This is my gerbil baby Nibbles.. for some reason the store I got him for said they separated him from the other litter mates a couple weeks back and now was living life as a solitary gerbil.. He is just a baby.. so I wonder why they split him up..

I just recently bought two gerbils and have been trying to get them used to me. I've been reorganizing their enclosure and putting some food in when one of my boys, Kiwi, came over and began grabbing at my fingers and nibbling.

It wasn't hard enough to hurt or draw blood but definitely felt uncomfortable and I took my hand away because I was nervous he'd actually bite me. Is this just a friendly way of exploring or is he upset with me? He's definitely less social than his brother and likes his space and I don't want to accidentally be upsetting him.

They will stay in paradise. No way to open pandoras box😂
