Current Problem - Bought Bud from local aquarium/reptile shop, he was in cage with other males of same age, all were very light green in cage in shop, Bud was also very light green when we bought him home, bought a starter kit and set it up before we got him. He was light green for the first couple of days but has now started turning a darker colour, often on one side only and the other side is light green, some times he is just very dark but as soon as u take him out of the cage he goes much lighter, he is very good with being handled and will eat from yr hand, he is moving around the cage ok, eats well and poops well, not seen him drink but poop is white and brown as suggested it should be on here. Just wondering if his darker colouring is anything to be concerned about, thought the darker colour was supposed to mean he is stressed but thought that he would be more stressed when he was being handled but he is light green then, he seems to be the opposite.
Sorry on an iPad and not sure how to post pics :/
