Whe I had Warrick and Jethro I had my friend over and I would break the yogurt chips (you know the ones that are for rabbits and larger rodents) up into 4ths or not let the gerbils take them from me...
my friend gave Warrick a full one.... he spun around in circles till he was dizzy trying to keep that treat from me and his cage mate. @_@

Gerbil are very small and sensitive animal. They enjoy all types of different nuts, seeds, berries, and other fruits and vegetables. You have to take care of their diet.

Why Do you give Cheerios to your gerbils? There is a lot of fat and sugar in that stuff and that's no good for gerbils. Give them nuts and seeds as treats, more natural stuff

Give them nuts and seeds as treats, more natural stuff Whereas I don't personally give my gerbils cheerios (tried it, none of them seemed to like them! ) Plenty of gerbil owners give their gerbils a few in their mix, even their staple diet. I don't think it is an issue.

Plain cheerios are fine for gerbils to eat.They arent likely to make your gerbil fat. Cheerios are part of my gerbils staple diet, and they always eat their cheerios. I actually think 1-2 cheerios a piece is a rather small amount to give, i think my gerbs probably eat 4-5 a day. ksgerbil, Moonstonegerbils is a breeder, so I don't think she would give them food in to their staple diet that would be too damaging to their health.. Just added this to explain what I meant about the above comment

Ah ok, over here (UK) they're pretty bland tasting to be honest with you Don't personally like them. But yeah, to stay on topic I don't think they are harmful at all, especially not in small amounts.
