My sister just bought an 8 week old male gerbil. When she bought him (a couple of weeks ago) he was entirely apricot colored (gold/orange). He had a bit of grey on the nose making his face look dirty. Now his belly has turned dark grey! He looks like he has layed down in ash. Both his parents were brown.
What kind is he? Will he keep changing color all over?

Sounds indeed like a nutmeg! And if he is he will change from yellow/orange to brown! Here some picture of the nutmeg page I've made (see link in J's post). It is the same gerbil in every pic!

I like the dark adults too! But I have also Dark Eyed Honeys, so I have also yellow/orange gerbils (the only difference is that they have a white belly)! And I like the changing of colour! It is great to see them change! ;D
