Yes. Actually, it's better to have two gerbils of the same sex, since they can't reproduce. Several male gerbils together in a large enough cage will thrive. I have six males (daddy + five male offspring) together in a 25 gallon tank with a screen lid.

Try to have at LEAST two gerbils, since they are family animals, and don't do well on their own.

Also try to avoid having gerbils of the opposite sex in he same cage (unless they're fixed, of course) because they tend to reproduce alot, and they have 6-12 babies at a time.

Good luck.

I would think so, since there is no male in with them they can't mate. However, you might run into trouble with fighting if you put 3 in a cage. You might not. It all depends on how well your particular gerbils get along. If you do put them together, make sure you have a large enough cage so that they are comfortable and not squished in together.

No, they are best kept in a large fish tank with a wire lid as they love to dig and chew.

Gerbils are easy to pick up, all u have to do is just put your hands in the cage and wrap your hands under their body and lift them up. after you do it a couple times it will get easier. hope this helped! ; )
