We used to raise Siamese gerbilsat myvacational school. There is nothing different about them thenfrom 'normal' gerbils. Siamese is just the name of the color.

 

cool I was worriedthey were actually a differenttype seems the femaleat least to me has a different shaped headand nose but maybe its the color??

Gypsy: They aren't any different. Justthe coloring, which I think is just wonderful. We had some inat my store a few weeks ago and it was all I could do not to bring somehome. The coloring is fairly rare, but they are just thesame. I always bred the Siamese to the other Siamese, I thinkit's a recessive coloration so. I had good luck withthem. Gerbils are such good little family units.
