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.

No, hamsters are solitary, and also omnivorous. A gerbil would run a great risk of being killed and eaten by the hamster.


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.
