Gerbils are NOT agressive! I have two gerbils of my own and they are the friendliest animals I have ever met. Also I heard that gerbils are the friendliest rodent and they do make a great first pet. The only time gerbils will bite is if you dont handle him/her enough, or if you are doing something that they dont like. For example, if you hold them for too long and he/her is trying to get out of your hand like crazy and you wont let the gerbil out it may bite. But out of everything gerbils are NOT agressive!
Not at all as long as you are gentle. I have 7 adults and 6 babies at the moment and none are aggressive with me.

Are 2 gerbils good pets?

Can rabbits live with gerbils?
I'm not really sure, but if your gerbils are a bit aggressive and your rabbit is sensitive, I wouldn't really recommend that. Try it if you want, tell me what happens!(: Absolutely not. Rabbits are too large, and will hurt a co-habiting gerbil.

No, gerbils are definitely social animals, but they are territorial. Gerbils get depressed if alone, and may even become aggressive.
