Important Information on Breeding Gerbils
If you are in the process of breeding gerbils, it’s absolutely crucial to your success that you do not make any changes to the breeding environment. This means that the quietness in the atmosphere should be maintained, the tank should not be cleaned, moved, and nothing should be added to or removed from the tank. The male gerbil should also not be removed as he will help the female with the pups.


The reason why nothing should be changed is because the mother will likely do everything she can to get the tank the way that it used to be and in the process neglect the pups. While it is OK to check on the pups twice or thrice a day, usually the parents will fare just fine on their own. Occasionally a pup may become separated from the nest. In this case you can put it back but be sure your hands have been washed with a gentle, unscented soap to prevent putting any foreign smells on the pup. Visit animal clinic in Burbank to learn more on this.
