You should wait until their eyes are open. Or when the mother will let you near them.
Yes. gerbils die very stiff and won't open their eyes. It doesn't take long for gerbils to die; they die faster when it is sickness or blleding that they are dying from
At day seventeen newborn gerbils will open up their eyes, they will have most of their fur as well then. At this point their will be very nervous because it's an entirely different world so be patient and gentle with handling them. Good luck with your gerbils :D.

Same as a hamster or mouse
Koalas are born with their eyes fused shut. They only open their eyes from about 22 weeks.
It takes about 2-3 weeks for a baby cat to open it's eyes.
Gerbil pups should remain with their mothers for at least six weeks, if not eight, even though they are weaned at week four. Gerbils still have many behaviors to learn, and separating them from mom early can lead to gerbils being aggressive and untameable.
Gerbils' tails should be as long as the gerbil itself. If they don't, their balance will be disturbed.
It usually takes two weeks for them to open their eyes!!
