Ok well now that I know my emails are getting thru - thank you everyone for replying - I have a question.  I recently seperated one of our Momma gerbils with her remaining baby (a little girl) into a new cage.  The other 3 babies all died, I'm still not sure how or why but I think it could of been Respitory infection as I found the Momma had it after Ihad moved her - she had no signs before this.  Anyway I obtained some antibiotic for the Momma and some kitty milk for the baby and had been administering this daily for a week.  The baby thrived and the Momma is healthy now too, my problem is, before this when I would walk into the room the gerbils would come up to the glass to see what was going on etc.  Now whenever I walk in they dive for cover, will they be like this forever now?  Its quite sad, I want them to be the social little animals they once were.
Thanks for you time
