Commercial gerbil food is not kosher for Pesach. But don't worry, there's lots feed your pet - alfafa grass, alfafa pellets, sunflower seeds,  dried corn, fresh or home cooked veggies and fruits. I would suggest adding some of this food gradually to your pet's diet beginning now so that his (or her) tummy won't be upset.
