Why choose Beaphar Care+ Degoe?

Degus can be picky eaters. With a mixed diet, they may pick out exactly the parts they like best, while other pieces are left behind. With all-in-one pellets, this is much easier to prevent, because every pellet has the same composition. This way, your degu receives the same nutrition with every bite.

The firm extruded kibble gives your degu something to chew on thoroughly. This makes mealtime more active and helps them consume the food more slowly. The composition is tailored to degus and contains, among other things, fiber, minerals, yeast, algae, and carefully selected plant-based additives.

Also nice: Beaphar Care+ Degoe contains no added sugars. This aligns well with the nutritional needs of degus, allowing you to consciously choose a straightforward basic diet and appropriate snack times.

For which animals is this food suitable?

• Degu: suitable as a complete pellet food for degus. Feed the pellets as a weighed daily portion alongside hay, suitable herbs, and clean drinking water.

This food is specially formulated for degus. For mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils, dwarf rats, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and chinchillas, you should preferably choose food specifically formulated for those species, because their nutritional needs are different.

Feeding & use

Feed Beaphar Care+ Degoe as a complete pellet food for degus. The guideline is 10–15 grams per degu per day. The correct amount depends on weight, condition, age, activity, and how much hay and other suitable food your degu eats in addition.

• Give a weighed portion of pellets daily.
• If necessary, divide the portion over two feeding times.
• Use 10–15 grams per degu per day as a practical guideline.
• In addition, provide hay as a regular, fiber-rich base in the enclosure.
• Combine with suitable herbs, leaves, and degu snacks where desired.
• When switching feed, transition gradually by temporarily mixing the old and new feed.
• Check appetite, droppings, weight, and leftovers in the bowl regularly.
• Store the food in a cool, dry, and tightly sealed place.

A good daily routine is clear: hay as a fiber-rich base, a measured portion of pellets, and, where appropriate, natural herbs or leaves for variety. This keeps feeding clear and allows you to quickly see if your degu is eating well.

Daily portion guideline

The recommended amount depends on the degu, condition, and activity. Use the guideline as a practical starting point and then closely monitor appetite, weight, hay intake, and leftovers in the food bowl.

This guideline is intended as a practical starting point. An active degu may have different needs than a quiet animal. Therefore, always observe body condition, appetite, and how much food is left over.

This composition is designed as a complete all-in-one pellet food for degus. The plant-based foundation, vegetables, and minerals ensure clear daily nutrition, while FOS and MOS support the intestinal flora. Yucca schidigera is often used for its role in controlling stool odor.

Switching to Beaphar Care+ Degoe

Switch gradually when changing food. Mix the new food with the old food for the first few days and gradually increase the proportion of Beaphar Care+ Degu. This allows your degu to get used to the smell, taste, and pellet texture.

• Day 1–2: mix a small amount of new food with the old food.
• Days 3–5: feed approximately half old, half new.
• Days 6–7: mainly new food with a small amount of old food remaining.
• Then switch completely when your degu continues to eat well and has normal droppings.

During the transition, pay close attention to appetite, hay intake, activity, and droppings. If you notice clear changes, build up more slowly or seek advice from a knowledgeable veterinarian.

Good to know

Beaphar Care+ Degoe is a complete feed, but that does not mean that pellets need to make up the entire daily menu. For degus, hay remains an important fiber-rich base in the enclosure. In addition, you can use suitable herbs, leaves, and carefully chosen snacks for variety and foraging behavior.

Store the food in a cool, dry, and tightly sealed place. Check the smell, texture, and freshness of the pellets, especially when the bag has been open for a while. This ensures the food remains appealing and pleasant to feed.
