Hey everyone, i thought someone might be able to help me with this little problem I ave here...I ahve 2 young male gerbils and i learned that you can't have one of those metal wheels cuz they can kill, amutate body parts and what not. SO i said hey, how bout a hamster ball. Nope, ruins their backs cuz they can't bend their backs like hamster do. So how do I give my gerbils exercise?
I thought of getting one of those playpens for rabbits, a small 3 foot in diameter one, but i dont exactly have a backyard to put that in cuz i live in an apt. Then I saw these little hamster harnesses and I was just wondering if I could use one of those one gerbs too! They look so cute!
