We had to take the gerbils as a three, as they were the only 3 left of the litter and it would have been unfair to leave one kit on her own at a young age. We never split them whilst young as we feared one would get very lonely, as my mum's had experience of gerbils dying of loneliness, apparently. They are also only one year old.

Ebony is most certainly the bully (the runt of the litter and with the biggest ego ), and I just hope she won't turn on Twilight at some point, at least they seem pretty pally for the moment.
