11/04 We have adopted twin boy gerbils! Jamies' is named Fredrick and Amber named hers Chompy. You cant have more than one gerbil in the same cage unless they are from the same litter. Our mom cant tell the two brothers apart but we can. They are up all day and all night. Chompy has to have a constant supply of chew toys as thats all he does is chew stuff up. Of course with so many felines prowling near the connecting cages, we cant let them chew their way out. That would be horrible! Our mom tried getting pics of them as we havent attempted to pick them up yet. They like to jump and would hate to lose them in the house. They just wouldnt stay still for these pics. Constantly on the go but fun to watch. They even tried eating our moms camera. We will put better pics here once we can get them. These are after about 100 trys.
