Juniori is so beautiful! He has so nice type, that I would like to have him Do you plan to have pups from him soon? I would be interested in one

Other gerbils are also hansom!

It would be interesting to see their terrariums also.

[Susanna]

Thank you!

I like his type too, I found him from Finnish pet shop in last spring. He is very big, weight is about 130 grams. His breeder is a trusty pet shop worker (I know her, she breed gerbils "in a small-scale" to pet shop). I planned one smoke litter for spring: Juniori - Joplaya's Va Va Voom and second smoke litter for the next summer is Juniori - Joplaya's Apple Galette. Juniori has been successful in shows, but unfortunately he has suffered on "Sore Nose". Fortunately his nose is improved now.

AlbinoPurets: I breed smoke and dove gerbils, but I don't have a breeder name. Maybe I have it some day...
Pinto: I have had gerbils from 2004 and my first gerbil litter was born 2009. Now I have about 25 gerbils.

What is their main food?

[DessaMerisiga]

Good luck with them!

[Susanna]

Thank you! Their food is Rapunzel GerbiiliMix (silly name, doesn't mean anything...) More information about nutrition is there in finnish; http://koti.mbnet.fi/rapunzel/index.html > Gerbiilit, hamsterit, rotat, hiiret, oravat > Rapunzel GerbiiliMix. In my opinion it's best gerbilfood, I recommend! No preservatives or coloring ingredients, it's has planned for gerbils and it's cheap. As for is I know, for at least Lustrum gerbil breeder has transported it to Estonia. Also I can transport it sometimes to Estonia.

I'm using the same food and yes, Lustrum breeder helps me sometime to get it

How often and how to you serv baby food? I have used those only for old gerbils.

[Susanna]

I serv baby foods almost every day for baby gerbils and usually I serv it some piece of cardboard.
