 Are these safe to feed to gerbils? I know someone who has a pair, and feeds them this. I thought somewhere it was bad to feed gerbils foods like raisins. Will they be alright if they ate cranberries? I'm concerned for my friend's gerbils now...

Same, gerbiluv! They're in Gerri Gerbil and I occasionally feed mine a fresh raisin, too! Just checked the okay food list on the gerbil FAQ - raisins are fine in small amounts. But cranberries were not on either list (good or bad foods) so I can't answer that. |

Well... I hope its not bad. I hope someone pops in here with information on these berries. i wouldn't think it's bad. they can have any other berry right? ...do cranberries have seeds? if they do i'd remove those and just give the rest of it... which could get sloppy x] |

Cranberries are fine. Just not too many, as they are sweet! I'd use to give mine dried cranberries when they were ill/pregnant/young.

Ah, okay! I thought they might be bad due to they're a bit bitter. I eat cranberries like candy, so I was a bit worried for my friend's gerbils, and if it was okay for gerbils to eat. Thanks for letting us know  We wanna be safe and sure! |
