Hi, I've gotten the impression that chameleons get more colourful as they grow older, is that right? Neelix is a 4 month old veiled and at the moment he's a lovely array of greens but no yellow or blue in him. Will he get more colours?
Thanks!

Nice one! Breeding would be fun, but I'd be scared of doing things wrong lol

Just a quick questions- he's currently gone darkest green and is stalking around his cage. I thought this meant they're stressed? Or is he just hunting? I turned his basking temp up to 80 this afternoon & I've never seen him so active!

well hes dark green cuz hes cold!!

his basking temp should be at least 83-86.

oops, I had him cooler than 80 until today! I got myself confused (there's another thread I started on the matter yesterday, where I was given a range of temperatures.) Is it bad to up the temp suddenly or will he just be relieved to be toasty again? thanks :)
 
Done, & I moved his thermometer to his basking spot, so I can see it now, because the thermostat sensor is placed further down the cage and I realised that wasn't giving me the info I needed.
