Gerbil Book

I got this book from the library and I read part of it. I have two gerbils. Their names are Acorn and Daisy. I had read another book about gerbils that said that they sleep at night but this book said they like to stay up around midnight. This book is right. When my gerbils were in my room they ran on their wheels and kept me up at about that time. I liked a picture of gerbils in tubes in this book. It showed a gerbil jumping into a tube. I learned that you are supposed to let your gerbils run around in a room about three times a week. I hadn't been doing that. Now we let them loose in the bathroom sometimes and on the table in the basement. I also liked the pictures of different colors of gerbils. I didn't know there were black and white spotted gerbils until I read this.

Pretty Good Book

I am a new owner of Gerbils and this is the first book I got to get more information on the adorable little animal. It's a pretty good book with lot of great information and pictures.

Good reference

I keep and breed gerbils for snake food, but the breeders are also my pets. This book is an excellent guide to keeping the gerbils happy and healthy. I learned what and what not to feed, why woods and plastics are not good in the cage unless intended as a chew toy [plastic is bad], and how to handle them. Great guide, and I recommend it to all potential gerbil owners!

Helpful and Accurate information was given

This book is a must if you plan on keeping gerbils!

Superb!

This book is exactly what my sister and I have been looking for. We read other books, but they weren't specific on how to care for gerbils, just the same-old-same-old clean it often routine. We love the book; it made our gerbil caring so much easier and fun!!!
