Gerbil food in this category – quick selection guide
Gerbils are true foragers: they love to select, peel, and store food. So choose a seed-rich base and use variety primarily for enrichment. Not sure? Since 2011, we've been selecting food based on its suitability for rodent lovers who want a little more than the "standard."
1) Daily basic food (main mix)
- Bunny Nature Gerbildroom Expert (500 g) – premium base for gerbils.
- Gerbil Basic Menu (500 g) – clear, daily basis.
- Natural Gerbil Food (500 g) – natural approach, suitable as a daily basis.
- Farm Food Gerbil (500 g) – seed/grain mix as a basis.
- Little One gerbil food – accessible basic option.
- Supreme Gerri Gerbil (850 g) – larger package, practical for a regular routine.
- JR Farm Gerbill Feast (600 g) – varied mix for daily feeding.
- Beaphar Care+ Mouse/Gerbil (700 g) – handy if you are looking for one food that is also intended for mice/gerbils.
2) Variety & foraging (for sniffing and active feeding)
- Foraging menu – ideal for scattering (small portions) and encouraging foraging behaviour.
- Complete Hamster & Gerbil – practical as a combination food (use with portion control).
- Witte Molen Puur Mini Hamster Friends (400 g) – also used by hamster/gerbil enthusiasts; always check what your gerbils select.
- Versele-Laga Crispy Muesli Hamsters & Co – more “muesli-style”; offer it as a variation and keep the basic food leading.
3) Protein & insects (supplement, not main food)
- JR Farm Rodent Protein Special (600 g) – for responsible supplementary feeding in addition to the basic mix.
- Little One Insect Mix – handy protein variation (small and measured).
✔ Tip for beginners: choose one staple food, gradually increase the intake, and introduce variety in small steps. Gerbils hoard, so don't just assess the food bowl, but also the storage areas in the enclosure.
What is gerbil food?
Gerbil food is the daily diet that provides your gerbils with energy and nutrients. In practice, it usually involves a mix of seeds and grains, supplemented with suitable ingredients for variety. The goal is a food that gerbils can easily digest and that matches their natural behavior (selecting, peeling, and hoarding).
What should you look for in good gerbil food?
- Basis = seeds & grains as the main component, suitable for active gerbils.
- Limited “snack feeling” : food that is too sweet or too fatty usually does not fit as well into a daily routine.
- Variation with care : extras (such as insects) are supplementary, not the main role.
- Feeding behavior : Gerbils select and stockpile food; therefore, also check stockpiles.
How much food do you give per day?
As a practical guideline, you can start with a small daily portion and adjust based on activity, age, and body condition. Many adult gerbils eat an average of a few grams of dry food per day. More important than an exact number: avoid consistent leftovers (especially with muesli-like mixes) and monitor what is actually being eaten.
Water should always be available. Gerbils often drink little, but fresh, clean drinking water should always be available.
Smart combination with hay, herbs & enrichment
- Hay, herbs & seeds – for variety and a fun browsing experience.
- Gerbil snacks – only supplementary and in moderation.
- Play & forage – make eating an activity.
Checklist – feeding gerbil food practically and responsibly
✔ Choose one basic food and keep variation supplementary.
✔ Make feeding active (sprinkles, hiding, food puzzles).
✔ Also check stockpiles (hoarding is normal).
✔ Fresh water always available.
✔ If you have any doubts about appetite, behaviour or stool, consult a veterinarian.
Safety
Introduce new foods slowly and gradually. Monitor your gerbils' continued normal eating and activity levels. If you notice any significant changes in appetite, stool, or behavior, contact a veterinarian.
FAQ – gerbil food
What is the best gerbil food?
The best gerbil food is a seed-rich base mix that suits their active behavior, with variety as a supplement. Choose one main mix and don't change it too often, so you can properly assess what they're actually eating.
Why do my gerbils seem to be "eating very little"?
Gerbils hoard food. They often store food in tunnels or in a house. Therefore, check storage areas as well, not just the food bowl.
Are insects necessary?
Insects and protein supplements are intended as a treat or variation. Use them in moderation and keep the base feed in the lead.
✔ Gerbil food with selection guide for basic and varied diets
