Hello everyone. I am new to AGS, but I figured no one would know more about gerbils than members here, so I joined. I have a new gerbil, a Mongolian, named Gunny. He is the first gerbil I have cared for in over 40 years since I was a kid and cared for a Mongolian gerbil named Jet. Gunny seems like a good little fellow. One thing that is confusing me is why he flips his food bowl over constantly. Whenever I fill his bowl with food and set it up for him, almost without fail, sometime later, I will see that he has flipped the bowl and then any food that was left is mixed into his bedding. What is going on here, if anything? Thank you. Michael

He is just being a gerbil. He might like it better in the bedding.
