Is there a safe way to keep a pair of opposite s*x gerbils together?

Question

i may get gerbil and i was wandering if i could have a pair of opposite s*x gerbils together without making little gerbils. is there a way???

Answer 1

It is instinctual for males and females to breed continually if they are together. It is very unlikely that you will be able to get a male and a female and not end up with hundreds of babies.

There is nothing wrong with getting a same s*x pair. There are no big differences between the sexes(temperament wise), so there is no reason to get one of each s*x.

Answer 2

they wont breed unless they are in love(read in in the aga magazine**gerbil magazine)mine never had pups, i had them for 2 yrs, every since the age of 7 weeks, cross your fingers, maybe they wont want kids with each other!

Answer 3

neuter (sry cant spell it! lol) and spay them! ♥ ♥

Answer 4

Without nutering or spaying? No.

Answer 5

nuture them??

Answer 6

Safe yes if they live together before you got them, A good idea NO no no,

If you get a opposite s*x pair get the mans man hood remove (i guy so a hate say it but it can be a great idea)

If you don't get any done that you be over run with gerbil not good for you not good for the gerbils.

hope this help

Answer 7

If you neuter a male, possibly. However, neutering is a bit risky on such a small animal. I don't know whether it'd be worth it or not. I'd think most vets wouldn't neuter a gerbil. It's just best to get a same s*x pair.
