Gerbils are true ground animals and like to dig tunnels. It's like they're building a whole new underground kingdom! So, to stimulate those digging talents, a thick layer of ground cover is essential. Luckily, we've put together a great selection of the best ground covers for your furry friends.

Why do you need a good layer of bedding for Gerbils?

Well, because they like to dig, of course! For the creative types, setting up a Gerbil enclosure is a great challenge, and it all starts with the right bedding. Because Gerbils like to dig tunnels in the wild, it is important that the ground cover enables this behavior. The perfect solution? A mix of two types of ground cover! For example, consider wood fibers with hemp or cotton with hay. You can also create layers for some extra digging fun!

How Much Ground Cover Do Gerbils Need?

Well, the thicker layer the better! Gerbils love to bury themselves in a large layer of ground cover of about 20 cm high . You don't have to cover the entire enclosure, a slope down can be fun too!

Gerbils are true masters of digging , so give them space to unleash their inner architect. A ground cover of about 20 cm high is ideal for these small diggers. It's like an inviting sandy beach where they can happily dig in and create their own underground world.

The great thing is that you don't have to cover the entire enclosure with a thick layer of ground cover. You can play with the height and create variation. A clever trick is to build a slope that slopes so that your Gerbils have a fun slide to run down before they dive into the deeper part of the ground cover. It's like they're on an adventurous roller coaster ride, but underground!

Why is a thicker layer of ground cover so important? Well, it allows Gerbils to satisfy their natural digging instinct. They will have a great time digging tunnels and corridors. It's like a fitness routine for their little paws, giving them both physical activity and mental stimulation. In addition, a thick layer of bedding provides extra insulation and absorbs moisture, keeping your Gerbils' living environment healthy and comfortable.

So, if you want to see your Gerbils enjoying their digging adventures and rummaging through the ground cover like a true Indiana Jones, make sure you provide them with a lush layer to burrow into. They will thank you with their cute faces and their energetic playfulness. It is a real pleasure to watch them as they enjoy themselves underground in their own Gerbil paradise!
