After about a week of separation, my baby gerbils (abut 5 months) tries to continuously bite and kill my father gerbil (about 1 yrs old) with no particular reason. They also try and bite their brother (who was separated too, and lives with the father). The father and male baby gerbil doesn't try and attack at all, and the mother is fine with both males. What's the problem? I want to stop the family feud...

5 months old is not a baby gerbil... They are adults and will breed with the father/brother if you them together!
Do you mean 5 week old gerbils?

Why are you trying to mix together gerbils that you have previously separated? I'm not sure what your intentions are here.
For starters, you really shouldn't ever mix together male and female gerbils unless you want them to breed, and if they're related, you certainly don't want that, so keep the mother away from her sons.
You also really shouldn't try to mix together groups of gerbils either, so 2 gerbils to 2 gerbils is also a bad idea.
So do tell us more about your gerbils and your plans and maybe we can help sort this out with you?
