Degu bedding: diggable litter and absorbent underlays

Degoe ground cover – deep digging layers, smart zones and less mess

Degus are real go-getters: active during the day, curious, and fond of digging , pushing , and building . Good bedding for degus is therefore not an afterthought, but the foundation of a comfortable habitat. Set up your cage or terrarium to allow for a deep, diggable layer (preferably 20+ cm – the thicker, the better), perhaps with a separate digging tray. For the "pee corner," you can choose extra absorbent bedding or a mat as a base. As specialists in rodents and rabbits since 2011, we select bedding that is easy to maintain and fits natural behavior. Are you also looking for enrichment on top of the bedding? Then check out Degu nesting material and Play & Foraging .

Paper bedding (soft & easy to shape)
Ideal for excavation layers and "construction behaviour", often pleasant volume and easy to spread.

Carefresh Natural → | Paper Bedding Natural →
Cardboard bedding (Card N Card)
Firm, airy texture: easy to mix and practical for daily maintenance routines.

Joris No Smell Card N Card brown → | Card N Card mix →
Natural fibers (hemp, flax, wood fiber)
Strong base for a “solid” layer and useful as a mixing component or undercoat per zone.

Flax 20 L → | Mini Hemp 4 kg → | Wood Fiber →
Cotton blends & comfort layers
For those who like to add a softer structure (e.g. as a mixture) and want to make the enclosure extra “full”.

Cotton N Flax → | Cotton N Hemp → | Cotton N Fiber →

Layer upon layer: how to create a degu-proof digging bottom

A practical approach is to work with zones and layers: (1) absorbent substrate (e.g., hemp/flax/wood fiber), (2) a thick digging layer (paper bedding, card bedding, or mix), and (3) a "toilet zone" where you can change the litter more quickly. Mixing (e.g., paper + card) often creates an airy structure that degus like to move and "sculpt." If you use a digging box, you can maximize the depth there without having to fill the entire cage to the brim.

Which type of ground cover suits your routine?

If you're looking for lots of digging fun , choose paper bedding or a mix with cardbed. For practical maintenance and a firmer structure, combine it with hemp/flax or an absorbent underlay. For extra "floor comfort" or to target specific areas, you can also use a mat , such as a hemp mat or bath mat . Tip: don't make it too "hard" or too "loose"; degus appreciate being able to dig and move the material.

How do you use this?

Start with an absorbent underlay (optional, but often useful).
Then make a deep digging layer (preferably 20+ cm) with diggable litter or a mix.
Choose one corner as the “pee corner” and change the diaper there more often (saves work).
Remove visible dirt daily and fill in where degus make holes.
Change the litter completely when it is clearly soiled or feels less fresh.

Checklist

Is there enough depth to dig (20+ cm or via excavator bucket)?
Have you set up a clear pee corner/toilet area?
Are you using a mix that remains malleable and does not immediately become “flat”?
Do you have enough stock to replenish (degus work hard)?
Combine ground cover with enrichment (nesting material/foraging).

Safety

Preferably choose a dust-free ground covering and ventilate well.
Do not use strongly scented woods or perfumed ground coverings.
Check mats/underlays for fraying and replace if worn.
Refresh regularly: a fresh substrate is important for comfort and hygiene.

FAQ

How thick should the substrate be for degus?
Aim for a deep digging layer (preferably 20 cm or more). If that doesn't work in the entire cage, use a digging bucket with extra depth.

What is useful if my degus mainly pee in one corner?
Make it a permanent pee area with extra absorbent litter or a mat as a base, so you can change the litter more quickly without replacing everything.

Which mix often works best for graves?
Many customers choose a combination of paper bedding and cardbed (airy and malleable) and use hemp/flax/wood fibre as a (partial) underlay.

Deep, diggable bottoms (20+ cm) for natural behaviour
Smart zone structure: digging layer + puddle angle + ease of maintenance
