It's not necessarily bad if your gerbils sleep in different places in their cage, as gerbils are naturally social animals and may choose to rest separately at times. However, if they consistently avoid each other or show signs of stress or aggression, it could indicate compatibility issues. Monitoring their behavior and ensuring they have enough space and resources can help maintain a healthy environment. If concerns arise, consulting a veterinarian or an animal behaviorist may be beneficial.

Will two boy gerbils fight together in a cage?
two boy gerbils should not fight, aslong as they knew each other form since they were pups. if not, use the split cage method and you should be fine. if you leave some old bedding in the cage when you clean it out gerbils are less likely to fight. girl gerbils are more dominent so boys are less likely to fight then girls. always keep a pair of gerbils, or they will get depressed. some gerbils do like to live alone, but this is uncommon.
Do girl gerbils do well in the same cage?
For the most part, yes, they do. Gerbils, like other animals, have individual personalities, however. Some gerbils will not get along with other gerbils, regardless of gender.
