What is the temperature in their enclosure? Do you have a thermometer in there? If not, you should get one and measure the heat. Their hot spot should be in the high 80's.
Anoles can also stay brown if they are stressed. Is this the smaller of the two? If so, does he spend any time under the heat lamp, or does the other anole spend all his time there? Is the bigger anole chasing the smaller one around at all? If any of these things are happening than your little guy is probably really stessed from being in such a small tank with another anole, especially since you dont know the sex of them.
Check the temperature and if it is not high enough, raise it...if you watch and notice that the larger anole is chasing the smaller one a lot or that he is spending all his time under the heat lamp then the smaller one might be stressed and you should try bringing the larger one back to the store and give the small one some time to feel better.
