Awwwww :wub:

How cute are they!!!

I used to have a gerbil called Coco when I was a kid, she was very tame and we used to take her on holiday with us to Suffolk

As I remember, her favourite occupation was shredding toilet paper to make into a lovely cosy bed for herself :thumbsup:

i used to have them as a kid Jane, started with 2....i told dad i thought 1 was eating all the food....but then one morning mum looked in the cage and id gone from 2 ......to 8 :lol: :lol: .....they were ment to both be female but needless to say they i think 1 was a little lad! (w00t) (w00t) (w00t)

i had to take them all back to the pet shop and they sorted out all the girls and i took them back home

Gorgeous colours , don't know how deep your floor covering is but you want it to be as deep as possible preferably about 6 inches . They burrow and make tunnels . We had two , they lived in an old toy box and they used to pop up from their tunnels . They don't need cleaned out as much as other small furries as they don't smell

 

[peppermint lady]

yes they have their bog rolls june! :b

i brought the a gerbilarium from pets@home, but they dont seem to be going up to the top part, the top looks like a hamster cage :unsure: the shavings are really deep and Elisha loves wathcing them dig ....i might try to get hole of an old fish tank (but bigger than the gerbilarium) to keep them in that what i kept mine is as a kid :thumbsup: il keep an eye on them to make sure they venture to the top....as this is where the food and water is ment to be kept....i have moved the water down and they both had a good drink :sweating:

they are so cute :wub: :wub:

 

[Janimal]

[whippetmad]

What little cuties :wub:

 

[jezza]

Is it this cage you've got? If so, have fun cleaning it, its a chuffing nightmare :lol: The stupid ladder just seems to get in the way and all the time I'm trying to stop three little spiney mice from pinging out of the tank part :clown:

I love your new gerbils, lovely colours :wub: I used to keep them when I was at school but haven't had any for years now. I think I might have to get some more in a few years time )
