Have you seen the variety of dried nuts, fruits, and vegetables available for gerbils? So much! But to answer your question, gerbils love fresh fruits and vegetables.

Feeding pet gerbils a combination of foods helps to overcome the disadvantages of the different kinds of diets. A pelleted or block diet can form the balanced base of the diet, while a loose seed mix and other treats add interest and variety. You want to make sure gerbils eat enough of the pellets or blocks to get the nutritional benefit, so don't feed too much of the seed mix or other treats though. I would also recommend avoided seed mixes with sunflower seeds and reserving those as special treats (very helpful in taming and training).
