what colors would veileds fire up when they are angry and happy?
what do you think about this pic ? angry ,happy,normal ? its a male
 
usually when they are angry they will gap their mouth open sometimes making gasping noises. They will also become darker colors. :) Pretty cham too by the way :)

he could use a bit more coverage in his enclosure so she has places to hide when he wants to. I recommend getting a pothos and haanging it in the enclosure :)

Edt: what is her hummidity at? and how many times is he being misted? he looks a little dehydrated to me. you might want to offer some extra water. or feeders like hornworms with moisture in them
 
almost all the cage is full of plants but this branch is not so , it takes me around 5 min to find him
 
humidity 55-60 % normal and 75-80 when i mist , i mist 3-5 times a day , urates white , poop normal , he drinks from the bottle i mist and from leaves
 
When my chameleon is mad she puffs up and keeps her side to me, she opens her mouth and sometimes hisses. she also becomes a lot darker in colour.
 
colours

hello arnau, when my veilled is happy he just goes bright yellow & green, but u will know if he is pissed off, he will inflate show black colours or black spots gape mouth and hiss load at you, sometimes even lunge at you. so dont worry u will know if hes not happy.
 
These are fairly cumfortable semi-fired up colors... I also see these colors when he sees another Male Cham..They are on the bright side of the yellows and greens.

These are more of a stress colors.. Darker greens and the yellow almost looks a lil like sulfer. He hates Hornedworms as you can tell. He also shows these colors when trying to get him out of his cage against his will.

Relaxad, non-fired up. It all depends on his mood and temps. I find that the warmer the room temp is he will be a lil on the lighter side,

Cold and will go veryyyyy dark (not fired up) to try to absorb heat. This pic was taken in the morning right b4 his lights turned on. He was already up because the sun was up, but the house was very cool.

i just took those 1 min ago,what d u think?

He looks very healthy. Dosent seem stressed, just maybe a lil suprised by the camera (as all Chams seem to be).. You will start to see a wider color change when he starts to get a bit older.

goodluck and welcome.
 
Jon great pictures and descriptions for people to learn by. Thanks for sharing and taking time to explain

In those pictures he does look much healthier. so it must have been the picture. :) Great looking guy!

And Jonrich has given you some great pics to refer to. it really shows the difference quite well.

Edit: I can't wait to see this guy when he gets his adult colors ;) gonna be a looker for sure
