I've only just noticed this in my (I'm still confident she's an albino)
female.

This picture was taken a few nights ago with a good quality digital camera.
(she's 8 days from her due date, mated to a black) but it's very obvious
that she has some 'peachey' areas. At first I thought it was dirt/grease
but her fur is very clean. (Her mate is a good lover ;))
Funnily enough she is also a rescue gerbil, rescued from the local RSPCA
center in December last year. (She's approx 20 months old now).
