I really like the blacks and burmese. Reds are very cool also.

I've recently bought a nutmeg (by mistake!) and have fallen in love with her color. I thought she was a spotted DEH, but she's actually a spotted nutmeg and I"m having a blast watching her molt. I've had her for about a month and she's much, much darker than she was when I got her. So, I think right now, nutmegs are my favorite. Though I also like all the different shades of white/cream and all the different gray colors.

I just love them all! Although I have to agree with BrandyJo, watching molts that change a lot is great fun. I got my first Siamese just because I had never seen one around here before and she was so beautiful... I'm also pretty fond of spotteds/mottleds, but seriously, they're all great. I think most people who have met my gerbils have commented most on the Siamese, Burmese, Lilac, Sapphire, and the Argentes, though. And I'd really love to have a polar fox some day, they look so pretty...

I like them all too, but I especially like my gray one with red eyes.

I love all colors also but I love my own Lilac and Spotted Argente or Honey Cream. Not sure.

Then your boy is an argente. Honey Creams have black eyes.

:confused: Good question... I like a lot of them.

I like the burmese & siamese a lot..Geez I really don't have a fav.
Here is my Honey cream or spotted light DEH that has always been such a cutie and she was the only 1 out of 2 litters.

I have mainly blond gerbils.. I really loved the black ones, so got one. Then saw a black and white one and got her, too.

One of the pups I have is a tan with a thin layer of black on top. It's really cute.

But to answer your question, I like the greys the best. That's my new mission: find one.
