I would say they don't really fire up. They do change colour depth and pattern with age though.

EG;

Male chahoua at 6 weeks old

And at adult age

Gargoyles on the other hand do fire up:

EG;

Normal

'Fired up'

Wow Jackie, they are stunning!! Very Happy

The top picture looks like (I believe) my female Gehyra the other night, she was completely Chocolate coloured, but is now back to being mottled grey again. If I'd been quicker and she'd been slower I mght have even got a picture Laughing

You certainly can't mistake the male can you Laughing
