OH DEAR. I THOUGHT MY GERBIL WAS A MALE UNTIL SHE GAVE BIRTH. BUT TO MY
SURPRISE ONE DAY I FOUND BLOOD ON HER PAWS. THE BABY DIED. I'M NOT SURE IF MY
GERBIL (THE MOTHER) KILLED THE BABY. I HAVE HEARD THAT WHEN A GERBIL GIVES
BIRTH YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SEPERATE THEM FROM THEIR FATHER. CAUSE IF NOT HE'LL
KILL THEM. BUT NOW MY GERBIL GAVE BIRTH AGAIN BUT SHE DOESN'T TREAT
IT LIKE HER BABY. SHE BITES IT AND THROWS IT ACROOS HER CAGE. IS IT POSSIBLE
SHE DOES THIS CAUSE MY SMELL IS ON THE BABY? BECAUSE I PICKED IT UP AFTER I
SAW HOW SHE TREATED HER BABY. SURPRISINGLY THE FATHER DOES NOT TREAT THE BABY
WRONG. HELP I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. THANKS FOR YOUR LISTENING AND HELP.
