When compiling a complete and healthy diet for degus, one should orientate on the diet of the degus as it is in the wild. Degus are herbivorous rodents, but not real grazers, they mainly eat herbs and other plant parts in the wild. The plant parts make up about two-thirds of the diet, along with a piece of grasses. The rest of the diet, on average about 25% over the year, consists of seeds.

Degus eat relatively little hay, so plant parts and herbs are very important in their diet. The teeth wear on the plant parts, in this way the animals get the necessary fiber and of course calcium and other minerals. These plant parts should be available to Degus indefinitely.

Hay should also always be freely available. Usually, however, it is only a small part of the diet. A high-quality meadow hay is the best choice for degus and also stimulates natural foraging.

Feeding advice Mixerama SAB Degoe Seed mix

In the wild, seeds make up the rest of the diet. For Degus, the combined share of seeds should not exceed a quarter of the total diet. As a guideline, this corresponds to approximately 3 g per degu per day. Seeds can have very different nutritional values. Therefore, when mixing seeds, special attention should be paid to the fiber, calcium and phosphorus content.
