Normally he's a mid to dark green colour, but he can go anything from black (which means he's very stressed and about to die!) to a stunning cyan (which means he's excited). No, he doesn't go 'real tree' if you put him on a jacket (that is actually a urban myth, they change with mood and only to colours specific to the type). I've had a water dragon too which make good pets and I quite like the bearded dragons, they look like what most people would call a proper lizard. Crow Quote Link to post Share on other sites
