From: "Janet Morrow" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I want to be sure that the mix is healthy! I need to know how to make my own mix, that will meet the gerbils nutritional needs. If any of you make good feed that your gerbils are thriving on please let me know. **** Just one more nickel on an important question. See FAQ # 4.1. It includes a diet that can be assembled at a feed store. Later FAQs deal with lactating mothers. http://www.nanetworks.net/~mhaines/gerbil.html#section4.1 If you need URL to Rick Stidham's webpages about gerbil nutrition, lemme know. I assume you've read NGS Index about feeding. Note that online petstores sell gerbil feeds delivered anywhere, at prices competitive with a local petstore if you had one. A quick protein + fat supplement for nursing moms is dry cat food. (I dunno about puppy food.) Mine liked a little powdered dry milk sprinkled on their feed also.
