This is probably a stupid newby question, but Im really curious!
Ive notices that by baby beardie, Wink, changes his color alot. He can go from a really dark grayish/almost black color, to a really pretty sandy brown. What does it mean when he changes colors? He is usually a really dark color when he is in his tank, but when I take him out he always turns a tan color.
My best guess is that they are darker when they are cold so they can attract more sunlight, but I dont think it totally makes sense because temperature doesnt seem to always affect what color he is. Does it have something to do with their mood too?
Thanks!
