I can't be certain, but I don't think guinea pigs actually learn their names.
It's more likely that they learn to recognise your voice, rather than to respond to their actual name.
So, if an owner calls to its guinea pig 'Roger, Roger' or whatever, it will probably learn to recognise his or her voice - and as it knows that owner - it will respond.
It might also associate the voice tone, or perhaps even the word (but that is less likely) to something.
For instance, if the owner calls to its guinea pig 'Roger, Roger' whilst he or she is feeding it, or petting it, then the guineapig will associate the owner's cry of 'Roger' with food or petting.
So basically, either way, when this owner cries out the name 'Roger' then the guinea pig will probably respond.
Then again, maybe there is a super intelligent guinea pig out there that learns its actual name, so even if the owner says it in a really souped up voice, it still recognises it. But, sorry to ruin it for you, I highly doubt that.
There are no specific names for gerbils you can call her whatever you like
Carefully You just play with them quite a lot, and feed them and give them water Change their bedding as much as it needs, play with them more and try to get them to learn their names.
Gerbils can be very smart if you take the time to train them. Gerbils can easily learn their name. To answer the question the intellegence of gerbils is on a scale from 1-10 I would say a 6 or 7.
My Gerbils name is Shiloh and My brothers gerbils name is nibbles I hope I helped you!
They never learn to eat on there own. You still have to feed them.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! no no. Gerbils are born with eyes, only they cannot open them for about a week - 2 weeks.Here's a really good website i used to learn about gerbils. I put it on the eyesight page:http://www.egerbil.com/eyesight.htmlTrust me, no viruses. It's great!
They don't 'need' names, they'll never know, recognise or react to their name - naming them is more for our own convenience.
you get a treat and make the gerbil follow it and eventually it will learn to do the course for a treat
Gerbils should not be separated from their mother until at least six weeks of age, since they still have many gerbil behaviors to learn. Gerbils taken from their mother before then can suffer from not being as friendly or healthy as they could be.
yes they can learn other people's names
For fun they like to chew paper and cardboard. They also like to run in plastic balls, once they learn how!
Yes they love this, I bath my gerbil and cat together Only if you never want it to learn to swim.
