Hey Rachel,
I absolutely adore my black mama. She's the sweetest gerbil :) I love
black gerbils, the little white spots on her paws and her white chin stripe
are simply adorable. And my papa gerbil is an agouti, and I think he's a
cutie too ;) I dunno, I definitely think personality matters so much more
over color. I wouldn't trade my agouti papa gerbil for any color! My gerbs
just had another litter, all agouti and black, and no one seems interested.
Of course, of the people on the list, I think its just a matter of distance
:)
