HI everyone.
As most of you know I have been having a real hard time finding homes for
al my gerbil babies. So I have just given up.....No not the pet store, but
I'm keeping all of them. As part of my birthday present I am getting a new
10 gallon tank, lid and some other stuff. But I already seperated the Father
from the mother and children with the intention of pairing him up with a male
from the litter. Now The time has come when I have to pair them up. He is 5
weeks old! Most of you recomend the split cage method which I am all fine
with, but others say that if you add a youngster with an older gerbil it
works out without any special introductions. Now I need the advice of you
guys. What should I do? Should I just change the bedding and plop the lil
guy into the cage at the same time I plop the big guy in so that they will
each think that they are in the other's territory? or should I do that but
just add split cage? I really need your help guys. Thanks a lot
