Chinchillas Aren't Alone in Enjoying Dust Baths

From Lianne McLeod, DVM, for About.com

Added on Mar 8 2007

It is well-known that chinchillas need regular dust baths, but they are not alone. Degus should also be given regular access to a dust bath to keep their coats in good condition. You can use the dust bath made for chinchillas that is found at the pet store. As these two happy degus demonstrate, a dust bath is also great fun!
