They are probably just talking to each other. Gerbils are very social and hardly ever fight with other gerbils that they've grown up with. A squeak might sound painful to us, but to them it's just talking.
Enjoy your pets!

I dont think ur girbills are hurting e/o at all. i used to have girbills and hamsters when i waas younger and they used to do that all the time. They could be talking to e/o and maybe some other stuff too....... :-) also maybe if u think they are fighting u should separate them so they dont hurt e/o. but i think they are just talking and stuff, nothing to wory bout. also girbils are friendly creatures!!! they wouldnt bite e/o or anything!! they are probably just talking!! and u have had them since 8th grade anyway!! so they obviously are used to e/o!!!
