I know it's a year later, but i've found (if it's possible for you) gerbils LOVE fruit tree branches when they're fresh off the tree and the insides are still green. I did some research and apparently it tastes quite sweet to them. :)
And I also used to own hamsters and the Perfecto Habitat Tank with the vents is mainly for hamsters, as it helps to vent the smell of pee out of the cage (gross.) Gerbils on the other hand arent stinky :)
The tank is a Perfecto Habitat tank and is approved by a hamster society, so the vent may be for hamsters primarily. I have other gerbils in a fish tank with a cage attached at the top, obviously no vent in the fish tank, lol.
If you hold them, and they're not in the mood to be held, they might nibble you a little, but that doesnt draw blood. If you get inbetween 2 fighting gerbils, or if a gerbil feals REALLY threatened, it can hang in your finger and draw blood.
UGH I want this type of tank with the shelves so badly, but where I live (USA) they don't sell them! Whenever I see them online, they're always in another currency :-(
Your Gerbilarium is great, im getting 3 gerbils this weekend, and i was wondering where did you get your gerbilarium from? Also what have you put down at the bottom for them to dig in?
I bought a sheet of wire mesh from B&Q (garden dpt) and cut it into a five space strip. Place the water spout through the mesh and bend the mesh up to hold it. Bend the mesh over the tank with the bottle inside. Get some garden wire or string and thread it through the mesh to hold the top of the bottle to keep it steady.
Where did you get the cage from

Have you given your gerbils sticks? xD
I sound retarded... Lol

It's a good question. Gerbils need sticks to chew on as their teeth are growing continually.

Pets at Home for £50 or Ebay. Look for Perfecto Habitat, which is the name of these tanks.
