If you search YouTube there is a video posted on this. Monsoon vs Mistking . Watching that is why I went with Mistking and glad I did. Mist kings motor doesn't burn out if it runs dry . Per their words and my one time experience. Well worth the extra money.
It's normal, at least to my 6months experience of owning one. Mine changes colors when I bring him outside of his enclosure. He turns brighter. Someone else with more experience can chime in on it.
Here is my clear sided enclosure. I have two small pothos plants, one on the left side and on on the back wall, both midway up. The rest are fake leaves, vines. Homemade ladders. I'm not super creative, but this turned out decent. Since this was taken, prior to getting the chameleon, I have...
It was really accurate when he was smaller in the large enclosure, then I thought when he gets older and more colorful then that name won't fit. So far I am wrong, but if they don't have all of their true colors until 18 months of age, still have 7 months to go. Hoping is becomes more red. :-)...

Wow!! That's expensive. Buy online if you can. Checkout the place I recommended in previous reply. 28-30 bucks would get you 500 crickets including shipping. That would last me 2 months or a little more. I feed dubia also.
I get mine online from TopHat Crickets. They are banded and last forever! I use bug burger to feed them, water crystals, also use vegetables and fruit, take those out after a day or so. I have a lot of egg crates for hiding. I keep them in a Rubbermaid tub with their lid modified with screen...
I had the same issue, but mine was the newer timer. I am pretty smart with this kind of stuff. I followed directions over and over and it still would just stay on, which was very frustrating to me. I emailed the mistking guys and after they asked me to look at a couple of things to see if it was...
