What does it mean if your girbil is making a clicking sound?

A clicking ornchirping sound can be normal in a happy or excited gerbil. But, if you only hear the clicking sound when he is eating I would be worried about the teeth. A gerbil’s teeth continuously grow and if not worn down appropriately they can become overgrown and cause problems with eating. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.
