I have WD red for 2 months but I noticed that with time slowly degradation of spin up time. Is this normal?

 

My old WD green was replaced after 35 000 of working hours and with spin up tme of 6.8 seconds.

I did`t pay attention to this value before, maybe is completely normal...

Degradation will happen, you are using the drive so there will be some numbers that will climb only, the seek times in particular, are not one S.M.A.R.T. detail that can measure or tell you whether the drive is defective or not, it is informational only along with some others. If you want to know what S.M.A.R.T. details are critical check out this link, the attributes that denote an imminent failure are highlighted with one red triangle with an exclamation mark:
