I'm so glad you like the photos as I'm aware they're not everyone's cup of tea. It's lovely sharing them with people who actually want to see them rather than people just being polite!

No, they were sleeping, so they just carried on sleeping. Growing so quickly is wearing them out! Once their eyes open they won't be so relaxed, so I'm making the most of this. I was late to see a friend last night because I couldn't stop watching them. :l: Fortunately she said she wouldn't have me any other way :lol:

I'm not sure if you can see this if you're not on Instagram, but the little brown one has GOT to be in the middle of the trio, all the time. He executes a somersault to get into his favourite position in this. https://www.instagram.com/p/CGchMB0C4Nx/

It's such a gift.

This is one of my favourites. The gerbils have discovered they have legs, and their eyes have opened, which is obviously v exciting, but means no more snoozing in my palms.

Breakfast. They're changing every day! My boss tried to interrupt me sexing them (I'm on leave) so I sent him a photo of a gerbil bum.. This is a nicer link.
