Got my first panther today, and I'm a complete novice. Since bringing her home, she's turned from a brownish colour, to a very pale colour. I know they change depending on mood. But is this a bad sign? She is eating and drinking, and is quite active in the viv.
As a baby, they generally are not very colorful and can look like turds. You will see a lot of posts "His colors are coming in!" which is when the pale cham will start to turn what ever colors it was meant to be.
Dark brown when hot out, is generally bad.
Dark brown when cold out, is generally good.
Light brown is generally good all the time.
Very white/pink may meant its too hot.
