If a Gerbil is glossy and is growing fur then you are feeding it enough. Usually gerbils are happy if they have a mate or companion in the same cage and are provided regularly with food. Gerbils often respond to music and I have found with my Gerbils that they enjoy Classical Music with a woman singing. You can tell if they are relaxed if they are half closing their eyes. I own a gerbil. When he is happy he seems to squeak a lot. Also, he/she may get hyper and run and jump a lot. also if you hold it believe it or not gerbils purr you cant see it or hear it but you cant feel it
your mice will be happy as long as they have plenty of space, fresh food and water and lots of toys, suchs as cardboard to chew on and newspaper to sleep in, a clean cage, and of coarse, lots and lots of love. the best way to tell if your mice are happy is if they are eager to try new foods (but some mice dont like new foods, most do!), they they have bright eyes, and that they keep their fur looking clean and shiny, and that they are playing. adding new items can brighten the day for a mouse. hope that helped!
showing your love for it.
Your gerbil is doing amazing.
Keep him warm, fed and healthy.
well, usually if you pick the gerbil up, you can feel in its stomach things that feel like small potatoes. the gerbil will obviously be larger.
I just bought a gerbil for £7.95 really good price. I am very happy.
A gerbil is full grown by 6 months old and measures 7-8 inches including the tail.
its a gerbil and just so you know gerbil does not start with a b
if it starts gaining super powers
It all depends on what you feel is best for your gerbil. You can call it any name you want.... someone I know named hers after brands: Hershey, Snickers, Reeses, etc.
they are curios animals and love to know everything about their surroundings.
Like if you intruduce a baby gerbil to a female and a male gerbil they might be nice to him but the male gerbil might play fight or fight in the cage i do not think if you leave the baby gerbil in the same cage with the male gerbil or a female gerbil the female gerbil migt fight or play fight with the baby gerbil if u do please be real care full because if the male gerbil no that the babby gerbil if its a baby girl gerbil yhey will mate or if u do the same with the adult female gerbil they mate to with a baby boy gerbil or adult gerbil will mate to and also mate means that the female gerbil have babbies with the male gerbils .
