Question

How to introduce a female gerbil to a male one. im currently trying the split cage method?

Answer 1

You need to allow them to have time together. Set them on your table, in a fish tank or in a play pen for small pets for about 20 minutes to see how well they get along. If they hit it off right away give them more time. If not separate them and try again later in the day. You may have to do this a few times before they get use to each other. When you do this make sure you clean the area before placing them together. If they smell their sent that may put them into a territorial mood and they wont want to share their space.  Good luck

Answer 3

It takes about a week for the split cage method and some gerbil just don't get on,

If they gerbil run after one and other that is the start of mating, but if that are run very fast than that the start of a fight,

if you are asking this question you look as if you have not done reseach on breeder or if you have not a lot,

there are lot more to breeding than putting to gerbils together!

his will give your more info on breeder and the split cage
