Gerbils Should not be Kept Alone
Gerbils are most happy in a group of siblings so it is best to buy at least 3 or more together up front. These know each other from a young age on and normally get along well. Gerbils care for each other, clean each other and most of all, all sleep closely together for warmth and security.
Never add a stranger (new gerbil) to an established group or two stranger gerbils to each other. Gerbis will attack and seriously injure or even kill the new gerbil. Gerbils need to go through a socialization process before putting new members together. Ask your pet shop or experienced gerbil owners how to socialize gerbils with each other. The process also requires a lot of patience and time.
