What do you call baby gerbils?

Answer by  goldybar (37)

It is fine to refer to a baby gerbil as simply, a baby gerbil. This is how they are generally described. However, the correct terminology for a baby gerbil is a pup. Some other words you can use to describe a baby gerbil are juvenile, offspring, young, kit / kitten, or newborn.

When a buck gerbil and a doe gerbil mate and produce offspring (usually 1 to 8 per litter), the babies are called pups. Because they are rodents, the entire gerbil colony, including the pups, needs material to chew on.Chewing wood is good for the grownups and pups.
