Jirds?

[nate]

Can somebody point me in the direction of some info on jirds? I was looking into them, I think it was Shaw's jird that was like a larger mongolian gerbil, I'm thinking about possibly getting some, not sure until I find out more about them.

Edit:

Just to update, I have done some research on the net and I have decided that I want to own a pair of male Shaw's jirds. I am now looking for breeders, but I haven't had much luck yet. If anyone knows where I can get some, please tell me.

The website of the National Gerbil Society (UK) has much information on many species: www.gerbils.co.uk/.

I see you are in London, So if you send Julian Barker of the NGS an email [e-mail] he should be able to help you source a breeder, there are quite a few breeders in the UK.

It might be worth you putting an advert in the wanteds section of this forum as quite a few uk breeders see it p205.ezboard.com/bsmallandfurriesglobal

Hope that Helps
