figuring out my chams colors

[fbiband]

so my female 4 month old cham is usually a bright greenish blue color, but sometimes she her colors change. You can see darker green stripes become more vivid and other green dots appear. This happens sometimes when she is basking, but also some times when she is being watched and wants to be left alone. I am wondering if this same color can act for different reasons, and if anyone else's female turns this color.

They turn dark to absorb the heat. They will also turn dark, very dark, when stressed. The blue green colors are the happy colors.
