Both of those pics Bentley had just seen Beman. So he was firing up trying to put on a display due to seeing another cham. IME they only fire up intensely when they are extremely pissed or have seen another cham. Otherwise they will hold their resting colors more muted and darker.bentley is very cute! i love his colors! my chameleon looks so different now compared to when he was a baby. thank you for the information by the way.
just one more question.. why does my chameleon always display darker colors even when he is stressed? your cham's colors are so much brighter than mine!
These were his resting colors.
