At about 18 days, you can put her on your hand, if it brushes against you she is probably pregnant, if not she is dangerously fat-but it's more likely that she is pregnant :) Also the nipples will become more prominant
Usually, at around 20+ days she will go a kind of pear shape
Sometimes, not all the time, people say their gerbils go "lumpy" on the day before giving birth.
These are all signs, if yoru gerbil has any of these signs she is probably pregnant.
How do you convince your parents to let you breed gerbils when they don't know where to put them?
No one should breed gerbils unless they know what they're doing and have time, money, and plenty of space available. Remember, if you can't afford the vet, you can't afford the pet. You need to be able to take any or all of your pets to the vet if they need care and that can be expensive in addition to housing and feeding. So your parents are hopefully taking that into consideration as well.
Gerbils shouldn't be bred because they're cute or you want to see what it's like. They can have large litters that need to be monitored. The babies grow fast and in 5 weeks if you don't have good adoptive homes for them to go to then you need to provide one for them. That means separating the girls from the boys, putting no more than 2 gerbils in a 10 gallon tank, and buying new supplies for each tank including lids. All of it can be very expensive and very time consuming.
It's best to leave breeding to people who have many years of experience with gerbils and have the time and money to really look after them.
Fyyn Is The Most Koolio Person Ever Trever . you can say that again biatch
A person that has any respect for the one they love just doesn't dump you, but could ask for "head space." They may be confused about their feelings for you or, they may have a terrible time trying to figure out what they want themselves. HE IS NO LONGER YOUR BOYFRIEND. Feel free to date others. I would highly suggest going out with friends and if you meet another guy that treats you the way you should be treated and you care for him, never mind what your ex boyfriend thinks. When going through life you want someone that communicates their feelings well and if they are unhappy with you then they should spit it out, or, if they love you then they should tell you. It's apparent this guy doesn't know what he wants and is selfish enough to leave you all alone while he decides when and if he'll make his mind up. Get on with life hon! Marcy

What is the best way to train Trapinch?
Trapinch is a ground type and will keep that ground type all it's life. so what i'd try doing to evolve vibrava , because someone said that it gets easier with vibrava, is train it at New Mauvile city with the voltorbs and magnemites. keep some potions with and level it up to lvl 35.
What are the nesting habits of gerbils?
Hi! I used to have two gerbils (one died) and they like to sleep alot but they also like to eat, but not always if they are not hungry, they love to dig and they are very inquizative. But it depends because your gerbils personalitys might be different!
If a gerbil's hair is ruffled is he sick?
Not necessarily. It can be a small sign, but if he is himself, then he's probably fine. Gerbils have very silky coats which can get greasy very easily. Here are some possible solutions/causes:
- lack of minerals (my gerbils coats were very ruffled and have improved with their mineral block). Play on their hobbies- they love to chew so provide him with a mineral block big enough to chew.
- Lack of proper bedding. Certain types of bedding can make their hair ruffled. If you give them a sand pit, this should help immensley (thats how they clean themselves in the wild).
- make sure your hands arent dirty or greasy when you hold him.
- Sometimes its just their type of fur (my gerbils have very silky and greasy fur, others may have coarse fur).
But watch him carefully and he doesnt seem to have any other problems, then hes probably okay. If you notice something strange, you should perhaps take him to the vet.

No it's actually good for them, but you have to buy the hay, because normal hay might have parisites in them.
Will a bunny get stunned if you take a picture of it with the flash?
A bunny will not generally get stunned if you take a picture of it with a flash. They may get scared and freeze momentarily, but they are not stunned in the the classic sense.
Boy gerbils actually do have nipples but less visible then female and seem to be less in count having a possible four.
Where can you get a gerbil leash?
i realy dont think they sell leashes for gerbils and you diffenenty dont want to tiy a string to your gerbil but if you still want to keep looking for a leash you can ask a vet or someone who works at a pet store.
Will male gerbils an dfemale gerbils fight?
no but they will have babies and when they do the father will try to eat them so if you do have babies take the father away when they are being born. male gerbils fight with each other.
Can a gerbil live in a hamster cage Not a habitrail though?
Hamster cages are a good choice for a gerbil. If it has a metal pan it is a very good choice. Habitrails are plastic. Gerbils love to chew so you might see a hole in the side of it. That's what happend to mine. Hope this helps!!
What toys keep gerbils teeth short?
Paper and cardboard that you have at home is good as well as fruit tree branches like apple tree branches. You can also but chew toilets from shops. These are usually made of wood or rope and there are best to keep gerbils teeth short.
