Stupid question, I know-but after seeing Cadbury and now my own Cherry Bomb, had I not put him outside in the heat while I was changing the cages from baby caging to adult caging, I wouldn't even know he was red. What darn color is he supposed to be when he's healthy and happy? If he turns red does that mean I've done something to upset him? He is pretty agressive, but once I get him calmed down he'll let me take him out of the cage to go to his outdoor cage. When he's hissing and biting at me he puffs up, but doesn't really change color much. I know I'm an idiot, but put me out of my misery and tell me what color he's supposed to be, PLEASE!

Here's some info on it....
"Tamatave: This morph is in the southeastern extreme of the range of F. pardalis. Generally the body is dark green and is very similar to the Moroansetra morph, however they tend to have more red than orange. This morph may have the most intense red coloration of all morphs".
