Favorite Gerbil Colors?


I'm just wondering what is everyones favorite colors or pattern types for gerbils I'm partial to the spotted black (like my Moo) Grays and whites they are so pretty

also does anyone in here breed their gerbils and keep track of genetics and pedigrees, any good way of keeping track of it all that isnt on the computer? I use microsoft office excel and it works pretty well but I have to turn the computer on everytime I want to try some new genetics and it gets kind of annoying I was going to try and upload a page of it to show what it looks like but id have to transfer it to word and i dont know how well that would work but ill figure it out sooner or later

I chose "color point" because I love siamese and burmese gerbils.My only gerbil ever though was black!
I did see some gorgeous black & white gerbs at the pet store last night though and they have inspired me to get more gerbils.Dunno if I will though.

I have a black gerbil that has white on her feet, its like she has those punk gloves with the fingers cut out cause her hand is white with black fingers and a white spot on her chin. She is from a really bad petstore though (roommate got her for his snake but snake didn't want to eat her so now she is mine. I don't like supporting that store though. and technically i didn't but am playing with her) She just got a ball to roll around in around the house although she hasn't figured it out yet.
