Degoe winter products – extra warmth, comfort and enrichment for cold days
In winter, you want one thing above all: a stable, draft-free, and comfortable habitat where your degus feel safe. Degus often seek out extra shelter, softer places to lie down, and more indoor activities. In this category, you'll find winter products that help make their stay more comfortable, without the hassle: think warm hiding places, extra nesting and lying materials, and enrichment to keep them active. Always combine this with a good foundation: plenty of degu bedding , unlimited degu hay , and safe activities like degu gnawing material . DRD Rodent Shop® has been a specialist since 2011 and selects winter items that are practical and suitable for degu natural behavior.

Why winter products for degus?
During the colder months, degus are more likely to seek shelter and comfort. Providing additional hiding places, soft resting areas, and ample bedding will make their habitat more pleasant. At the same time, it's wise to add extra activities to keep degus active and prevent boredom.
What do you look for in winter items?
Choose products that are suitable for gnawing behavior and maintenance: sturdy, easy to clean, and safe to install. Always ensure your enclosure is draft-free but well-ventilated. And: comfort is nice, but the basics (hay, bedding, safe furnishings) remain paramount.
