Hello im new here :) A month ago I bought a little 2 month old chameleon and after a couple of weeks He was still very aggressive and my brother asked for him and i let him take him, then I went to a pet shop and there was a lovely little 7 week old guy scratching at the glass and i went back about 5 times too see him and 3 days ago i couldn't resist buying him, hes lovely , he comes over when you go near his viv & hasn't hissed or puffed up at anyone, but theres something wrong, whenever he is in his viv he is dark green/brown, but soon as you put youre finger in and he comes out he goes light green, everytime i saw him in the petshop viv he was light green, hes got the same setup as the aggressive chameleon, He has the correct temperatures, lots of climbing & hiding places and eats & drinks fine, so im a little confused, can anyone help me out?? thanks :)
 
Plz fill out the above form, and post picture. What exactly are your temps? Typically dark colors indicate stress or being too cold.
