I used my VPN to connect as Canada, that made no difference. Well this is really weird! I connected as if I was in London and that worked!! Disconnect the VPN so I have a direct connection, and no joy! Wth!??
Turning off the ad-blocker made no difference (no ads were blocked, so no surprise there).

Willow is my nickname but I've used it longer in my life than my real name now. 🙂

Regarding grapes, quite a lot of people on here give their gerbils grapes and they've all lived to tell the tale so they are not poisonous for gerbils. Unfortunately there are a few sites that have wrongly included gerbils on the list.
Grape vines are perfect to use so if you have access to lots of them that will be a huge money saver as they aren't so cheap to buy.
You'll have to show us updated pics of your set up once you've managed to get a few more natural items in there.

Oh my gosh! So many replies! I cant believe it:) For your suggestion Mark, i will think about adding a bigger digging area. And the plastic tubes go from the main area to the burrowing area where they make tunnels. The cage lid (ikea detolf) is wood cut in to pieces then screwed together. Plus to secure it more we adding white glue in addition to the screws. Next we painted it black to make it match the end of the cage. After that me and my dad added i think it was 1 cm mesh to the lid. Then on the ends of one piece of the lid i added hinges. I repeated this 2 time because i made 2 lids to access each part. (me and my dad made the cage) And for you Tanzanyte i have considered using coark logs but i don't really know where to get then in canada. Im am currently using timothy hay but it is quite expensive but i think its a really great idea to freeze it to get all the germs gone. Also there are alot of grape vines at my cottage that i could possibly use for them but i heard that grapes are poisonous to gerbils. Is this true i wonder? Plus to what Yeti218 thank you for the breeding information but that is a bit to fare away for me. Although i will be sure to the look at the hay coverd tube a bit more. And finally for willowfae I CANT BELIEVE THAT THERE IS ACTUALLY A GERBIL OWNER NOT TO FAR AWAY FROM ME! Is your name willow or is that just a fun username? Anyways thanks guys! Megan You can get cork logs from petland, and sometimes petsmart. Check the reptile section. You can also buy them online, especially if you look up reptile supply websites. And I wasnt suggesting you adopt Albertan gerbils, just telling you what I know of the gerbil community out here (its sparse). Markpd if you are seriously curious in that tube just google "all living things alfalfa-covered tunnel hideout" |
