no a gerbil pup needs its mothers milk to survive when it is young
no. when the pups are born the non pregnant gerbil will kill the pups and most likely attemp or actually kill the mother too. but if the mother dies in birth the other gerbil may adopt the pups. take it from someone who knows. I disagree, if two females are raised together for a long period of time, they can be kept together if one has pups. I have raised gerbils a long time and usually the 2 females will raise the pups together.
Absolutely, they are a great source of vitamins and minerals for the gerbil!
give it another week so the mom can be by her puppies maybe even longer
Pups should be weaned at 6 to 8 weeks old to leave their mother.
Pita bread would be OK for a gerbil. As long as it is unsweetened and unsalted.
as long as its not poisonous and not hard
OK, and the question is ...
You will get mixed answers for this question. The previous answer was "no", but I disagree. Hampster food and gerbil food are almost identical and are often sold as the same thing. It is ok, but try to keep it to gerbil food.
If you play with it daily, yes it should be fine :-)
Yes, it is pretty painful for a mother dog to nurse all the pups at once. just imagine 6 little puppies with sharp little teeth chewing on your nipples!
you should probably talk your parent and see if it is ok but im sure the store would take your money even if you are young. all they want is your money
Ok, If your talking about dog pups, then YES!!!! Totally! If it's about seals, Pretty much. If your talking about wolves, Yep!
