My gerbils have always been fat and happy. Then, my daughter and I lost heat and we all moved, then we had to go on a little trip and had to move their enclosure while we left. So, their enclosure was moved twice in a week before going back to their original place. Now they’re home, but they’ve both started thumping quite a lot which they NEVER did before, the friendly one who loved to come out and chill with me won’t come near me to be handled, and that same one has lost weight (he was quite chunky so he still looks healthy but still). I’m so bummed cause I feel like I’m starting over.

estos peces son vejetarianos, dales pepino precocido o hojas de vejetales precocidas seran la solucion, los vejetales crudos son muy duros, prueba con materia vejetal pequeña, casi microscopica, raspa alga de los cristales del acurio y el raspado ponlo en un lugar accesible para los alevines y cambia los huevos o los alevines a un resipiente mas pequeño donde puedan estar mas tranquilos y donde puedan tener mas facil acceso a la comida que Tu les des, tambien es recomendable cambios parciales de agua.

Is cotton bedding ok? I always used this for my hamster, and it works amazing with burrowing! I don't know if it's toxic for Gerbils. I was planning on getting a hamster, but Gerbils seem fun too, and I would like to have more than one animal. Is there really a big difference in hamsters and Gerbils? My hamster died a week ago and I did gave it a hamsterscaping and a big terrarium. Carefresh is really expensive in my country so I rather not buy those.

Unfortunately cotton bedding is not safe for gerbils nor hamsters! You can try aspen wood shavings, or a different brand of paper bedding. Hay can be used to help sustain the burrows as well

@@finsandwhiskers I have 2 Gerbils and the person said that they were to males but I think ones a girl and the other is a boy. I’ve checked Google and YT on what to do with the pups if they had any but nothing really helped. I know nesting is normal but the other things are mostly what male and female do. I know it can also be a a dominance thing to. My small on Bagheera is smaller compartment to Gingernut but I presumed it was a runt.

Me and my brother tried to have a look if they had yk but it’s not easy due to there small and not like hamsters. Another thing people suggested to keep the dad away from the mum when she has the pups cause he’ll try to mate again which can lead to 2nd litter but some say keep him cause he helps.

One of my two gerbils are always bitting. Hiting a cage with nose, or cage base, scraching with his nails. When ever hes out on the couch, when he see my skin he bites. He was a little agressive when we got them. Hes not biting only when i give him a sunflower seed.😢 idk how to get him to trust me

hi my gerbil got sick. She just lies there with his eyes half open, and when she walks, he twists the back of his body. Would you be able to tell us what to do because there is no veterinarian in my area who would treat rodents. I haven't seen her drink or eat yet, and she lets herself be petted for a long time, even when she ran away in the past. (I have a friendly relationship with her and she trusts me, so she was walking on my hands). She is 2 soon as well.

I have a question so I’m getting two gerbils soon and I have a small cage, not terribly small but a little smaller than the recommended one. I was wondering if I let them out daily like in a play pin or so would they be fine?? (Temporary till I get a new cage or tank)❤
@finsandwhiskers
@finsandwhiskers 4 ай бұрын
Is it possible that you can wait to get them until you have the right enclosure? If not, and it’s temporary, then I think it’d be fine to have them there-I wouldn't recommend taking them out though because they will be new to you, and intimidated. You should at least wait two days before trying to introduce yourself to them! ♥️
