Dragons (and a good number of lizards) can change the color of their skin based on different cues. Dragons can control the melanin (dark pigment) in special cells to brighten or darken. It's controled by hormones but can be a responce to mood/emotion, temperature, UV exposure and other things

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
