No, gerbils are definitely social animals, but they are territorial. Gerbils get depressed if alone, and may even become aggressive. It is best to keep gerbils in same-sex pairs, this way they have one buddy, and there is no chance of declanning, which can happen with groups of gerbils mroe than two.
because your gay, get a dog!
they are furry rodents. if there is a dander alerigy then gerbils do not fit.
It is most likely to be Meriones unguiculatus, the Mongolian Gerbil. No other gerbil breed is commonly kept as pets, near to 100% of pet gerbils will be the Mongolian.

Pet gerbils are generally considered to be safe from hantavirus, as the virus is primarily associated with wild rodents like deer mice. While domesticated gerbils can carry other diseases, the risk of hantavirus transmission from pet gerbils to humans is extremely low. However, good hygiene and proper care should always be practiced when handling any pet rodent to minimize any health risks.
No
pet stores, usually
Yes. But at pet store they should have a group of gerbils. Only buy a gerbil if both are from the same tank at Petsmart or Petco, or your local pet store. If your gerbils start fighting, take them back. WARNING: If you see a tank at a pet store contained of fighting gerbils, don't buy a pair.
If it is a pinky that was breed for snake food than no, pinkys are breed just for food, a pet fancy mouse is the way to go. If bought from a private breeder they can be more friendly and will have much better health.
