Thanks for the explaination

akachester, what if the gerbils fell?

abang brother, try playing with yours..
then you will know.. huhu..

I'm waiting until the babies are fully grown. Then i can play. The more the merrier.

They know how to jump so chances of getting hurt is low. My sumos tank dare to jump from table. So no point putting them on table.

They won't fall. Trust me. They are curious but would not be stupid enough to jump or go too near the edge that can cause them to fall off.

But after some time when they get used to it, you will find out that they will "try" to jump down. Once they had been down successfully once, they tend to do that again and again next time. LOL...

By that moment, you will need to find another table to put them. LOL...

wah, why now like not much ppl active in here one....

Thanks for the explaination.

My baby gerbils are all furry and can walk, climb, run!

yalor why arh? year of the rat wor!!! come come i'm hoping my gerbils will bring me luck and prosperity! lol!

oh that's great to hear. =)

lol very busy these days... dying..

after all the discussion with babymoli and test test out. we suspect the ikea rack is not good for gerbils. ppl with that. please check if your gerbil chew on them.

Just dropping by to say, Hi Foo! Hi gerbil lovers!

Give your gerbils a squeeze for me!


KP

Yup. The rack's paint might be toxic to gerbils. I suspect both my boys that died at young age were due to chewing the rack & got poisoned. After I removed the rack from the tank, my remain boys gain back their weight & look healthy at the moment. So people with the rack please do check on your gerbils.

really??
nasib baik i already sent the rack to my house..
now i just use either drift wood or DIY rack..

The children are these big:



Can separate them ady?

woah, nice pups u have there....
keep us update about it.

Thanks! Can they be separated by now?

The mommy gerbil just escape from the tank. Imagine how many sweat i sweat catching her.

Very very cute pups there abang brother. DEH are specially cute when they are small

guess i had told you 2 months only can seperate, feed more nutrition food for them. mum is lossing her nutrition.

Oh ya. I forget about that. What type of nutrition? Fruits or veges? Ya, i do see the mommy is getting slimmer.

gerbil don't do well in fresh, hope you can always remember the basic since you are breeding them.

go get some liquid multivitamin, get some animal milk, also some dog or cat kibbles and also the organic vege powder is always a good one.. she will need more protien.

cos since u didn't seperate the male once the female give birth, guess she may hv 2nd liter 30 days later, u better build up her body soon.
