    Gerbils up in the day..

    My two gerbils are both nocturnal and up in the day. I looked at a couple of websites and they say it is normal. How long do gerbils sleep for? If They are up and night and day when do they find time to sleep?.

    They sleep, you just might not always be around to see it ;] Mostly they sleep in the day though, but they are up to do they're thing

    lol I just saw this, yes gerbils are neither nocternal, nor diaternal. they sleep when they feel like, never at any particular time though. basicly they sleep when they are bored.
