Now that the new guy is settling in he is starting to show a bit of color, 2 days and 4 or 5 dozen crickets and a couple of warm baths later, also a lot of quality time under the uvb lights.

Yup he/she is certainly starting to regain some of that color. When I saw your post with the two different pics, I was surprised too see such a huge difference from yours and the ad pic. It was for sure the same dragon, but colors can be messed with. I was hoping that was not the case. It looks great though. Yup the uvb or sunlight will help color them up a bit. I saw the ad pic and it was taken outside. Mine at first when they go outside darken for about the first half hour trying to grab as much heat/rays as possible. Then after heating up they are totally light as they are trying to reflect some of the heat/sun rays at this time in the light phase their colors are so much more vibrant.
