They would be just your normal run-of-the-mill gerbils.

If y'all thought MICE were bad about eating their babies... This is the first litter that they haven't decided to cannibalize.

I just keep them to use for scenting pinky mice for the stubborn baby corns. It seems to work quite well.

I never really had a problem with the Gerbils eating their babies, but those darn Hamsters!

Bah... Hamsters can eat their babies into extinction for all I care!
I've never been bit by a gerbil or mouse, both of which I have several. I've never owned a hamster, but I think that every one I touched for the three years working at a pet store bit me at least twice!

I do have to say that it seems like gerbils are less likely to eat 'em if pregnant mommy has a cage to herself.

Nah... with as difficult as they seem to be to raise, as expensive as they are (compared to mice) and as quirky as they can be, I don't use them as regular feeders. I did have to ONCE, and that was for my adult female BP. I mostly just keep them to scent mice for the baby corns and whatever the BP is eating. Even then, I just use some of their dirty bedding, which isn't going to hurt the gerbils none.
