Best Answer

Yes, until they are at least six weeks old. You can even choose to leave the father in there, because he will help raise them by sitting on them and keeping them warm. Gerbils pups will depend on their mother for food until they are about 3 or 4 weeks old, at which point they will open their eyes, run around, and begin chewing on gerbil food and drinking from a water bottle. The pups should remain with their mothers even after they are weaned because they develop better social, grooming, and survival skills during this time. Most gerbil breeders will leave their pups with the mother for seven or eight weeks, but watch out for unwanted breeding during this time because a gerbil pup can become sexually mature by six weeks.

Can you introduce gerbil to a hamster?

It's not a good idea. Gerbils can live together in groups of several, if the cage is large enough. Hamsters, on the other hand, live very solitary lives and will fight with other hamsters when they become adults. I have never seen a hamster and a gerbil living together, and I can only imagine that the hamster will attack the gerbil if left alone with it for more than a couple hours.

Can you pit hamsters in a cage with a gerbil?

Gerbils and hamsters can live together if they're docile and nice to each other. If they don't get along, the larger rodent could get into a fight with it and kill it. While they could live together, it is best not to mix them together.
