Do gerbils die if they are lonely in a cage?
No they do not, I have a female and she has lived alone for 2years now, and she is perfectly happy how she is :) Hope this helps. :) Some gerbils can live alone but some can not. Some gerbils live shorter lives without a cage buddy.
Can male gerbils nurse their babies?
um no, only female gerbils can
Can gerbils get fixed?
Male gerbils can be neutered, but it is not recomended. Female gerbils should not be spayed. In general male gerbils should not be neutered unless there is a good reason for it.
What is the plural of gerbil?
The plural of gerbil is gerbils, as in: I have two gerbils. Hope this is useful.
Can a older male gerbil get a younger female gerbil pregnet?
Yes. Male gerbils, no matter how old they are, can impregnate female gerbils. Most female gerbils can no longer conceive after 2 years of age. Either way, it's never wise to put a male and female together unless you intend to breed and provide for several litters. Gerbils are not easy to find homes for.
Are female gerbils hyper?
Only if you give them crank.
Do the ages matter if you put 2 female gerbils together or will they fight?
No I have two female gerbils (Minnie and KE$HA) and KE$HA is clearly older and they get along fine.
Why do gerbils have a forked uterus?
I'd be interested to know where you heard that as I've done necropsies on female gerbils and have not found that to be true.
Are gerbils male?
...You are kidding, right? Gerbils are mammals; some of them are male, and some are, well, female. They reproduce the way mammals do.
When will gerbils have babies?
About 28 days after the female gets pregnant.
Do female gerbils have periods?
Gerbils go into heat ever 4 day. There are no outward signs that they are in heat, unless a male is in the tank (in which the male will attempt to mate with her)
Do female gerbils bleed when they have their 'period' there was blood in my female gerbils cage i cant find where it came from and she seems to be fine?
Gerbils do not have periods as they are oestral mammals and not menstrual ones like us. Some oestral mammals have a bloody discharge, but not gerbils. What you saw was most likely to be a smear of porphyrins from a gland near the gerbil's eye.
