Question

How much would everything needed for a gerbil cost?

Answer 1

i had a couple of them and they usually don't cost more than 50 to 60 $

Answer 2

basically the same cost as a hamster, just make sure u get gerbil food.

Answer 3

It depends on what you get, where you get it, etc. Please keep in mind that gerbils are social animals, and should be kept in same s*x pairs.

Here's what I got when I first got my gerbils:

10 gallon tank

tank topper

water bottle

food bowl

bag of food

bag of timothy hay

aspen shavings

wheel

wooden hut

wooden sticks

chinchilla

sand bath dish

plastic ball

*I might be forgetting a few things.

The total came to about $100, and I think that includes the cost of my two gerbils.

If you'd like more information on gerbils, feel free to e-mail me. I'd be glad to help answer any questions you have.

Answer 4

Cage(if you get large plastic bin):12$

here is a site for how to make the bin cage:http://www.geocities.com/calhamassoc/Fea...

hide out:8$

food:5$

water bottle:4$

Bedding:10$

extras:20$(treats,wheel,wood toys)

Gerbil:8$

Hope all this helps

total: $46.00 - $55.00

Also you may want to get 2 female gerbils because they are social, having a bin cage creates twice the room for less that the price of a regular critter trail cage.
