Gerbils don't smell wor... must put at car porch? you can always put it maybe kitchen area or some other room.... well, gerbils do sweat (by drooling) and I think many have witnessed it during the gathering at McD at Ikano area.... was so hot, all my gerbils drool till wet.... even the hamsters also....

Slowly introduce.... did you do the wash tank and clean bedding method? Means no toys, hide or water bottle first... just a newly washed and clean tank with woodshavings and hay only.

If that fails... then do the split cage method.

Foo ah... the wire mesh that sold at those hardware shops.... I read ah, if the animals chew on the mesh, can get metal poisoning coz it's galvanised wire.... so maybe that purple cage is better.

I'll be going to Petaling Street tomorrow.... they got many of those cages heheheh.... I think I'll get a few.

I read from those rat websites coz I want to build a cage mah.... then they say the mesh we have mostly is dangerous for animals that chew mesh... other animals like bird or chicken or reptiles won't get such poisoning coz they don't chew the mesh loh...

I read the best kind is coated mesh... but I think coated mesh only available in overseas and not here. So maybe the best is we buy those small cages... coz the cages are mostly coated cages.

Maybe can paint... use those non-toxic paint maybe can I think....

Yah.... they still can chew through... hmmm.... kinda hard rite to find the best wire mesh around hahahah.... someone told me stainless steel but to order a custom made cage I think will cost a lot also.

Custom made memang they will do wan... no matter how small the job, as long you can pay them it is fine.

The wire mesh is to make split cages.... view Foo's post to look at it.

Welcome back Lilac... and congrats on your new litter!!!

Hmmm... I got this info ah.... maybe Penang got red and yellow fox... well, maybe 1 day must go there to check some petshops hahahah...

Hahah... maybe one day lah... not now heheheh... one day must make a roadtrip to Penang... since already 8 years I have not been to Penang liao heheheh.....

Hahaha... yesterday Rena and vikingw2k came over, they got poisoned by my fat tail hahahah.... my fat tail become super model LOL...

Then yesterday 2 gerbils went to new homes... sob... gonna miss them. Now my Crystal, Crystee, Crystim and Cyrtsler have good homes already.... happy for them heheheh....

Golden DEH boys also will have a new home with someone here heheheh....

Foo

I did research lah...the wire mesh... if we use ah, must wash with water and vinegar to get rid of the chemicals.... coz if straight away buy and make, can be toxic. Also, the wire mesh becomes toxic when the animal pees on it, it will rust, absorb the pee and keep bacteria also. So if you buy the mesh, wash with water and vinegar and sun it, then if you paint a non-toxic paint ah... can already. Is safe to use.

Hahah... yah loh... they are now very fast and active. Lovely boys.

Hhahaa... not wash with just vinegar lah... but diluted one... dunno lah, I just read it. So now maybe I will DIY a cage for my rats also now.... after read that, can save money hahahah....

Hahaha... all also cannot wait for their gerbils hehehehe.... Baby gerbils are just so darn cute... like little piggies.... now got 6 waiting for new homes... well, maybe I'll keep 1 or 2 heheheh....

Hahaha.. I got no pigs... just my gerbil pups look like piggies coz so cute and fat hahhah....
