Meet the Parents!
Below you will find our breeding gerbils!
All of our gerbils are registered with the American Gerbil Society.
Please Note: These gerbils are not available for adoption unless otherwise noted.
WWCO's S'MORES
DOB: 10/4/2021
MALE
STATUS: ACTIVE
GENERATION: FIRST
Mottled Black
S'mores is a big, BIG boy and will help bring red eyed gerbils to our clan. S'mores was born right here at WWCO and is the sweetest thing ever. Excited to see what he brings to our lines!
WWCO's BROWNIE
DOB: 6/17/2022
FEMALE
STATUS: ACTIVE
GENERATION: THIRD
Agouti out of WWCO's Guinea Pig and WWCO's Butters.
Brownie is a long awaited girl who has the most amazing tail tuft! She will help bring red eyed gerbils and more dilute gerbils to our lines!
WWCO's Fox
DOB: 11/23/2022
MALE
STATUS: COMING SOON
GENERATION: SECOND
Agouti
Fox is a sweet guy with a bent up tail. His tail got kinked during an introduction that failed, but that doesn't stop him. If his tail had not been injured, he'd be the PERFECT show specimen! I can't wait to see that fluffy tail get passed along to his offspring.
GG's/WWCO's Pizza
DOB: 11/25/2022
MALE
STATUS: ACTIVE
GENERATION: FOUNDING/EXPANSION
Dilute Slate
This handsome fellow may look like a blue, but he is actually a Dilute Slate! He was named by my son who happens to love Pizza and wanted to continue on with our “food names”. He came from Gerbil Genesis in Ohio and as of Feb. 2023 has been paired with Pie…so we have Pizza Pie pups on the way and are the start of a new blood line!
GG's/WWCO's Ash
DOB: 11/25/2022
MALE
STATUS: COMING SOON
GENERATION: FOUNDING/EXPANSION
Silver Nutmeg
All the way from Ohio out of Gerbil Genesis, this guy is STUNNING. His fur is so plush and pretty and his tail tuft is absolutely magnificent. I cannot wait to start working with him towards producing more silver nutmegs.
GG's/WWCO's PIE
DOB: 6/16/2022
FEMALE
STATUS: ACTIVE
GENERATION: FOUNDING/EXPANSION
Agouti
While she may appear “ordinary”, this girl is hiding some secrets! Apple Pie, or Pie for short, is a heavy recessive carrying agouti who will bring much excitement to our breeding program. With her, we will finally be able to produce gray agouti! She came all the way from Gerbil Genesis in Ohio.
WWCO's CHEETO
DOB: 11/2022
FEMALE
STATUS: COMING SOON
GENERATION: FOUNDING/EXPANSION
Red Eyed Schimmel
What can we say other than this girl is absolutely magnificent! It will be a while before we are able to produce our own Schimmels and Red Eyed Schimmels, but the future is super exciting for this girl and the rare genes she is providing. This stunning girl came from Fen’Halla Mousery in Texas.
WWCO's CAT
DOB: 11/2022
FEMALE
STATUS: COMING SOON
GENERATION: FOUNDING/EXPANSION
This shy but pretty girl came from Texas and Fen’Hall Mousery. We have some work to do with her before she will be considered for breeding, but with time and patience we think she will turn out perfectly. Her future mate will be “Fox” and they will help continue our original lines.
OUR PROMISE TO BREED ETHICALLY
We will not overbreed our animals!
We separate our males and females after a few litters to allow the mother time to rest and heal. We believe breeding gerbils back to back, without meaningful breaks, is unethical and cruel. After a 2-3 month break, we spit-cage introduce pairs back together for another 2-3 litters before breaking again. Momma is always kept with a female pup and dad usually moves over to help make another litter.
For this reason you will often see one of our males paired with more than one female (NOT AT THE SAME TIME)! We rotate breeding pairs to allow for heathy mommas which means heathy babies! This also allows for us to develop stronger breeding lines ensuring strong genes are passed down.
