.....i have seen in a long time i witnessed last night. i told you guys our degus had babies. well Darla has been taking them out one at a time since about the time they were 3 days old. no big deal. mommy got a bit upset the first time but after that she was fine. last night Darla decided to take out all 5 babys at once. all 5 of which, we discovered, can sit comforably together in my T-shirt pocket. mommy Degu didnt like it. i swear if we could speak degu our ears would have been ringing. the babies had a blast but Momma sat and cussed us out for the better part of 30 minutes after the babies were placed back in the cage. we even gave her some corn and sunflower seeds as a treat but she continued to yell at us while she ate them. it was hilarious. not once did she try to bite but boy did she have alot to say on the matter.........
