So Sorry for sending this twice, but I forgot to put a
subject on the previous one and was afraid those not
receiving the digest version would not open the
message for safety concerns or something.
Anyway...

Please help me determine the true color of my gerbil.

Someone suggested Sage may be spotted lilac rather
than spotted dove. I suppose this is possible, but he
is So light really , and I am taking the photos with
flash off and using Enhance on Photo Suite 3 so that
he does not appear as white as he does when I use
flash. From the color sites I have seen, lilac is
quite a bit darker than my gerbil actually looks in
person.

The photos on the first page of my site are a bit
darker than he really looks.  A couple of the photos
on these pages come closer to his actual color.

and one with flash, a bit brighter than his real
color...

In the photos of Lilac on The Gerbils Color Palette
Sage looks more like the gerbil behind the lilac than
the lilac. In fact almost exactly like the one in
back.
Of course if the spotting gene has that much of a
lightning effect perhaps his color is called Lilac
even though he appears dove? Or is it possible that he
is sapphire?

I am still trying very hard to learn all of this and I
just want to be certain I have his color correct. So I
am asking for as many opinions as possible and I
suppose maybe go with the majority?
What does everyone think think?
