Yes. They are not nocturnal, which is good. You want your pet to be active during the daytime so you can play with it.
most good pet stores sell gerbils but if not then there are a few breeders that you can go to, I myself am breeder
maybe if they are gentle but otherwise a good pet would be a bird
Yes definitely! Check out this website: http://www.abcgerbils.com/whybest.html
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.
A good class pet would be a gerbil or a guinea pig I have 2 gerbils and theyre good with people and and rabbits have heart attacks easily!
You usually feed gerbils muesli or nuggets from the pet shop or WAG food which is much cheaper but is not as good for your pets they also like bread and fruit .
The correct teeth clipping pliers are available from good pet shops
because your gay, get a dog!
they are furry rodents. if there is a dander alerigy then gerbils do not fit.
food
It doesn't matter if they are popular or not if yo are looking for a pet bacause they make such good companions! But I dont know about the U.S. but in the U.K. hamsters are most popular!
we dont have gerbils. we have guinea pigs. and depends where you get them from. pet stores can be from $10-30.
