Hello everyone  I had a great day! Though not a lot of gerbils (about 25 including jerds), the few who were there kept me nearby and their owners must have thought I was a gerbilaholic as I kept lurking around and looking, taking pictures and my man was ever so patient with me, bless him  The Persian jerds were very lovely! I had the chance for a close encounter as you will see in the pictures. Fat tailed too were adorable though not much chance of a touchy feely, i felt privileged to see them though. Hundreds of bunnies, quite a few of hare sized ones ... HUGE actually... and guinea pigs. Some rats, hamsters, a little amount of mice, even SunshineGerbils' type of bearded dragons (i think). I saw chinchillas (gosh, their fur is ever so soft!!!), and some turtles or god knows what they are called. Hardly any bedding and food for gerbils, In fact non, but everything about and for bunnies and guineas. I did manage to get a free bag of paper pellets bedding and some apple branches for 20 pence. My recommendations are, it is a great day out instead of sitting front of the telly. If you are into rabbits and guineas, this is your place to go go  not a lot of smaller rodents, though hamsters seemed to hit the spot on the small species section. If you ever think about showing your gerbils, they all looked very stressed to me, but perked up later on, so It Is a BIG DEMAND on your loved one, in my opinion. An owner told me that a hotel charged her £20 per animal per night, and she had around 5-7 gerbils! What a rip off! But honestly, seeing those lovely gerbils made me miss my clan  I shall post the pictures once I get home

Thanks for posting these Eszter  I also am not too sure about the fat tailed tails! The jirds are beautiful creatures. The guinea pigs as always made me laugh! Nice to see you in the photos too  .............I do think the Royal Clan could have beaten the gerbils in a beauty contest though!
