Which is the best food for Gerbils?

Hi Everyone,

We acquired two gerbils (Holly and Molly) last week and I am wondering what is the best food to feed them on, at the moment they are on pets@home food that came in the starter kit, and any fresh food that they could have a munch on.

Thanks

Re: Which is the best food for Gerbils?

Gerri Gerbil is said to be the best complete food mix you can get for gerbils. I use it and it's fantastic! No sunflower seeds in it so you can just buy them separately and give them as treats. Great if your gerbil is a little podgy.
