How long do baby gerbils stay with the mother?
Gerbil pups should remain with their mothers for at least six weeks, if not eight, even though they are weaned at week four. Gerbils still have many behaviors to learn, and separating them from mom early can lead to gerbils being aggressive and untameable.
How often do baby gerbils feed when bottle fed?
Baby gerbils should be fed by their mother, but if this isn't possible, it is best to use kitten replacement milk (purchasable at pet retail stores). Feed them at least three times a day with an eyedropper until the gerbil is around three weeks old. Then you can alternate between Cheerios or bread soaked in the milk and the eyedropper of it to wean them to real food in the next week. Gerbils should be able to start eating seeds and gerbil mixes around 4 weeks of age.
