Welcome! again LOL.... Being a gerbil nut is perfectly fine, we all know how addicting it is.... I have 21 gerbils in my home right now, 16 of them are mine. I've kept gerbils since the late 90's. My oldest gerbil lived to be four, my cousin had a male who lived to be 6! My oldest right now is two and a half, his name is Chevy. What colours are you gerbils? Where do you show them? I've only ever done online photo shows b/c there are no live ones anywhere near me. My Pied Black girl named Audi came in second place in pied class in the AGS Virtual SHow last year

I have mainly mongolians. I have agoutis, blacks, white bellied creams, argentes, slates, burmese, honeys, nutmegs, most colours really. I show in National Gerbil Society shows like Cardiff, Reading and Southsea.

I noticed sapphire recently - seems to be a new color that is showing up more, true?
I don't have any DEH's; the only ones I had I rescued and were not young, and they passed away some time ago, Romulus and Remus, two brothers. I have several whites, and a couple blacks, and others.

When I get some more space (move out of this bachelorette pad), I'm going to look for something larger, where I'm not breaking my lease agreement in keeping small animals. It's probably irresposible of me to have 5 hamsters in here as it is, but I have had hamsters here for about 4 years now and no one has ever noticed or complained. When I get a larger place, (hopefully next year, after graduation), I am thinking I will get a pair of gerbils. It seems though, that gerbils aren't very popular in Victoria! I dont' see them too often in the pet stores, but I'm sure if I inquire, there are breeders around. Of course, there's always the mainland and there's always SARS BC
