We currently have a pair of male gerbils available for $29.99 each. They're way too stinkin' cute if you ask us! These two boys are very adventurous and so so curious of their surroundings! Our little tan coloured friend is a bit more brave and quite handleable already! Just because they are currently a pair does not mean they cannot be sold separately if you already have some gerbil friends at home. We just ask that you please keep in mind that these guys are very social and do require one or more friends of their own kind to cohabitate with.
Here is a "spark notes" summary and some fun facts about these adorable fellas!
-On average, they live 2-4 years
-They enjoy having deep bedding in their tank enclosure so they can create tunnels and burrow easily! (at least 6-8 inches)
-Gerbils need a sand bath daily to keep their skin and fur in good condition.
- Unlike hamsters, gerbils are happiest in pairs, so adopt an already bonded pair if you can.
-Gerbils were originally known as 'desert rats'. Their whole body, including their tail, is covered in fur, this is to keep them from getting sun burnt in the hot deserts.
-Be sure to provide lots of materials for climbing and enrichment, such as thick pieces of wood, stable large rocks, ladders, ramps, ropes, and platforms.
-They are quite curious, playful, and active animals, but they are still considered relatively quiet pets.They are not nocturnal, though they are sometimes active at night and might take naps during the day. They are considered to be "diurnal" meaning they are active during the daytime and inactive or have periods of rest during at night!
-Lots of toys that are safe for chewing should ALWAYS be available to help wear down gerbils' continuously growing teeth.
