How do you get your gerbil to dig?
If your gerbil is healthy, it should just dig by itself. Gerbils are natural diggers, as they make burrows to live in in the wild.
How do gerbils get their food?
If their in the wild, they hunt it. If they are owned by someone you give them food. In the wild gerbils dig up roots or forage for seeds. But if they are domestic/pets then you will need to give them food.
Can gerbils find food buried under 3 inches of bedding?

What does it mean when your gerbils nose is red?
It either means they have a cold or their nose is infected. You should take your gerbil to the vet if you think it's sick. Don't pick up gerbils if you have a cold.
Will you die if you put a gerbils head in your mouth?
If you have a healthy gerbil who lives in a clean cage/tank then you will not die if you put their head in your mouth. On the contrary it will be very unsanitary to do so considering they burrow/dig where they poop/urinate and clean themselves also gerbils are prone to mites.
Your gerbil kicks his sawdust out of his cage why is ts this?
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.
When I first got my gerbils they digged loads and now they don't what is weird I've had them for a year nearly. Why don't they dig anymore?
At first your gerbils were getting used to their surroundings so they dug more. Now they are used to it they dont need to. If you want them to dig you can put tunnels under the wood shavings to encourage them and change the things in their cage or mover things around so they are more curious and start to explore more.
What are the nesting habits of gerbils?
