How much space does a gerbil need?
A gerbil basicly needs the same as a hamster but a bit more. I think it gose in a glass terarium with sand i think. But bascily a bit more then a hamster.
Are hamsters more cuddly than gerbils?
I would say hamsters but personally I have an gerbil, and my hamster died about 4 years ago. I would say an hamster. But it depends about the gerbil/hamster so there is no fact its an opinion.
What is like a rat a gerbil or hamster?
A Gerbil is more Rat Looking with a long tail, while the hamster has a short nub. Gerbils are also easier to handle for the most part. They are all 3 rodents.
Which is the fastest a hamster a gerbil or a mouse?
Out of those three, a mouse could probably cover more ground.
Can you introduce gerbil to a hamster?
It's not a good idea. Gerbils can live together in groups of several, if the cage is large enough. Hamsters, on the other hand, live very solitary lives and will fight with other hamsters when they become adults. I have never seen a hamster and a gerbil living together, and I can only imagine that the hamster will attack the gerbil if left alone with it for more than a couple hours.
Is the angora rabbit related to the hamster?
They are both mammals and that's about it. The lagomorph order to which rabbits belong is probably more closely related than most others, to the order of rodents within which are the hamsters.

What is the difference between a Hamster and a gerbil?
1. A gerbil has got a long tail and a hamster has a short stub. 2. A gerbil is a bit like a rat, but smaller, with a furry tail and a shorter snout. 3. Gerbils LOVE chewing and shredding up things, but hamsters don't as much. 4. Gerbils come from the desert. They don't pee very often because they don't drink much. 5. Gerbils are awake during the day. Hamsters are nocturnal. 6. Hamsters have more dark meat.A gerbil is much less a people critter. A gerbil also sleeps 4 hours, then is awake four hours. A hamster (notice the spelling, no p) is noternal. Plus, a gerbil chews everything, while a hamster doesn't. Therefore, a gerbil cannot be put into the plastic houses for ever, because they will find a way to eat it and escape.
What digs holes?
Rabbit,hamster,moles and many more animals dig holes.
Can hamsters and gerbil live int the same cage?
Gerbils should never be put together with Hampsters. They are from different environments and eat different foods. Dispite the fact that most foods are for 'both hampsters and gerbils' that is wrong. They have different nutritional requirements. Hampsters are VERY territorial and will end up with one of them dead or severely injured. Do not put a gerbil and a hampster in the same cage! No matter how docile the hampster and gerbil look. yup! they can get to be pretty good buddies too.The gerbil will love it and try to be friends, but the hamster will defend territory. The gerbil will most likely fight back and with the gerbil's long claws and teeth that never stop growing, I think the hamster will die. You guys all are stupid, Yes, Gerbils and Hamsters can live together if they're docile and nice to each other...I have a gerbil and a Russian dwarf hamster and they have NEVER once fought, and yes u can put them together...No! No, no, no! Anyone who has been able to do this has had extremely good luck -- and that's all it is. If it is a Syrian hamster, the gerbil will die. If a dwarf, the hamster will die.
