Now these guys are my favorite, they look like a cross between kangaroos and gerbils and act like little chinchilla's taking dust baths in the sand. Real tame and friendly too.

How many did you get Scott? Just a pair or a colony? Where are they from? A desert somewhere?

These are great little critters I have a pair of Greater egyptian jerboas and they are a lot of fun  Not tame as such, but will tolerate loose handling and a bit of head scratching  What size enclosure do you have them in and are they lesser egyptian jerboas?

Do they have front limbs (very small ones?)
I've seen these at zoos-funny little things.

I have seen these before, sorry but they always make me laugh. I think they look very funny, almost as though they should not exist, a bit like a bumble in flight. They are cute though.

They do have front legs and yes they are small, bit like a furry T-rex without the teeth!
