why do they change color ??? emotion ??:confused::confused:
your somewhat correct :)

Changing colour is an expression of the physical and physiological condition of the lizard. The colour also plays an important part in communication. Despite popular belief, chameleons cannot change colour to their surroundings. Chameleons are naturally coloured for their surroundings as a camouflage.

Maybe your fish died and your mom replaced it with another feeder. That would explain the color change.

Albinism is genetic, therefore you can't turn albino ;)
