I've got my gerbils for over a year now, 5 males and they have never fight
with eachother, but now sinds two day they constantly fight with
eachtother thill they die!
1 is already dead, and 1 is injured, what should i do, and why are they
fighting!?!?!?!
[This is just a quick answer. The experts will give you additional
advice.]
You must separate the males who are fighting or the war can continue.
Deaths also can continue.
Something has changed their stable adult relationship. Be sure they
aren't competing for water or food. Is their home big enough for 4
adults? Is there plenty of bedding and shelter places?
Perhaps you will be able to reintroduce them by split cage method, and
perhaps not. Right now beside me is a year-old male who was being bullied
in the bachelor tank, and I'm not sure what I'll do for him permanently.
At least he isn't hurt and he seems to like my close company.
Experts?? More help for Ferdy?
good luck ...
