Gerbils

No it's not ok because like humans, it will not go through their digestive system very well.

Yes. gerbils die very stiff and won't open their eyes. It doesn't take long for gerbils to die; they die faster when it is sickness or blleding that they are dying from

NO NO NO it will get extreemly sick will stop eating and drinking then die ................ if i were u i woudent try it.

If it has just suddenly gone dark red it is probably nothing. This happened to me 3 times in six months, once when I sneezed, once when I slipped on a step and once for no apparent reason. I had my eyes checked and my blood pressure, they were both fine and I have had no trouble in 6 years now.

Something heavy that cannot be easily tipped over. An aquarium would be good it you had something weighing it down on the top to make sure the lid stays in place.

Actually people with pica (disorder) chew and EAT all sorts of non food items. Here's a case of a woman that actually eats and is "addicted" to toilet paper!

well. if they all died then there's nothing you can do about it. take them out of the cage though. sorry to hear about your litter. it happens. it could be that the litter was really weak.

Yup, they do. It's the same for all other rodents. They really don't care whether it's a rat or gerbil.

You can give them different chew toys for them to chew on and it should keep the teeth at a decent length.

its because its a boy.

I don't think gerbils can get neutered; if they can, a vet would do the trick. A simpler plan would be separating the males and females so your poor gerbil doesn't get drowsy.

Gerbils make great pets! As long as you house them with adequate space, food and water, appropriate bedding, and a gerbil companion, your gerbil will be happy. Gerbils are relatively easy to tame, since they bite much less than a hamster, and have a natural curiosity that gives them a love to explore. They are desert animals and use their water more efficiently, which means they produce less waste and their tank smells far less. They come in an array of colors and personalities, too! They make great first pets for children, classrooms, or even just for you! Remember, though, that if you are planning on getting one, it is always best to look for a breeder in your area, since gerbils purchased from a breeder tend to be healthier and easier tamed than those purchased from a pet store.

Hope this helps!

Cats are predators and inclined towards killing small animals. A cat will almost certainly try to kill a gerbil.

Most likley it is a foot diseas... how much hair is it loosing?

If a alot take it to the vet!

Once a month is fine. Gerbils are desert creatures so produce very little urine and waste compared to other rodents.

They might have overgrown teeth. If their teeth are too long, they will prevent the gerbil from eating. The vet can file down their teeth to make them smaller. Also, they may not like the food. Try mixing different brands of food until they find a food they like. Still, I would take them to the vet, as them not eating is pretty serious.

yes they do but they are so small that you can barley see them but all they do with them is drink anyway lol

Rotastak Main Housing units, fairground fun, space command, creepy castle, pink palace are fine for gerbils as they are a big size.

A group of gerbils is called a Kyro, it could also be called a horde!

A gerbil on it's own is a species, that of rodent. All animals of the same major family classifacation (EX rodent) can mate. However this can be dangerous.

They shred it with their teeth to make bedding material. Gerbils also require some harder material to chew on, such as hardwood or commercially available chew sticks, so that their teeth don't become overgrown.

Though Respidoral is often considered for the treatment of ADHD, it is a heavy drug, that is it is an extremely potent anti-psychotic usually prescribed for people with schizophrenia, psychosis and severe autism. It does work in some cases, but it causes anxiety, often depression, and you typically gain about 20 kilograms (45 pounds) of weight. This is in addition to the side effects often experienced when people use drugs like haloperidol, such as akathisia, dry mouth, muscle-stiffness, muscle-cramping, restlessness, tremors, Rabbit syndrome and in severe cases of accidental over-prescription, drug-induced coma.

Basically, not worth the risk.

If you have ADHD, and are considering a course of medications, the best thing I can recommend is good diet and regular healthy exercise, followed by a low-dosage course of Ritalin or atomoxetin.

Male gerbils can be neutered, but it is not recomended. Female gerbils should not be spayed. In general male gerbils should not be neutered unless there is a good reason for it.
