chams use their colour to show their moods, they enhance thier colour when they see a mate, or another male to warn them off,

i heard beardies change their colour, and under their throat goes black.

my cwd goes darker greens and lighter greens

Tokays eat other smaller lizards and small snakes in the wild, so do monitors and leopard lizards (not geckos) eat each other if they look weak or very small.
