Sorry, but there is only one "type" of Agouti. An Agouti gerbil has a white
belly. It sounds like your freind is confusing the normal Nutmeg with
Agouti.
The normal Nutmeg has coloring similar to the Agouti but the belly is the
same color as the body, only a shade lighter.
To see what an Agouti looks like vs a Nutmeg go to the gerbil color pallet
