My babies are beginning to grow visible fur and they are 8 days old.
no, not until they have fur and can open their eyes. otherwise the mom might smell your sent and not won't take care of her babies anymore.
no gerbils don't have feathers, they have fur
Baby gerbils can be sold about a week after the next litter comes, at around day 35.
THey are mammals and they do shed their fur, but you won't notice it.
That is actually a sent gland. Don;t worry your gerbils fine. :)
Yes they do after all they are mamals but then again dolphins are mamals.
You shouldn't do that because fungus could start to grow on its fur.
Not unless the parents are.
My baby gerbils have already started eating sunflower seeds and drinking water and they are 25 days old.
No, gerbils are definitely social animals, but they are territorial. Gerbils get depressed if alone, and may even become aggressive. It is best to keep gerbils in same-sex pairs, this way they have one buddy, and there is no chance of declanning, which can happen with groups of gerbils mroe than two.
No My gerbil Neve just the fur grows back in
many animals especially gerbils enjoy company of their own kind and if you don't want baby gerbils the same sex keeps that from happening.
