All I know is 1 reason.

Maybe if you have 2 or more gerbils maybe one of the gerbils scratched the other one......My brothers gerbil did that to mine all the time.

I hope I helped you!

There are three main reasons:

1. Allergies- your gerbil may be allergic to the bedding you use (especially if it is sawdust or man made. But this is if the whole nose is really red and sore.

2. Washing- If it bleeds just a little bit, this is most likely caused by them scratching with their claws if they are sharp when they wash themselves.

3. Fighting- If you see your gerbils fighting, they may be scratching each other, but only if it is obvious.

Number two is most likely, so don't worry, your gerbil will almost certainly be fine

Hope it helped

Don't worry, it's nose isn't really bleeding. Gerbils' snot and "eye boogers" are red, so it just looks like blood. Your gerbil just has a cold, and his nose is running. This happened to my gerbils last year, and they were fine.
