if he was warm enough then he wouldn't have to turn
dark to get warmer. He should not be black the
entire day. How high are the temps in his cage?
I mean my ig is a little darker at first in the
morning, but once his lights turn on he gets greener.
If his head is dark all day then something is wrong.

: OK,

: During the day, he is usually basking, right? well a basking IG turns darker to absorb more UV rays. Does this explain it?
