What Snacks Can Gerbils Have?

Gerbils are used to a scant diet, so it is important to give them preferably natural and low-sugar snacks. Gerbils are also prone to obesity and diabetes, which together means we have to be extra careful with sugary snacks. Fortunately, we can help with this! In this category we have only selected snacks that are suitable for Gerbils.

How Often Can You Give Gerbils a Snack?

That depends on the snack. Natural snacks made from herbs , seeds and natural protein sources can be given daily. It is true that your Gerbil will eat less of its own food as soon as it gets more snacks, but if the snacks have added value and are a supplement to the diet, then that is no problem at all. We have also paid attention to this when selecting snacks.

Can snacks be used as enrichment for Gerbils!

Yes for sure! Gerbils are very active animals. It's good to keep them busy and that works fine with tasty snacks that are given in a challenging way. For example, hide the snacks under the bedding so that the Gerbils have to actively search for them. In this way, snacking is combined with challenge and exercise!

TIP! Do you have a cork tunnel ? Then place something tasty, for example dried mealworms , in the cracks of the cork tunnel and let the animals find them themselves and pick them out. Super fun to see how they are doing!

Can You Tame Gerbils With Snacks?

Gerbils, like all other rodents and rabbits, are quite feed-driven, which means that feed and snacks have a very positive stimulus on the Gerbils. We can use this very well to tame the animals, but it is important not to overfeed them, of course. One or two contact moments a day where treats are given to the animals can contribute significantly to the taming process of Gerbils. The animals learn in this way that the hands are not scary at all, but give treats. In this way, the hand and the person attached to it are perceived positively. Fortunately, Gerbils are very curious animals, so they quickly come to you, reward this with a treat and the bond will quickly become strong!
