Mine is the same way. He is dark ALL the time. Except when he gets mad, then he shows his color. Otherwise, he is dark brown all the time. I have asked about this before and never recieved any good information about it. Maybe you will have better results with your question though.
I do not do this.
However, i know someone who mentioned that they feed their 5-6 month old Veiled Cham 4-6 mealworms everyday, on top of 8-10 crickets. I have read that this is bad. What can i tell this person the end result will be if he continues to do this.

RC is available for free from Microsoft website and is good until June 2010. I have been using it for months. You said you were making a project, and i was just suggesting a good operating system.
My dad owns a Les Paul that he purchased back in 1978. He still has the receipt for it and it is in perfect condition. Has gold plating on it and stuff. Its a nice guitar.
