Re: Color Change

just give him a while to get used to the new surroundings...he is probably just a little stressed...give him a few days and see what happens.Reptiles get a little stressed when moved to new enclosures...he should get calm soon and turn nice and green again

Re: Color Change

Make sure he has a nice place to hide. They'll usually go dark when out in the open (Mine has a tendency to do this)
