Hi everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm new to this list, and
also pretty new to gerbils themselves. I had a pair years ago when I was
a little kid. I hope everyone will tolerate questions from a novice like
me. OK, here goes: I've been thinking a lot lately of getting gerbils
again, I remember them as being wonderful little critters. I have a
slight problem though, when I was a kid I also had several not-so-nice
hamsters and was bitten a few too many times. Now I sort of have a
left-over childhood fear, I guess you could call it, of being bitten. I
know gerbils are usually very friendly and not quick to bite, but I was
wondering if anyone had any tips to help me get over this ridiculous
nervousness. Thanks from the newbie!
