There is no set amount of time that gerbils need to chew but they do have to have chew toys available all the time otherwise there teeth will grow too much. They should have a variety of chew toys. You can buy shop chew toys made out of wood usually or you can use things around the house like paper (not newspaper) loo roll tubes and toilet paper. You can also use branches of wood like fruit tree branches but nothing with thrones. Make sure there is always something to chew on because gerbils can totally chew up a loo roll within hours.
