there base color stays green but the older they get there pattern will emerge and it just seems to get mor impressive with age they do not keep that all over green they have as babies here is my baby lol well he is one year old now the patches will go bright yellow when he is pissed or excited and he can go very grumpy like his dad too i was lucky to catch him like that 2 secs after that pic he was all mad and brown lol
hope that helps
this is his mom mrs moo
this is little moo at around one month old i think
and dad Mr moo he tends to be very dark and brown because he is always pissed off lol but ocasionally ill catch him basking with bright yellows and greens. he is sposed to be a Uropean male im not sure how true that is I got him at the rep show about mabey 3 years ago and he was 5 or 6 months when i got him.
hope that helps

Rebecca: Every chameleon species is different, so I'm going to limit my reply about colours to the Veiled Chameleons. Females tend to be a uniform green colour once they are adults. They have a slight pattern of light browns and oranges. Depending on other factors that I will get into in response to Meow, they will get shades of peacock blue, or dark colours etc but they certainly they aren't as colourful as the males.
Meow: While you are on the right track I am going to correct you. Chameleons colours are determined by many internal and external factors, mating being one of them. Females will signal to the male with her colours if she is ready to mate. She will put on a different suit of colours is she is already gravid. The male will respond to either display with his own. While not always the case, it's usually the female thats doing the attracting or signalling.
The colours they are displaying at any given time depend on a lot of things besides breeding status. I could go on at length and bore everyone to tears, but some include temperature, light intensity, season, mood, health, gestation, danger. It's a subtle form of communication really.
