Gerbils can first be sexed at 10 days old, when the nipples begin to show on females. This is, however, not a very accurate method, but can give a basic idea of sex ratios in your litter.
Gerbils five weeks and older can be sexed easily by the amount of space between a gerbils urethra and anus. Females have less space, while males have considerably more space for testicles.
