Gerbils mucas is red. People often mistake it for blood. Chances are the gerbil's nose is just irritated, but if it is prolonged it could be caused by an allergy from the bedding or nesting materials used. If this is so switch beddings and see what works. Also make sure all nesting material is unfragranced or dyes because they are known to irritate gerbils.

My two gerbil brothers are fighting and one's feet are bleeding what do i do and is the gerbil that is bleeding going to live?

i haven't had experience with gerbils bleeding-- but with dogs and bleeding feet- you just put a little corn starch on it and it will be fine! the gerbil depends on how much it is bleeding, if only a little it will be OK (as long as you stop the bleeding) i would just coax them away from each other with a little fruit or nut most likely- the gerbil will live =) no worries

You should take your gerbil to the vets ASAP. Your gerbil might be in pain, and if it has been bleeding for a while, they may die from blood loss. If you don't take your gerbil to the vets, they might die within 2-3 days...

How do you stop a baby gerbils tail from bleeding?

What I did was have a tough glove (or gardening glove) and hold the FRIGHTENED gerbil. Note:A frightened gerbil bites. Grab a napkin,toilet paper, or anything available like that and use it to cover up the wound. Maybe do something like watch TV or something while paying attention to your gerbil. Hold it there for a good 15 to 30 min and he should be fine. Be careful. If not attended to fast enough, the Gerbil could bleed to death. - GerbilExpert
