How long do gerbils care for their young?

Gerbil parents will care for their young for as long as they are there with them or until another litter arrives. A gerbil pup should wean at four weeks, but it is recommended to keep it with its mother until at least six weeks, if not up to eight. At this point, it is best to separate them into male and female tanks and away from mom and pop, since mom will probably have another litter well on the way and gerbils are sexually mature around 10 weeks of age. If the mother has another litter, which shouldn't be until around 5 weeks of the older litter's lives, see how the mother reacts with them still in the tank, but it most likely will be time to separate them.
