Im Getting 2 Gerbils whats the price?

Question

I am going to get two female gerbils what is the price per gerbil from Petsmart. And if i am gone for about 5 days will the two be fine interacting with each other and getting fed by my parents?

Answer 1

In canada's petsmart it's about 3 $ without taxes.

Answer 2

i have 3 gerbils and they r $10 each. But the price might have changed so go 2 petsmart.com or some pet store like meijer

Answer 3

I think the price is around $10 each. They should be fine interacting with each other while you're gone, and I don't think they would care who feeds them, as long as they get fed!

Good LUck with you're gerbils! : )

Answer 4

I think mine were around $10 each...I don't remember quite but that sounds right.  I got two as well and they are great!

Answer 5

Gerbils, no matter the s*x, are about 7-12 dollars each, depending on where you live, etc.  

They should be fine while you're gone, but yeah, make sure someone always checks the food and water.  You never know when they'll tip their water bottle over (if not secured properly) or bugs will get in the cage.  Just make sure this isn't an every week kind of disappearance.  They need interaction from their owners or else they'll get sour and mean.  Then no one will want to look after them for you.

I would recommend you getting the gerbils after your five day thing because you really need to handle them every day for a couple weeks from the day you get them.  That's the best way to get them tame and used to you.  Five days without anyone really bothering them and they might just decide they don't want anyone to bother them at all and go nuts when you stick your hand in their cage later.
