cool rodent activity idea

I tried it, and the gerbils loved it!!  It took them a while, but when they finally got inside to the carrots I put in, they were happy :)

Enjoy! :)

Day 16

Here are some quick pics from today...

Jenna and Alfie in their split cage

*awww...*

*so cute*

"Where's mommy!"

"Oh, there she is...

... and here's daddy too!"

*sweet*

*adorable* =)

running around... practicing some acrobatics... =)

I really like this one... except for the shadow of daddy's tail...  =(

Hope you enjoyed!  Hopefully more tomorrow...! =)

Pictures...

The pups are 2 weeks and 1 day old today.

It's amazing how fast they grow! =)

But first...

'family huddle' #1-- Bonnie, Winnie, and Nellie... down there somewhere. =)

and family huddle #2!!!  Charlie, Chloey, and all the littles...

... and from a different view.  *awww*

"Woo hoo!  I got away... almost."

 They are soo crazy right now, because their eyes are almost open... and that's just the way they are.  Trying to get good pictures of them was pretty hard... but I tried!! =)

semi-calm

peeking out...

 Oh, and by the way, this one is the 'girl'... the one I thought was a girl, but is actually a boy... oh well. =)

Finally... sorta' still!

I love the way his legs are in this picture... =)

... and this one.

 The last two pictures may look like he is being squeezed to tightly... don't worry... he's not.=)This guy was really calm when I first picked him up, so I got some cute pictures to start with...

*cute*

*adorable*

"I can escape!"

"Oh no you can't, buddy"

And... the poor lone girl... I'm thinking I will probably pair her up with Jenna's baby, Kailey.

Oh yeah... I have some news about Jenna... at the bottom of this post!

dodging the camera

~li'l cutie~

peeking out =)

 One way they would calm down nicely was when I would hold them by their necks... it looks kinda' weird, but, hey, they're probably pretty used to it by now! =)

You know, with their parents carrying them around like that all the time. =)

She looks so funny in this one! =)

And now...

the news about Jenna!!

I put her in a split cage with Alfie... a young male of mine... and 

they are now another breeding pair!

 (at least they will be by the time they have their babies =)

I have been having a lot of interest lately, and decided I needed some more babies around here!

Finally... an update!!!

Wow!  I'm sorry I haven't posted in sooo long!  Here are finally some pictures of the new pups.  Sadly, only two of them survived... but they sure are cute!  Some of these pictures I have had for quite a while, I just haven't gotten around to posting them yet.

Well, here they are!  Enjoy!

These first four are from before they had their eyes open, which would have been Aug. 8

The two  of them =)

One little girl (I haven't named them yet)...

and the other little girl!

I'm not quite sure which one this is =)

 Now here are some of them with their eyes open on Aug. 17.

This one is probably my favorite! :)

One little girl...

and the other one =)

Another random pic.

 They are soo crazy when they first open their eyes that I had trouble keeping them still enough to take some pictures... until I put them in this little box! =)

So cute!

Peeking over the edge

up close

Hope you enjoyed!  I will try to take some more recent pictures of them... and actually post them while they are still recent! =)

Jenna

Surprise!!!! I have six new gerbils!  Yesterday, I went to the pet store (there website is here... it's an awesome store!) to get some things, and they had a gerbil that had just had an accidental litter of five babies.  Now, one of my favorite stages of gerbils is when they are babies, so they let me take her home with me to raise the babies for them!  The babies are almost a week old.  'Jenna' is a little bit skittish, but she is already getting much better... she loves cheerios! =)  I will hopefully be posting some pictures of them pretty often.

*sweet* 

Note: These pups are not going to be available for adoption... just a fun little project of mine!
