Can more than one gerbil be housed together?
- Yes, males are more happier in groups, and can be in pairs as well. Females do well in pairs than group, as they tends to de-clan one of the girls while boys won't do that.
What is their housing like, I have researched and found out that bin cages...
Rats are really great pets!
As much as I love my dog, hammies and GPs, my rats are really the one that jumps on to me daily now.
Remember, rats need socialization so it would be good that you take them out at least for 1-2 hour(s) per day.
I love to just give them the tickle in their belly...
Rabbits are usually aloof to you for the first few days/weeks. Try putting the freshes in a bowl inside the cage and see if he'd take any. Count the number of carrot/greens etc you give. A nibble is also a good start.
You can go Cold turkey for the pellets I guess, as long as hay is there.
Give him treats in front of the Piggie. When you pat the pigs and he sniffs, and didnt do anything, give him treats. He'll start to associate the pigs as a good cause. You'll give him treats for being nice to them :)
It depends on the breed, GR is especially calm with other pets, but you'll have to depend on his character on this. Some are ok and some are not. Mine is a Mini Schnauzer and he gets along with my pigs, rats, hammies.
I just got 2 Albino rats yesterday myself as well.
I use a very tall Bird cage for them and they loves it. No chances of breaking out since the gaps are narrow :)
Nono, I don't mind the pellets or not.
What I mean is one of the ingredients. I'll ask my friend and check back with you guys later.
For hamsters I still think feeding a good mix with Human Graded Organic and freshes is good. We feed sprouts too.
