Heheh... nice pictures! Did you rename to a name that you like?

Anyway, the reddish nose.... it can happen a bit. Bloody nose can be seen when the gerbil constantly cleans it's face, the nose will be very red stained.... now that is really serious. Sometimes now and then, you would find a bit of red stain, if it is a bit, nothing to worry....

What your bro said about the gerbils?

Wah, great job.... so you use the skeleton of a ready made wheel and replace the bars with mesh only? HAahah... awaiting for your next update.

Pixie, is so like my pied boy Latte.... today found him RIP liao.... sigh.... miss him. No idea why but his tank mates buried him like human bury family...

Not very old.... 1.7 years old only.... No sickness and never fight.... so this is unsure unless I do autopsy but I found him too late to dissect him loh.... just bury him only.

Edited: not 2.7 years, 1.7 years....

Yah... not Pixie, mine was Latte....

Aiyah, typo error, is not 2.7, it's 1.7 years.... bleh.... Summer is almost 3 years now and she is the only oldie from my 1st 3 gerbils.... Bandit gone, Bubbles due to facial tumour... Summer is still lively, so that's good.

Bubble's kid.... one of her 1st.... coz the 1st few I never sell, all I keep loh.... after him, all came out spotted... never nice pied loh.... I also didn't breed him coz didn't wanna separate him from his male tank....

Hahaah.... yah loh... so KK sure 2 years liao mah.... 2005 to 2006 1 year.... 2006 to 2007 another year....

Yah loh... Foamy's sibling.... all my gerbils.... so sayang sayang.... now see see can continue my DEH line or not, left 1 pair breeding DEH only. Junior, sp black is helping me breed out nice sp blacks.... Nescafe retired, Summer retired, Peaches retired, Boing retired... then I got females that never breed, just keep only like Benee, Ivory(PEW), the Twins.... Junnie, Jannie and Karlie is kept with their mom, Boing at my friend's shop.... And I got many many males.... hahah.... coz they make good tank mates than females for me.

LOL... really confusing ... but I got so many dates to remember, damn cham....

Thanks for caring you guys....

Hahaha... I remember it as May or June.... thanks for the date, April.

Pity coz I lost alot of my gerbil data when my PC reformatted.... I wasn't at home, and I haven't updated my saved datas then my dad go shop to reformat.... sob sob... even my college assignments and photos all vanish.... very cham coz alot of things gone. Lesson learned, now got external HD to backup.

You can do it on your own, so far I did it twice before.... but you can only come to conclusions with what you see with your eyes..... once I got a rat with bloated tummy, another had a very black liver... dunno what happen lah.

Wah... then how you retrieve back? For me, almost all my 2005 works and files all gone.... now my PC only got a few 2004 and 2005 files.... a big part gone.... now alot of 2006 and 2007 files.

HAhah... then must find time to write lah.

Anyway, today just clean half or my tanks, so tired... tomorrow continue with the other half heheheh....

Then I go itchy itchy, bought 2 different pets again.....

1 Dumpy Tree Frog
4 Chinese fire bellied newts.... but 1 escaped so now left 3... sigh...

Yer, I'm not gonna do that hahah... but they are very cute in a way.... but so black, can't see them if on my drift wood hahhah. LIke black black gerbil but the newts have red speckled bellies.

If they regenerate, dunno nice looking or not coz in geckos, when the tail regenerate, quite ugly...

Hahah... your gerbils are driving you crazy, softly heheheh

Hehehe... I don't have my newt pics, but here is a sample:

Yah, water cicak ahhahaha....... wonder got water gerbil one day or not hehehehe.

What to do? They only think of profit, minimal care is what they give. Jerboas... a pity.... most Jerboas are not captive bred, some are wild caught or born to wild parents, then people take them as pets.... I don't think they make good pets like Mongolian gerbils.

Schimmel, yah, this is one of the odd and rare colours to get here.... Well, we lack the gene e(f).... f means fading gene.... another name for this colour is Orange Mold coz the pattern is like mold hahahah.

Gerbils like to chew mah, what to do? Hahahah.... if we got nice wood chews, they would love it but now the wood chews also expensive.

I don't dare give branches coz also dunno toxic or not.... I know rambutan tree is toxic to small animals.... as in the branches lah, fruit is fine.

Last time I bought something by Kaytee brand I think.... can't remember, they were wooden chews made of branches, then inside got some nutrient gel.... Rm13 for 6 I think, 1 week chew 1 branch.... but then stop selling... so never bought others anymore.
