Beautiful! Erin, that's all I can say, spectacular! You're just a natural, you were born to have animals!
I have a couple questions! :)
1) Are there any brands that you would recommend? (bedding, toys, hides, etc.)
2) What type of bedding do you use?
3) At 4:00 what is the wooden structure? (the one that looks like kind of like steps)
That's all!! Your channel has really helped me through the years, so I would like to thank you for that! :)
Hi there,
Thank you for your comment! It is nice to hear that the channel has been helpful to you :)
In general, I find that small animals will love the natural & free items as much as those from the pet store. For instance, wood pieces, branches, hanging ropes, plant pots, rocks, pipes etc seem to be very popular. I used low dust horse bedding (which comes in bales) mixed with hay to help hold the structure of their burrows. I believe the wooden structure is from the brand Trixie if I remember correctly. Hope that helps :)
Congrats on 100k!! Xx
Excited to watch! Love your videos ❤
Cool, i would love to get gerbils they are so small but are so interesting can’t wait
I was considering getting gerbils, and this video really helped me gage a good setup for them. Also I know I’m late but congratulations on 100k, you really deserve it 💞💞
Thank you so much! Great that the video helped in some way
Me too

I have a hamster to but now I wish I got a gerbil! They seem so exciting and east to tame..
so cute, I love your gerbils 🥰
Wow this video was great and gave lots of idea for my gerbils
Finally Early, love these types of videos, find them really educational and fun 💛💛
Fun to see how excited the Gerbils get, I think they love their new set up
Woah gerbils move so fast!
Oh wow! That’s amazing! I don’t have any gerbils but that’s good to know! Love your vids! xx
Your videos are so helpful
I made my parents watch your vids and they let me get two gerbils and I wouldn't manage to handle them without your help thank you so much xx
It’s so fun learning how to enrich a pet animal’s habitat
Love your videos xx
My wish is to come back, after I pass on, as a gerbil and live in those habitats. One big playground. Good job Erin😀
Your animals are so spoiled! You're such a great pet mom 😊
Erin can you do an updated gerbil care Visio please
?

Love, love, love this channel! I hope to be getting gerbils soon so this channel is so helpful!! Xx
Same
Awh i miss my 2 gerbils now ;( they both died last year ♥️
How old were they?!
@thecasualtrollingpuma lmao thx
Amazing setups! Lucky Fur Babies!!
Great video. I love the set ups x
The thumbnail is very adorable
Hi! I love your gerbil setup! What brand/kind of sand do you use? It is so hard to find the right kind of sand that is not too dusty.
Your gerbils are so adorable! Your so creative with your critter habitats ❤️
I would love to have a setup like this for my gerbils but I don’t have the space in my room unfortunately. All your pets are so lucky to have a great owner like you and all their habitats are amazing. I was wondering where you buy some of the wooden and log toys as I can’t seem to find many in pet stores. Thank you, I love your videos, they really inspire me x
Omg in the past 20 minutes three animal channels have posted.yayyy
Hi ilysm you have really inspired me to choose a career with animals
Hi I have some questions-
Where did you get all of your like.. wood stuff?
2- what do you use as their cage
3- and last one I promise- what do you use as a.. uh.. bedding?
Love your videos
What bedding do you use? I’m thinking of changing my gerbils bedding, any non dusty suggestions?
Thanks for the ideas my gerbles are like the kings of my house along side with the guinea pigs🤣😂🤣the fish are chill though
I love making things out to scratch instead of buying things 💕
My gerbils live in the detolf and love itttt
Mine live in a Detolf too!
@Forrest Mcgee ikea detolf's are cabinets originally built and designed for displaying items in your house, like a tall and long glass cabinet. Rodent owners got the idea to flip it on it's side without one side of glass, as a very long but somewhat narrow enclosure for their animals to live in. It doesn't come with a lid of course, so you can DIY it. (usually mesh lids are used)
Love your videos. What type of bedding do you use for the gerbils?
How often do you clean your gerbils out? Just wondering
Hi erin plz can u tell me wot vage u think is best the livingworld or the rode pet bevause i need to get a bigger cage for my hammys and like them both so unsure and also where do i get the rodepet cage from has have only seen the livingworld thank you 💖💕💗
Oml you are so good at this. I have a QU my 3 gerbils have been eating the sand in the sand bath do u know if that ok.?
I love your vids💕💕
A little bit to sand is alright, but please take out the sand bath if they carry on too much. It may give them stomach pains. x
@@coyoteteethh1943 thx
Were did u get those cages and are they expensive
They are sold online on the rodipet website and are very expensive ( over £100 ) xx
@@chlomaryy that's not very expensive for a gerbil tank, :)
you could try the ikea detolf it's $60
@@feyre3955 40£
What cage/habitat is that called for the gerbils? I need one for mine
Erin, shouldn't the group that is not separated have the bottle?
I always watch your videos when I want to upgrade my gerbil cage
How do you think about having more than 2 gerbils together? Is it better to buy males or females if buying more than 2?
Nederlandse Politiek I have 3 male gerbils and they get along well together. I have read that female gerbils tend to fight more than males.
What sand do you use? X
amazing video love u lots xx
Where do you get your gerbiles habitats?
Do u think that the ikea billy cage okY for 2 gerbils xx
Hello Erin,
My name is Marius I got 3 gerbils from donations the first is a female albino and the Last 2 are 2 bronwn males that came toghether.
