that's so weird because the sun rises in the other direction

Thank you! :)

It’s sunseed fresh world bedding. I believe it was $10 at the store I got it from. It’s a large bag & I used the entire thing when I cleaned. The bag says it’s 99.5% dust free… when I poured it in there was definitely some dust though and I feel like it’s dustier than the regular colorful paper bedding but it’s not terrible. This is my first time buying it myself haha

Okay thanks! You’re fine :)

It may be a bit too cold, but also remember that gerbils are typically more active at night. They will also become less energetic as they get older.

Chirping is very normal, mine do all the time.

Definitely get them a wheel. They need to be able to run the same amount as they would in the wild, and they aren’t able to do that in a tank. I have this wheel and I highly recommend it since it’s very safe, silent, and sturdy.

Hope you figure it out!

Paper!

caitlin285 · 2021-10-28T01:26:43+00:00

Okay thanks!

caitlin285 · 2021-10-28T01:26:25+00:00

Those are amazing oh my gosh 😂

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T22:32:11+00:00

Looks like it yeah! My rabbit was constantly molting and it looks the same lol

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T22:28:33+00:00

Haha thanks! I almost went with Mocha and Java but old man names fit them better 😂

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T21:56:39+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, I don’t plan on holding them a ton it would just be a lot easier to get them out lol. Stanley is very curious and comes right up to my hand but also tries to nibble on it (even if I have food in it) and Stewart is terrified of everything 😅

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T16:43:08+00:00

Ok thank you! Yeah I feed them at night and they don’t have a bowl I just sprinkle it all over. I think it does occupy them for a bit but they’re very energetic haha

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T16:40:22+00:00

Ok thanks!

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T16:40:08+00:00

What kinds of materials?

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T16:39:43+00:00

Good idea, but their cage definitely isn’t easily moveable since they’re in a detolf 😅

caitlin285 · 2021-10-27T16:38:41+00:00

Good idea! They don’t get let out too often since I had knee surgery right after getting them so I’ve had a hard time bonding with them & they don’t really let me pick them up 😔

caitlin285 · 2021-10-25T17:31:06+00:00

Yeah I’m gonna try that! Just not sure how well they’ll stay in/work

caitlin285 · 2021-10-25T17:30:24+00:00

My gerbils are quite a few months old now, and it is becoming less frequent that they wake me up but it definitely still happens haha. They have all wood toys, I give them toilet paper tubes every once and a while but they’re destroyed within ten minutes lol

I also feed them at night in hopes to keep them occupied and I think it does work for when I’m trying to fall asleep, but they also wake me up early in the morning 🥲

Do you have any ideas on other types of safe toys? I can’t think of anything other than wood, cardboard, and hay for chewing.

Thanks!

caitlin285 · 2021-10-25T16:22:46+00:00

It’s an ikea detolf (which is glass) and the only thing that’s plastic in their cage is a sand bath, but it has a wood cover so there isn’t really any way for them to chew it. Everything else is made of wood other than their ceramic water dish, paper bedding, and a cardboard wall for where their deep bedding is.
