Which do you prefer: hamster or gerbil and why2007-11-24 22:19:36
I am debating wether I want a hamster or gerbil. Both seem like nice little friends but if there is anyone out there who has had both and has any input what-so-ever, please share!
Answers:hamster
1) they don't smell as bad
2) i have been bitten by gerbils but never hamsters
3) hamsters are soo much cuter!!
Gerbil, They are more social to humans and other gerbils, (hamsters are solitary), gerbils are not nocternal, and they bite less
me personally I perfer a gerbil. I have had guinea pigs, hansters, gerbils,etc. Any rodent. Gerbils do bite a lot but they're really nice once they know you.
neither, they both smell bad and bite. i recomend rats, they do not bite and are more sociable.
Gerbil's, Because they seem to connect more with there owners. They tend to be more affectionate as well. They don't smell as bad, Although I would suggest getting a well vandalized cage..they will smell a lot less rather than a cage with bad vitalization.
Gerbils also like to be handled more(in my experience) I have had hamsters, mice, rats, and gerbils...I prefer gerbils.
Good luck :)
hamster. I have two dwarf hamsters
My friend accidentally throw her hamster and it lived and wasn't pissed at us. Then my other friend was just holding the class gerbil (he wasn't hurting it or anything) and it bite his finger to the point where it wouldn't let go!
