With regards to my previous post on degus foraging, a comment was left asking: how can I persuade my degus to dig? I was going to reply to this comment directly but decided, instead, to create a post answering this question (as best as I can) - in the hopes more people will read it.

I have recently made a slight change to the bottom level of my enclosure. I have added about 35cm of substrate to the level. Past the break you will find further information and pictures. Click for more...
This is a video of my degus enjoying the finer things in life :) They get egg box scraps, pea flakes, peanuts, fresh water and a sandbath!
For some reason degus love egg box carton, they enjoy picking it up and traipsing around their house with it. They also love fresh water, their water is replaced daily but they only seem to enjoy drinking it immediately after it has been replaced :) Remember: Degus should only be fed peanuts once or twice a month. Enjoy! :) This video features my first degus and thier adventures in thier new degu vivarium. This video is quite late at night, so the degus are settling down to go to bed, after thier fascination with the camera tails off.. See how they tuck themself in at the end.
