question on colors

[mitchbob345]

i Just bought a veiled about three months ago, and he has a variaty of black greens and a little yellows. nothing to special right now. hes about six months old. but i was wondering when he would start to develope more colors or if there was anything i could feed him or put in his cage to make him more colorful.

I know this will seem a silly question, but I assume you are also feeding crickets, maybe silks and hornworms?
I am reading dinofuel from Tom(tkilgor) has ingredients that are helping with color.
once they start to mature their colors brighten as well

Black, green, and yellow could indicated stress. Do you mean he is always dark? Pictures help. It's also good to make sure it's a male and to know the age.

no hes ussually a solid light green with a little yellow in his belly and yes i feed him crickets and sometimes silks.

My male Luie started getting colors at about 7 months old.
