Here come the neverending questions again. Or at least, they'll end once
I stop being so cautious ;)
For my new start on breeding, I'm using carefresh bedding. Is this the
right stuff to use? I hear it's good, which is better, Carefresh or
Aspen?
They are both good. I find Carefresh will last longer between changes.
Would it hurt or be bad for a gerbil if I kept it on Ornacycline for a
long time after I start the new clan? I want to make sure there are no
lingering disease, and if so I want the correct medication to
fight/prevent it. Especially for all the gerbils first litters. Is it
okay to keep them on it for a while?
It would be better to use it after the first sign of illness, otherwise
a drug resistant illness might occur.
Are Saltine crackers okay for gerbils as an occasional treat? All I have
are the salty ones, and they don't seem to mind it. I rarely give it to
them, but sometimes I will. Is this alright?
Saltine crackers are fine. you can rub off some of the salt.
Thanks in advance,
Paige
The GML is for all Gerbil Questions. If you have questions ask.
Sometimes, answers are on web pages or the Gerbil FAQ but new people or
those whom are young are not sure where to look. Also, Answers to
questions sometimes lead to other questions and answers.
