Yes. I have a friend and she has gerbils that are over one year old. They have had babies. In a gerbils lifespan gerbils have around 15 litters of babies.
we dont have hair when we are born do we!
Many breeders will take in rescue gerbils. You can also visit a animal shelter and ask if they will take in gerbils.
7-8 gerbils in each liter
gerbils are all born with tails but they have the ability to lose part of their tail. It will never grow back, and it will be harder for them to balance. They like their tails.
yes, their tails grow with them.
Around 28 days of gestation
no but they will have babies and when they do the father will try to eat them so if you do have babies take the father away when they are being born. male gerbils fight with each other.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! no no. Gerbils are born with eyes, only they cannot open them for about a week - 2 weeks.Here's a really good website i used to learn about gerbils. I put it on the eyesight page:http://www.egerbil.com/eyesight.htmlTrust me, no viruses. It's great!
There are many differant breeds of gerbils some live in the Mongolian desert.
yes they are. from the day they are born they are sort-of pets in a way.
Gerbils live all over the place! There are actually many different species of gerbils. Domesticated gerbils are Mongolian gerbils, which means they are originally from Mongolia. Gerbils are desert animals, so they live in semiarid and arid places, like the deserts of Mongolia.
