Dude, theyre rodents. Put them together, they'll do it when they're good and ready. They're not humans, there's no wining and dining.

Re: Gerbils
Gerbils have a real hierarchy system so it's best to do pairs vs. 1 male to multiple females. They will eventually mate but if they came from a group where the male was low rank and the female high rank, she may just snob it up for a bit. If he's mounting or you hear stomping signs are all good :o)

I am also interested in trying to breed gerbils if anyone has any info. Does the male eat the babies, do you have to separate? Thanks!
