She will likely deepen in colour as she gets older. The ear tufts are Ok and if you rub them they often sort of tease out anyway. The reason Red has pale ears is because she is a red eyed cream (I know she looks black in the pics but she is red eyed) Red eyes have flesh coloured ears which usually get some brown tinging as the get older however the standard for a black eyed cream calls for dark grey or black ears so Imogens are correct for her eye colour. She will likely also get some darkish pigmentation on her 'girly bits' and her hip scent glands. You can read the standards on the Midland Hamster club site if you look there.
