Well, gerbils were never meant as feeders anyway. Rats and mice still more economical and easy to breed.

Anyway, about the gender issue, if you are experienced you can tell the gender of the baby gerbils even as early as day 2 or 3, coz boys and girls have some difference at the genetials. Best to sex them as early as possible la, once they are furred it may be a bit hard. Some males develop more slowly than others somemore, and after they get sold to new owner as a female only they realise its a male.
*
Gerbils are expensive feeders.... lol, I also won't feed my gerbils to my snake even if so hungry loh. I'll get mice instead... gerbils too precious.

Ai, remember Reeko? He only showed his balls around the age of 5 months... that is crazy... I kept thinking he was a female till one day thought wanted to breed "her" but saw balls poking out slowly.... Luckily I didn't sell him hahahah... first time I didn't see the sex properly.

QUOTE(tikusniaga @ Mar 6 2007, 10:12 AM)
YES, it can never be feeders. Who on earth will want to feed gerbils to snakes? 1 gerbil = 15 mice. Why not just feed mice.
*
Yah... imagine, 1 gerbil the size is like a juvi rat.... rat summore cheaper.... better lah.

oh...i'm really really sorry...i didnt mean that....what i want to say..person like u and hun,love the pets..and not mengejar keuntungan like others person out there eg petshop owner..sorry aa..
*
We all do not untung at all.... I kira... my gerbils and hamsters' food 1 month is RM100 alone.... bedding about RM21 a month and hay around RM10 a month.... crazy rite? But each time sell, those Rm30- Rm40 goes back to the animals.... it barely covers cost. We breed here is for hobby lah... not really for business. Also the quality and colour is different from petshops. People can always go to Petaling Street's petshop and look at the gerbils there.... the gerbils are 100% scared of human and touching, will jump or kick away... also the stock there got a possibility of inbred and have hairless tails. Makan is only Kuaci and Sengkuang.... not that good rite?

Black eyed pups, can see 1 is DEH... 2 possible to be Nutmeg, 1 maybe is a black or dark agouti and another is agouti... wuuu...

I saw it in Pets Wonderland lur .. going for RM68 if am not mistaken . got black gerbils there ..got one black mama nursing her pupps ..baby black and one baby with golden fur eh .
*
Wahhh... Rm68? Naik harga already... they used to be RM48....

Ohhh.... if black mama, means they inbreed their stock.... coz all their stock come from a holland supplier and you know lah, supplier never seperate the sex... so petshop take, dump all in 1 tank... so the black mother gerbil should be from their old stock.

Come to my house lah, got new babies heheheh...

Yah... even the hamsters also, the main stock all from Holland but then they never seperate the males and females so all interbreed.... then when got babies, instead of saying locally bred, they will still tell you imported from Holland hahhh....

Anyway, I am still unsure about the red eyed pup's colour.... now got fuzz... got a bit of grey but then the face got some orange fuzz... argente? Hahahah... not sure... let's wait.

my gerbil food got some insect....i tink called moth...forgot already. so can still use it? or juz put in freezer/under sun (which better) to kill them?
*
Well... firstly you sun it.... Coz the heat will chase away the ones alive... Then to prevent them from coming back, keep it in the freezer for a week or so...

how do u make holes on ur tank to hang the bottle?? I wanna diy the tank for my hamsters too.  notworthy.gif

You can use a hot metal rod or nail or soldering iron.... for metal rod and nail, you must heat up using fire till it glows bright red to melt the plastic.... soldering iron is easier since it always stays hot by itself coz electrical. No need to reheat it like metal rod or nail...
