I love Degus they are so much fun. But Tuddle was lonely and they are by nature social animals. So we got him a buddy named William or Willy for short. Any Willy joined us around the end of August. Anyway Tuddle and he got along well and played a lot. It was great watching them in their male innocence. Anyway Sunday Tuddle was singing like he did a while ago. But his song was so pretty and seemed to be different then his other songs. See Degus like to sing when they are emotional like after they mate. So anyway My son Jarrod made mention that their were babies in the cage. We told him impossible because we were told Willy was a male. Well after he saw a baby again I went to see what the fuss was about. Turns out Willy is now Lilly a proud FEMALE!!! We now have 7 new babies and they are so cute. In my recent photos I uploaded you can see the pile in the middle of the cage and those are the new babies. Just thought I would share.
