alot of the color on an igg comes from where they are from. most from central and south america will have the reticulated pattern that you are talking about and ones from mexico tend to have more red/ oranges in them. i forgot which book i read it in but it has seemed to hold true for the most part.

They do change the intensity of their color but not by any means like a chameleon
