Magnified Gerbil Hairs

[flora7suzy4ever]

For anyone interested, here's some pictures of a gerbil hair, magnified.Sorry they're not the best, it's kind of hard to take pictures through a microscope ( there is a black pointer in each picture thats not the gerbil hair) ibb.co/k1R6tc ibb.co/jrgjeH  ibb.co/nv1vmx   ibb.co/bSrCic  And here's a gerbil claw magnified: ibb.co/bYrHzH  ( I didn't pull it out just for this, I will add, It was an accident and I just kept the claw ) ibb.co/jaYrRx

What magnification power are those at? I've thought about picking up a second-hand 'scope partly to look at gerbil hairs.

There is one at 4 times, 10 times and 40 times. 40x  ibb.co/cYWEUH 10x ibb.co/nv1vmx 4x ibb.co/k1R6tc 4x Multiple hairs ibb.co/ftaDOc
Part of my hair next to a gerbil hair to show difference. Right my hair, left gerbil hair, center pointer: 10x ibb.co/cvzOOc

That's so cool! The gerbil's hair looks almost scaly next to yours. Are those the cuticles? (I take it gerbies don't use conditioner :T)

I suppose those are the cuticles
