearly quite bald in the video. Very much a bad thing. The degu must spend a lot of time bored, depressed or otherwise unhappy due to lack of a degu friend :(

  • ITS SO CUTE! XD I want to poke it^^ It looks like its in paradise~

  • Can Degus eat alot of dandelion leaves? plus what other plants can they eat please?

  • STEEL DRAGON :O:O :D:D

  • How lovely! they look so comfy and love your petting hehe x

  • A degu is a cross between a guinea pig and a squirrel. It's a natural cross and they live in Chili. It's a real plague up there!

    I had 2 degu's, the man who I bought them from said they were 2 male's but actually they were 2 PREGNANT famale's!! rusult: 15 degu's!! They can have 4 to 10 baby's !!

  • They're not a cross between guinea pigs and squirrels. They're a ground squirrel that naturally evolved in Chile from the same ancestor as Chinchillas and Guinea Pigs have. There's hundreds of thousands of years of evolutional differences between Degus and squirrels.

  • You say the hard version, I say the easy one: cross between squirrel and guinea pigs.. Are you really saying all that to your friends when they ask you what it is?

    I'd yawn too ^^

  • My point is to call them a "natural cross" is entirely wrong. A mule is a cross between a horse and a donkey. The horse and donkey actually had to mate to make a mule (which is sterile as most crosses are). A guinea pig and squirrel never get near eachother to make a degu, thus no cross involved. I get what you mean though, that they look like both of those (I usually say they're like a squirrel and chinchilla myself)

  • @Nateb123 Listen, I'm from Belgium so I can't understand half of the words that you're saying :) But still thanks for the information, i've got mine from wikipedia so I can't say if it's true..

  • what exactly IS a degu? it looks like a cross between a gerbil and a guinea pig. maaad cute tho.<3

  • It's basically a bigger version of a gerbil.

  • They're relatives of guinea pigs and chinchillas although there's really nothing else like them. They're very intelligent. They're awake pretty much whenever you are since they take little cat naps. They're also super active and love to chew things although I've had no problem training them to not chew things outside of their cage. They're also very social. You can get only one which will bond very strongly to you but it's an unhealthy bond of desperation. So get 2+

  • so adorable!

    and love that he's lying there listening to the song from the movie rockstar!

  • are these as big as a guinea pig or a gerbil?

  • in between, more towards a guinea pig though.

  • have u treined him to not pee in your bed or is it somthing you just dont care about?

  • It's not scared. Degus are pretty smart (easily tamed), and can bond with humans.

  • how in the world do go get it that calm and tame? :P

  • Degus are pretty smart

  • this will sound kind of weird but i sleep with mine all night :) i had 2, but 1 died :( and the one thats left isnt gonna live for much longer as shes skinny, her eye is runny and she;s missing a lot of fur on her face. one side of her face is wet all the time and hairless, and the other side is completely normal but she still acts like shes 2 years old:)

  • You need to take her to the vet she's got a curable problem. Take her to the vet, its worth keeping her alive.

  • @joeyzx: What did it suffer from? Did u keep him solitarely? It is strange that he knibbels his feed. Normaly it is a sign of a desease...

  • So spoiled :-)

  • why is he/she so calm?

  • If the degu is kept alone, the bond with the owner is much stronger. They'll want to sleep with you, talk to you, groom you. Not too sure it's healthy though as how would you like it if you had no one who could play the same games as you, speak with you or keep you company, etc?

  • So cute.. Our degus only cuddle when they get food :P

  • i miss my degu so much. it died earlier this year and i miss him more and more everyday, it lasted 5-6 years, so i got so attached to it within those years. he got really sick and died... :[

  • i'm getting one. And i'm gonna name it Pikachu

  • Don't get one - get at least two! Degus are social animals, and you don't want it to get lonely!

  • @liquidskyfire Yes, but they must be from the same litter and all of the same gender: no mixed litters either way.

  • lol Pikachu xD

  • @ShikatFilms dont get one! it wont last a year always get two

  • @ShikatFilms haahaha I've got degu, Pikachu 10 years ago

  • cute :)

  • I used to hav 1 but unfortunately it got sick and ... u get it . I didnt buy him a partner but i wished i did , now tht i think about it i hate myself for it . i had him for 5 yrs... i will luv him 4 ever :( i miss him soooooo much :(

  • aw...

