Maybe he/she's bored, hungry, thirsty, or even lonely if it's companion has passed, been adopted or ran away. Gerbils can get depressed from being alone, so if you only have one gerbil, be prepared to spend a lot of time with it!
in the wild they live in the desert
It is dark, the gerbil wants to hibernate.
3 or so before Jacob comes, but she still kinda mopes then too...but not as much with Jacob!
Give 1 teaspoon of gerbil food per gerbil. If you have 2 put 2 teaspoons of food in their bowl. Hope this helped!
It is probably because it is dominant of its sister. If this gets much worse it might be an idea to separate them. My friends gerbil bit off its brothers tail... so... this is something you need to watch.
between 5 and 15 grams a day, it depends on the gerbil.watch how much they eat then go from there. if you are looking at buying a gerbil, so you want to know this for the price, assume 15grams a day, and it will probably be less. 15g = about a tablespoon
about 1 week or so. You might want to show your pet gerbil around the house once everyday so he/she can get used to its surroundings and eventually accept its new home.

Gerbils naturally dig around and burrow constantly. If the gerbil has a wire enclosure, then surely it will make a mess all around it. Cages that are better suited for gerbils so that they do not do this are aquarium setups or fully enclosed plastic cages, such as Habitrail Ovo.
Self Defence in the wild = When a predator got the gerbil the gerbil losses hair on tail and if needed the tail pops of so the predator will eat the tail and the gerbil will get a chance to run away ,its like with a leopard gecko
You need to take your gerbil to a vet who works with exotic animals so you can get the right antibiotic.
Then you should get another gerbil so it wont be lonely
yes they can but if you have any other pet keep them inside so the gerbil won't get eaten outside