My question is can I bond the 3 or that can not be done ? I don't want to give up on any of them. What should I do and how can I bond them?
where do you get your materials?
What cage is this and what is the size x
Hi I know your hamster is no longer in your room but did they make your room smell X
How often do you clean the cages?
Love this video, what sand do u use for your gerbils?
childrens play sand or chinchilla sand
What sand, sand bath tub, and wheels do you use?
What kind of sand do you use for them
What are these cages called again ?
At 7:25 I died so cute!!
They are so adorable. My gerbil lost her companion and I am still looking for another female companion.
Im going to get some gerbils in January, does anyone have any tips?
Hello! I have two gerbils and they are such a joy! Definitely get more than one gerbil, they are very social animals. also, make sure they have a cage that allows them to burrow because they love burrowing. They chew a lot so it’s a good idea to get them plenty of chew toys. They should also have a wheel in their cage and a sand bath once a week. I hope this helped! They are pretty low maintenance but still require a lot of care and love :)
Very nicely Done 😘💋💋
Where do you buy all the wood and things you put in I can never find any
Which size is your laola cage ?
I wish I can buy that tank thing... I'm in America and it's literally impossible to get that here :(
Would you think of owning mice in the future? Or are they illegal in your area?
I love your gerbils there soooo cute 💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Do they sometimes bite because my two gerbils who are both female one of them (the smaller one) tail is a little bit bloody and there’s blood on cardboard them play fighting is the only way I think this could’ve happened or when I closed the lid them having their tails out but if that happened there tail would be ripped off they normally dig together I think it’ll be alright
Earlyyy!!!!
Such a good video👍
Please do an enrichment for hamsters. Luv you!❤️
Yess will do! :)
What are the gerbils habitats called 💕
is milo in the video?
Will you ever do a video about your college experience?
My gerbils love this video literally because I was playing it and I saw them staring at my phone 😁
Where did you get most of the wooden items? I have 2 gerbils.
Loved the video thank you x
Me and my daughter has two gerbils, and after 24hrs of cleaning and setting up the cage and everything they have trashed the place :P They never keep it the way YOU want to xD
I always say "As long as they're having fun!"
I might get some gerbils so I was wondering can I keep them in my hamsters old 50 gallon bin cage?
probably not because gerbils can chew through plastic super fast. a 40 gallon breeder tank would probably be good.
Animals Furever
Ok thanks
Even if I dont add any mesh along the sides?
I own gerbils but... what is with the cup of water? Is that their water supply? I've never heard of giving them a dish of water like that. That can spill and I heard it's really bad to get them wet
both dishes a water botttles are fine. dishes need to be changed every day. they give the gerbil a more natural way to drink water. if a little bit of water splashes on them they will be completely fine. it is very rare for them to actually become fully submerged in water.
I love gerbils, you seem so loving and caring :)
I love your channel I don’t have a gerbil or a hamster but I’m getting one
amo seu canal
Love this video x
Hi Erin
I am getting gerbil
Is there any advice you could give?
Anyones advice would be appreciated
Thanks
@Cat Evens thanks
Do you have gerbils?
@Cat Evens cool
How many
Would some of this stuff work for a hamster?
Yup
She's a beautiful human. She really cares for her pets and makes sure their happy. That's not very common
Lindaaaa 💚💚💚
Halo erin... Im from indonesia.. I love animal too..
Could you link the cage you use for your gerbils?
www.rodipet.co.uk/cages-runs/
Can I use carefresh in the burrowing area if I ever get gerbils? Does it hold tunnels well enough?
Of course :) but it may get a little pricey - you can mix it with hay to hold the tunnels better :)
Erin's Ark Okay, Thanks a lot ;) The price doesn’t really matter to me as long as the animals gets the best life possible.
I’m getting gerbils
Hey! In a couple of months I might be getting a pair or trio of gerbils and I cannot find a good deal on a 30 or 40 gallon glass tank. Anyone have any reccomendations? Thanks. x
I really want a hamster. My mom said no even when I told her I’d pay for him and the supplies and take care of it!! I don’t have any pets and I’ve measured an area of my room where a 40 gallon breeder tank would fit! Please help me ASAP!!!
Edit: I AM GETTING GERBILS!!! I’m so excited!
Good luck with your new pets! They make wonderful pets 😊 and I know that you will be a great gerbil owner! 👍😎😊
Also the blue wheel I have what size is it?? Because I have it for my Syrian is it big enough
i think about 28cm :) yes the large one is suitable for a Syrian ham
Erin's Ark thank you:)
Does anyone have a link to these cages.
Erin replied earlier to similar comment; heres the link she gave x. www.rodipet.co.uk/cages-runs/
Thank you x
I want a big cage like this for my Gerbils.
What are the cages called? Dont know how to spell what you said lol
The smaller one www.rodipet.co.uk/cages-runs/laola-nagarium-mdf-100x50x50-cm.html
Nice but the bedding is still way too low
@J.S. Agreed, although it's deep enough on one side of the partitions, it doesn't seem to go wide enough.
Watching this makes me so sad for the two gerbils I'm gonna get in two days because I don't have the space or the money to do anything like your animal habitats😖😖
Then don't get some
@TheCluelessBell a 55 gallon can easily be 200 dollars
@thecasualtrollingpuma Yes, I have a fifteen gallon tank for two, and most of they're toys are sticks, cardboard and wooden arches and tunnels. I make most of this myself, and they love they're home.
I agree with you, thecasualtrollingpuma
Yuo and yuor animals so cute yuo best girl 😊😍
