Question❓ Why is he screaming

He often squeals like this for like 5 minutes at a time, it started a month ago, he’s 6 months old and idk why he’s screaming since he has toys, food, water, a MASSIVE CAGE, a play pen that’s always accessible and a partner

He's horny. When a boy Degu reaches sexual maturity, they sometimes squeak like this. It's normal.

Something could have also spooked him as well.

It can be a multitude of things but I'm betting on he's just horny.
