Hi,

it seems we have a lot of gerbil trouble lately.
After two surgeries (one scent-gland tumor, one tumor in the
mouth) we've also had two gerbils with inner ear infections.
And I just now discovered a third one with a slightly tilted
head.
Are inner ear infections contagious? What exactly causes them?
Is there something we should or shouldn't be doing?

Can genetics be involved?
We do seem to have a big percentage of growths in the ear in our
gerbil population.
Over half of our 24 gerbils have them, and they are basically all
from one set of parents.

Any advice would be appreciated.
