Tana's post about food reminds me to pass this along: PetSmart.com has a $10 off any $20 order deal -- I just received my 35 pounds of Nutriphase Hamster & Gerbil Formula today, for a grand total of $15.88 including shipping. Not a bad deal at all. Would have cost about $42 plus tax at my local PetSmart store. What I don't need immediately will be frozen for later use... if I can find some other place for all that pesky human food. :-) Just go to http://www.petsmart.com , order what you want (doesn't have to be gerbil food, just has to be at least $20 worth of products), and enter PSC402 as your coupon code when you check out (that's a zero, not a letter "O"). As a side note, unless you're feeding older gerbils, Nutriphase Hamster & Gerbil Formula needs a little more fat... you might think about ordering some Nutriphase Rat & Mouse Formula and mixing it in; or adding a few more sunflower seeds. See my nutrition page (updated with more new products recently) at http://netxp.com/rick/gerbils/nutrition.shtml for details.
