When can you separate the babies from their mother gerbils?

You can separate baby gerbils from their mother when they are around 4 to 5 weeks old. At this age, they are typically weaned and capable of eating solid food independently. It's important to ensure that they are fully weaned before separation to promote their health and well-being. Additionally, separating them at this age helps prevent mating-related issues as they approach sexual maturity.
