Today sure is a crappy day for me.
I found Blazer my 2 year old mottled male dead in his tank.
Blazer has always been healthy and active, trully if anyways was going to go at a young age I would have thought his skinny/sickly looking brother.
I was playing with Blazer last night, he was his chipper self.
Today, i find him dead.
He seemed to come out of the nest and then just died, his back legs were together, his front ones apart, teeth showing, tail nice and curved, and what i thought was strange is a little poop half showing from his little gerbil bum. Is that a sign for anything?
I just want to know if there is a reason for his death. He is a pet store gerbil, most likely inbred (him & his brother are not very big), but I've owned 3 other pet store bred gerbils and they lived to at least 3.