  • That music would make me sad too.

  • Thats sad, because its looks upset, because they have to live in atleast a couple, or they get lonly, depressed, and mite get mad or not eat, its looks sad there =[

  • I want one so bad, but have heard they can be very aggressive. Is this true?

  • I have a degu for a 5 months and it still doesn't allow me to take him on hands and all the time it's running around, and i'm freaking out while trying to catch it... there are some times i wish i wouldn't have bought it, because it's very noisy especially at nights... but nevertheless it's very, very cute and i love it!!!

  • try to handfeed it, dont chaise it. :)

  • Hm, don't chase it otherwise it associates your hand with predators. Let it smell you and reward it with a small treat when it comes up to you. Also, try not to pick a Degu up from above as they are naturally afraid of tings coming from above. This is because their natural enemies are birds of prey.

  • @AXABaby bacause you only have one!!!!! it is going to die if you dont get at least two

  • @CrashedSoFast no it i snot true but get at least two

  • Holy F*#@! Why is that thing so cute? It's too cute. It must be stopped...

  • aww the yawn was soo cute.

  • I may be getting a degu soon, or a chinchilla, or a chimpmunk, but no sure which one to buy

  • Sounds good but if you plan on getting a degu, you should know that they should never be kept alone. Degus should live in pairs or groups. I dont know about chipmunks, but Chinchilla are more solitary than degus.

  • is it sick there or just sleepy?

  • if he was really sick his teeth would be white and not orange. He's just relaxed and sleepy

  • aaaw i wish mine would just sleep on a pillow! <:D mine was sleeping on my leg today it was cute. ^^ he's such a cuddler

  • that degu is well chilled so sad u lost him :(

  • aw i wish my degu would just lay there like that! mine is so hyper all the time!

    but when im scratch him he smiles at me its so cute lol.

  • I'm so sorry that you lost this handsome chap. He's clearly very relaxed around you which is lovely to see. I can quite see why he would be well missed. Lovely.

  • they act weird, like i thought they would be like hamsters and gust be retarded, but they kind of act like cats or dogs.

  • Omg he/she is so cute :) add me i wanna know how long they live for?

  • now thats one chilled out degu

  • do degus behave somewhat like guinea pigs?

  • they make noises alot like guinea pigs but i dont think they act the same. i dunno. ive never had a guinea

  • he is really beautifuul degus:D

  • my deepest sympathy.

    this degu was really a lovely one

  • the song in the background almost made me cry....because the poor little thing passed on... ='[

  • thanks, great advice hun!

    one question!! mine are male and female, and i want to get the boy nuetered!

    both are 10 weeks old approx. what age should i get this done at?

  • hmm i think there is no age when this procedure isn´t bad for the male degu. sometimes you have luck and sometimes the degu is to shocked.

    At first i had as well male and female bute the male couldn´t handel the operation, 2 weeks later he died an it was horrible for me to see how hard it has been for him, but the female degu und the little babies gave him a lot of comfort at the last days. Ask your vet what he thinks, and if he already had done such an operation at a degu.

  • wow, so tame

    i just got my degus and he is very hard to catch when im claening out his cage.any tips to make him more mellow like yours??

  • Just start to let them become used to your hands, your face, your smell. Hide always some favorite snacks in your hands and let them try to get them (at first just feed them with your hands they need a lot of energy so feed them often). Play with them in the cage. At first do Not stroke them, do it like them bop the cheek or the neck they like it.

    sry for the bad english. If you want to know more I raised 8 Degus and took 4 from the animal shelter. Feel free to ask

  • dajavo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i used to have one there good pets even tho i dont know what makes them up when it comes to rodents

  • that is so adorable!!

    <3

  • Mine had babies a few weeks ago. She had 6. But died. The others are doing well :)

  • what a cutie! he doesnt bite or anything and he must trust you a lot to get sleepy around you and out of his cage... ommmmggggggggg so cute!

  • So god damn sweet

  • so adorable <3

  • That is so gosh darned cute.

  • mine dont even like me holding it for longer than bout 30secs. unless she knows shes gonna get a treat

  • ce dinti are si cum casca cu ei :X
