It is normal for these guys to adjust their colors. They will change colors if they go from a light to a dark substrate. They also change colors with mood. My guess is that he/she is responding to the illumination levels and is not sick or suffering from a skin disease, at least if that is the only thing that you have noticed changing. In a way, it’s good news, because with chytrid fungus and other nasties, the color change from dusk to daylight illumination would not be happening easily and regularly. Good observation of your pet is the best way to keep the little guy healthy and prevent illnesses from taking hold, so good for you in noticing this color change in your pet and getting some input about it.
