Question
my gerbil is really skinny he wont eat much i feed him everyday but i dont know whats wrong

Answer
Hello Kayleigh,
do you have any vitamin drops to put in the gerbils water?? Generally oasis vitamin drops is very good on helping making small animals healthier. Is your gerbil showing his rib cage or feels boney? If he feels boney I'd consider taking him to a vet to get looked at as he could be sick.
