brothers pups have arrived

[Tytykid33]

My brother bought a pregnet gerbil from the petstore and she delivered the pups sometime this week im not sure when. but i was wondering. I dont think the mother is feeding the pups. What could we do to make her feed the pups? And if she is feeding the pups how would you know shes feeding them?? Lol sorry for all the questions.

You can tell if Mom is feeding her babies by looking at there little bellies and seeing a lighter spot under the skin. This would be called a "Milk Belly".

I know there are pictures of milk bellies out there, but I'm at work and don't have any of my gerbil links on this computer. So hopefully someone else can post one or two for ya.
