If the toy came from another tank, the smell from the other gerbils might
have gotten on the female and the male did not like it. Always wash the toys
and even your hands after holding different paired Gerbils.

(from

cage

each
> their all their life do you think they wouldn't fight THAT much? Or do
you

> P.S Jason, I am very sorry about your poor poor baby gerbil {:(.
