Male gerbils Gerbil Rodents for sale

7 Male gerbils Gerbil Rodents for sale

The gerbil, often simply called a 'gerbil' or sometimes nicknamed 'fat tailed gerbil' in pet circles, is a small rodent species originating from arid regions of Central Asia, including Mongolia. These creatures are known for their distinctive furry tails and compact bodies typically covered in soft fur. They have keen senses and agile movements, adapted to a desert environment with little moisture. In temperament, gerbils are friendly, social, and curious pets, making them very suitable for companionship in households across the United Kingdom. They thrive best when housed in well-ventilated cages that allow space to burrow and play, with regular exercise and a consistent diet to maintain their health. As pets, keywords like 'gerbils for sale', 'baby gerbils', and 'gerbil cage' are popular when looking to adopt or care for them. Overall, gerbils offer an engaging pet experience and are ideal for those looking to care for a small, manageable rodent with a lively personality.

FAQs

How much are gerbils for sale?

In the UK, the price of gerbils typically ranges from around £4 to £80 depending on the breed, source, and seller. Adoption fees usually fall between £4 and £40, pet stores often retail gerbils for about £16 to £32 each, and breeders may charge up to £80 for more exotic varieties. It is also recommended to budget for initial supplies and habitat set-up, which can bring the total cost to approximately £120 to £200.

Is it better to have one or two gerbils?

It is generally better to keep two gerbils rather than one, as they are social animals that thrive on companionship. Having a pair helps prevent loneliness and stress, allowing them to express natural behaviours. Keeping a single gerbil can lead to boredom and behavioural issues, so providing a friend is important for their mental and emotional well-being.

What is the average lifespan of a gerbil?

The average lifespan of a gerbil is typically between 3 and 5 years. This lifespan is longer than that of most hamsters, which usually live around 1 to 2 years. With proper care, nutrition, and a safe environment, gerbils can thrive during this time span as healthy and active pets.

What are better, hamsters or gerbils?

The choice between hamsters and gerbils depends on your preferences for pet behaviour and care. Gerbils generally live longer (3-5 years versus 1-2 years for hamsters), are more social and less likely to bite, and benefit from having a companion. Hamsters tend to be solitary, may bite more frequently, and have poorer eyesight which makes them more easily startled. Both require daily interaction and care, but gerbils offer longer companionship and sociability while hamsters suit owners preferring solitary pets.
