no but they can make you sick
If the human scent gets on the young gerbils too soon when their skin does not have any hair on them, the mothers will kill them because of the different scent.
i really don't know can someone plz tell me cause i think i killed my gerbils babies i kept spuizzing my gerbils stomach allot
They wouldn't fight, the ferret would simply kill the gerbil.
No, don't use crittertrail cages with gerbils. Unlike hamsters, gerbils are chewing machines. They can ingest the plastic which can kill them, and by chewing the plastic they can escape. I would use a 10 gallon tank instead. Gerbils cost around $10 each from a pet shop.
Cats are predators and inclined towards killing small animals. A cat will almost certainly try to kill a gerbil.
yes they have 3-7 babies but kill one so 2-6
No. Cohabiting different types of rodents can result in the death of one or all of your pets. Rats kill mice, a behaviour known as muricide and gerbils and syrian hamsters are both extremely territorial and would kill any intruder.
No it's actually good for them, but you have to buy the hay, because normal hay might have parisites in them.
Very doubtful. Baby aspirins are given to dogs for pain. Gerbils are too small of a creature. Give your local vet a call.
No, rats are predatory towards other small rodents. It would kill a gerbil.
No. Two totally different species. In fact, the gerbil will kill the mouse. They shouldn't be housed together.
If given the chance, yeah, most cats would. Gerbils pretend to be hard and invincible but they are quite vulnerable and when they get scared they are little wimps. =) They are rodents, cats eat practically all small rodents and birds
