Senegal Yellow and orange colours

[Dosh]

Hi everyone, I’m new to this forum. I’m after some advice my Senegal chameleon (pickle) shed it’s skin two days ago he was a lovely green before and now he’s gone a bright yellow/orange colour (see pic). Does anyone know if there is something wrong with him, should I be worried 😟 I’ve tried doing some research but nothing mentions about the colours he’s gone.
Please help 😊

Hello and welcome to the forums! I don't know much about Senegal chameleons, but maybe @Beman or @MissSkittles could help you.

I am no help here... @kinyonga I believe has worked with them.

Afraid I haven’t a clue either. I would do a search of the forum archive as I’m sure there’s got to be some info there.

Thank you everyone for all your help I will have a look and see if I can find anything in the archives 😊

@SteveH Do you know anything about Senegals? Or maybe have some accurate links with info on them?

Sadly I don't, they are a beautiful species though.

I am afraid I do not! That is a whole in my experience.

@kinyonga is the one who has kept these and knows about them. @javadi may have some knowledge too. Here’s a link that @kinyonga has shared in the past. Hope it helps. http://www.chameleonnews.com/08FebFrancis.html

Beautiful Cham, maybe those colors indicate receptive or gravid coloration? I have no experience with senegals. I’ve heard they are very short lived- sadly. But not sure if that’s entirely accurate.

I wish more mainland African species were available in the states. I’ve always been eager to try out some flapnecks.
