Just making VERY sure, but, a gerbil will be ok with this, right?

No idea, I got mine for two rats. But they love it and they weren't kidding when they said it's chew-proof.

Yes, gerbils will be fine. I have two gerbils and two fish tanks with this on top. They cannot get out or chew through it.

Yes, we have two Gerbils using this item and they love it! This item was not easy to put together, but once it is together, you are fine. Our Gerbils keep knocking the large ramp down, and I am working on securing the ramp so it is permanant. My daughter loves this because she gets to see her pets more than when they are hiding in the shavings!

if your question is WOULD gerbils try to eat this? The answer is yes. I think they try to *chew* it, actually. So far, my gerbils are okay with it.

It says for hamsters and gerbils so I think it would be okay to feed hamsters.

I don't see why it shouldn't be ok, but to be sure ask your local reptile store or veterinarian

It should be if they can reach inside it for their food. My Bantams were small when I got them and they had no problems.

I would not use this for gerbils at all... I purchased this for my daughter 8 months ago, and the gerbils very easily eat through the plastic. we have had 6 escapes since purchase resulting in the death of 2 of our 3 gerbils. This product is best for Hamsters.

No. this is best for tiny mice or gerbils. I can't believe people use this for hamsters.

As for gerbils, they don't require sand baths in the way that chinchillas do (aka twice a week) but a monthly or bimonthly (twice a month) sand bath will do them good. They cannot use chinchilla dust however because it is too fine. For them a more granular sand like this one would be just fine.

Our gerbils out grew it quickly, but there are two of them. It is not that big.

I feed it to my gerbils, but I imagine they'd be about the same as hamsters. I mixed just a little in with their other food, and gradually increased the amount of the Oxbow. At first they didn't seem to like it, but I noticed it gradually got eaten. One I ran out of the old stuff, all they got was the Oxbow, and when they got hungry enough, they ate it. They've been getting this over about a year now, and gobble it right up! I don't think any of them will starve to death when there's food available.

You need to be quite sure that you have the room for two of these. Guinea pigs do share their equipment quite well so you would probably beall right getting one.

This is just right for a Golden Hamster. Habitrail makes another for dwarfs and I can't quite think of the name, but you can identify it because the tubing is significantly narrower. Hammy should enjoy this home. :)

i think i will be good for hamsters. because it just fixed for my one guinea pig

Probably so if it is pretty fat but if a hamster can collapse its body like a mouse, maybe not. It is a very large cage. It does well for our rabbit.

Sorry, I know this is a late answer and probably not helpful to you - but I thought I'd put it out there for other people. This would NOT be good for gerbils as their main home since they will destroy the plastic in no time by chewing. Also, they need to be able to dig in at least 8-12 inches of bedding or they tend to 'dig' in an empty corner until their noses bleed. A glass aquarium with a secure lid and tons of bedding works great! I did get this as a play cage for my gerbil though with lots of tubes - I would use it for that : ) Also for gerbils these make a good place for a sand bath cause he can go in there and roll and the sand won't get all over the place Sorry, I know this is a late answer and probably not helpful to you - but I thought I'd put it out there for other people.

No, it will be fine... this play unit is a little small for my African Grey and will also be a little big for a cockateil.

It would be fine for a single gecko. If you are going to have multiple I would use a larger habitat.
