can some one explain to me what these color and patterns are on my female veiled chameleon? From what I’ve heard and researched is that light green is a stage of relaxation, but waking her up from her sleep she put a new pair of clothes on and showed out her patterns , I was curious to know what this means?

Welcome on here! They look like “fired up” colors, did you startle her/wake her up abruptly?

Here’s the husbandry review, just copy and paste it then fill it in. Using as much detail as possible and including pics of her entire cage (lights to bottom), and the area around her cage (she might see a reflection of herself or sees something that upsets her near her cage), will be very helpful!

Here is some recommended information to include when asking for help in the health clinic forum. By providing this information you will receive more accurate and beneficial responses. It might not be necessary to answer all these questions, but the more you provide the better. Please remember that even the most knowledgeable person can only guess at what your problem may be.
