Gerbil "tears" are red. If the eye itself looks OK and it's just that the fur is stained, I wouldn't worry about it. I see this sometimes with my PEWs and REWs, I think it just shows up so much on white fur that we notice it more than on other colors. :) Tana and The Little Rascals Now at http://rascals.mybravenet.com ------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up for ICQmail at http://www.icq.com/icqmail/signup.html
